So I recently found a great new artist to listen to. His music is a mix of balkan and jazz. What a perfect combination of genres for the heavy brass music of Ibrahim Maalouf. He’s an Arabic trumpet player/composer who lives in France. So there is a great mélange of culture that also comes out […]

Running Late…WIN!
It’s happened to you before. First, you wake up an hour late and end up running around the house brushing your teeth and combing your hair simultaneously while somehow managing to pull on jeans and stuff your head through a t-shirt. Then, you grab your bag and a bottle of water, you stuff your feet […]
Denial
Recipe of the Week: Shawarma Denial is a powerful, defense mechanism. Over the years, I’ve found that denial is the single most frustrating emotion I’ve ever experienced. Because I refuse to admit that anything is wrong, I incorrectly interpret my desires and actions, and go around confusing myself into oblivion. Talk about a lack of […]
Days of Being Mild

Have some […]

Where is the social responsibility that humanity shares to give the BEST CARE POSSIBLE to all humans? Have politics and financial gain really taken over all personal, moral rights and obligations? 20% […]
Spring Time?
Recipe of the Week: Cheese Borek I would book a flight on the only day New York City was expecting snow during spring break. I planned this trip to Florida about a month ago expecting to leave New York spring weather and arrive in nice Florida heat. That is not what happened. Not only did […]
And The Clock Struck Twelve
And just like that, we’re snapped back to reality. In just a few hours, we’re trudging back to classes, blinking at the professor as they gesture emphatically to the PowerPoint slides, wondering why they’re so enthusiastic when they know your brain is still skipping in la-la-land and probably won’t be back until tomorrow. Ahhh, what […]
