Beach Bum in the Big Apple Part 2: Self discovery in New York
Living with a bunch of strangers is the best way to discover who you really are. Luckily, I’m what you would call a “people person.” And thankfully, having an extrovert personality has helped me connect with a good core group of friends at my apartment building and at school. The funny thing is, it’s weird meeting people … Continue reading
Thanks for nothing, Jerry Springer
*Opinion* Call it trashy…lewd…pointless even. An embarrassment to American society, maybe. I call it… entertaining. I don’t mean to condone this type of television behavior, but it’s like a train wreck to me and I just can’t look away. Jerry Springer, Steve Wilkos and Maury Povich have become dear friends to me this summer. I … Continue reading
The penis and the bachelorette
*Opinion* The bachelorette started cracking up when her maid of honor handed her a wand, saying she had to carry it around throughout her bachelorette party. It was pink with ribbons, topped off with an erect penis. All of us girls were giggling at the penis wand, passing it around, putting it in each other’s … Continue reading
23 random realizations by age 23
*Opinion* In case we’re not friends in real life or on Facebook, you may not have known my birthday was on April 5. I am now 23. I happily accepted 23 with the same excitement I gave 21, 18 and 16. Though my good friend Mike, whose birthday was a week after mine, said he … Continue reading
Going with your gut
*Opinion* He knew he made the right decision. He thought she was hot and they had their good times in those three years together but after he found out she was cheating, he got a bad taste in his mouth and a sharp pain in his chest. He ended it and felt pretty good about … Continue reading
Nicky Poo… Nobody does Halloween better
*Opinion* Blah blah blah… everyone knows that girls take it upon themselves to look extra slutty on Halloween. Slutty bee…slutty police officer…slutty Red Riding Hood…slutty cat. The only problem I see with this is that I hardly ever see guys get slutty for Halloween, or go “all out” in general. There’s a lack of shock … Continue reading
The Adult Toy Party Experience
Most of the vibrators looked harmless. Some had beads in the shafts and some had birds, dolphins or rabbits on the sides of them for some clit stimulating. But when she pulled out the $144 “Endless Pleasure,” I almost ran screaming. This beast was huge…I mean it was a monster. With a hummingbird on the side of it, this guy had a thrusting shaft and everything. It could either give a girl the orgasm of her life or send her to the hospital for ripping her a new one. Literally.
Icebreakers and deal breakers
*Opinion* There are definitely bad ways to approach a woman. Use a pickup line if you have to, but this particular night, a few days ago when my friend Lo and I went to Catch 31, I met a guy who gave me the worst first impression ever. Sitting at a table close to the … Continue reading
Bill O’Reilly vs. Jennifer Aniston vs. the biological clock
Jennifer Aniston said, “Women are realizing more and more that you don’t have to settle. They don’t have to fiddle with a man to have a child. They are realizing if it’s that time in their life and they want this part they can do it with or without that,” according to the article by Marikar and Morison.
Speeding tickets and beating the system
*Opinion* In movies women have played “naive” and “sexy” to get out of speeding tickets, or any ticket. I always thought I would cry and the officer would feel so bad for me he or she would let me go. I never thought to try showing cleavage to get out of a ticket; then again … Continue reading
