About Me

Currently an undergraduate majoring in Economics at NYU. I was born and raised in NYC, so the city has been [and still is] my playground. Since I love writing, I've decided to start this blog with my restaurant/nightlife reviews. Enjoy!

Hobbies
I love writing, trying out new restaurants, hip hop and r&b music, playing piano/guitar/drums, horror movies and chick flicks, attempting to cook, rollerblading, running, crossword puzzles, and doing anything outdoors when it's sunny. I'm the type who's down for anything/everything as long as it's a new or fun experience!

Favorite Quotes
"Aut viam inveniam aut faciam." (Either I will find a way, or I will make one.)
"Volat alis propriis" (She flies with her own wings)
"What Joanna wants, Joanna gets." -TieBo
"I know you told me break their hearts.. but it's you I wanna tear apart" -Drake
"I can resist anything but temptation." -Oscar WIlde

I know the feeling all too well. Unfortunately there are some girls in Atlanta that treat their skin like we're in Cali! Ha it's bad.
