This past month I’ve been going through what can only be described as a quarter life crisis. Like full blown meltdown, and it’s not pretty. As I see my peers get engaged, buy houses and excel in their careers my Brooklyn apartment that I share with two roommates and precarious love life leave me feeling vastly inadequate. … Continue Reading
All my life I’ve been plagued with oily skin. The thought of reaching into my purse and realizing that I’d forgotten my blotting papers would certainly send me into a downward spiral.
