And a lot of this:

That’s all.

But my friends do love food :]. If you’ve talked to me about NY, my number one peeve is how hard it is to make good friends here.

People get stuck in “bubbles” very easily. Even though you are CONSTANTLY meeting new people in this city. It’s pretty hard to make new good friends. You might have a group that you see consistently.. but when it comes to that new cool person you met the other day, you might not see them again for another 3 months when you randomly decide to catch up. Ironically I think I meet the most interesting people online randomly via craigslist (no, not in the “looking for platonic relationships section”) but the exchanges made when I’m shopping around for unique pieces for my room (YESTERDAY I ACQUIRED MY LADDER. Bo Concept for 20 dollars buahaha. Refer to this blog post. 2nd image numero 4). Or for example, my first really good friend in New York was someone I was supposed to room with but things didn’t end up working out. He ended up being my best friend - two strangers on craigslist looking for a bloody place to live in this gosh darn city. haha.

I know some awesome people who do awesome things. So why not share?

Work’s been slow the past 2 weeks due to everyone being down in Hollywood for Oscars. So I thought I’d squeeze in another quick post. Friends inspired this quick one…

Oh!

And go check out Vanity Fair’s Oscar’s App. I’m actually excited for Oscars this year! I watched majority of the movies nominated! (- pats self on back-) In the app you’re able to vote for who you think will win, and once the Oscar’s air, our app will have behind the scene footage and live updates that’ll sync up with who you voted for! Check it :] You can get it for free here or just search for Oscars in your apps!
