I haven't been writing because...

I was here


Now I am back. I have been back for two weeks now and I have finally snapped back into nyc pace. The first few days I got back were depressing, as is the usual case when one goes on vacation and comes back to reality. It took me a week to accept why I like living here, but there are events happening this weekend that have gotten me excited for the summer and what it brings to the city.


Meme award ceremony at Eyebeam tomorrow, June 18 from 6-8pm. $10 entrance fee, free if you dress for the red carpet.


From June 12 through September 26, site specific artwork from 25 emerging and established artists can be seen throughout Coney Island.
