Fun is Tempting

Alex:  I was waiting for my roomie Janae, she's a Minoqua Bat, to come home from work so we could go out and play. Our friend just flew in from New York and we all couldn't be more excited for the reunion. As I killed time until she got home, I started reading the book Chemistry of Calm. I was 17 pages in when it happened. Creativity struck and an idea for my pilot surfaced. ...

Holiday Blues

Tuesday, December 10, 2013 , , , , 0

Alex:  This Thanksgiving was my first holiday away from home. There are some things I knew I wouldn’t miss like the clean up and cold weather. But there are a lot of things that I knew I would miss; my grandma’s perfectly mashed potatoes with a touch of garlic, the sound of papa’s electric knife cutting the turkey, football on the big screen, the array of desserts we could choose from after dinner, the festive ...

Happy Birthday Mentor!

Alex:  Nik, I’m so lucky and thankful that our worlds have crossed paths. You inspire me in more ways than one. You make me laugh and you’re there for me when I cry. You are one of the strongest women I have ever met and the rock for so many people. I don’t know how you do it. Happy Birthday! I look forward to celebrating many more birthdays together! :)

Nik:  You know what’s fun about saying yes to random party invites in LA? You sometimes meet nice people who just launched a hair care line and they want to give you full size samples for your feedback. Here’s my feedback Mitch Stone: Love. I smell like Hawaii and I’m super happy about it because I’m freezing my tatas off in Wisconsin right now.

Baby You A Song…

Alex:  As much as I love the view of fall in Wisconsin, driving in California is like having a computer screen background around you at all times. My roommate Janae, she’s on the ski team Minocqua Bats in Wisconsin, has a convertible. I feel spoiled. We drive around with the top down, music blaring, sunnies on, hair blowing in the wind and as often as possible we throw our hands in the air and wave ...

I’m obsessed with… The Stowaway Case

Friday, November 22, 2013 , , , , 0

Alex:  No one brings a big purse to the clubs. Whenever I go out dancing, I stuff my ID, credit card, phone, and house key into the smallest purse I have. BAD IDEA. Every time I would take my phone out of my purse something would fall out. I lost my ID a month ago and had to order a new one. It was like Christmas every morning running to the mailbox to see ...

Geographically Desirable

Thursday, November 21, 2013 , , , , 0

Alex:  Why does it have to be so difficult to meet up in this city!? I live on the west side, closer to the ocean, and the majority of people I have met or knew before I moved here live on the east side, closer to Hollywood or Studio City. At first the traffic didn’t bother me, but now it’s what is killing my friendships with people! That may be a bit of an exaggeration, but I can’t tell you how many times I’ve wanted to meet up with someone, but didn’t because of traffic. Forget crossing the 405 anytime between 2pm to 8pm. That leaves a small window of time to hang. It sucks! Don’t even bother trying to make dinner plans anymore. The only people I can see regularly are those I live with or those who live west of the 405. Sad face. Maybe
