Crash and Burn

By urbanblitz • Aug 24th, 2003 • Category: Daily Musing

This past week, I’ve been functioning on pure caffeine. And have literally been going through an up and down energy cycle. Which ended in me zonking out on train on my way home on Friday



The Big Scare

By urbanblitz • Aug 24th, 2003 • Category: Daily Musing

This past Saturday, I went to a Japanese restaurant with my friend NC. And I had given her a big scare. I was having some soft shell crab. And within 5 minutes, I had a severe allergic reaction. I broke out in slight hives, but the thing that probably really scared me the most was [...]



Old Friend

By urbanblitz • Aug 24th, 2003 • Category: Daily Musing

While I was shopping around the Lower East Side today, I bumped into an old friend. A few weeks ago, while I was out with my friend I ended up petting a pitbull. Of course, you don’t realize how dangerous that can be when you’re inebriated. I remembered it was a white pitbull with a [...]



Me vs. The Fly

By urbanblitz • Aug 19th, 2003 • Category: Daily Musing

I’m sitting in front of my computer. When this humongous mosquito decides to waltz into my room. I have no idea where it went. But I know when I see that little bugger, it’s going to be saying hello to my fly swat. All I can do, is look around my room for it. It’s [...]



In My Seat

By urbanblitz • Aug 17th, 2003 • Category: Straphanger Chronicles

I was on my way home, when this guy had sat next to me on the train. He had the nerve to move his ass into my half of the seat. Like I wasn’t going to notice. Seriously, just because I’m tiny, doesn’t mean I don’t my space. Well anyway, I gave him the stare. [...]



Blackout ‘03

By urbanblitz • Aug 15th, 2003 • Category: Essentially NY

I know the title is so unoriginal. So bite me! I mean that figuratively. I thought I might point that out before you get any ideas. Well it all started out when my co-worker Scott and I was in dire need of caffeine. And we headed over to Barnes and Noble cafe to get our [...]



Summer Reading List

By urbanblitz • Aug 13th, 2003 • Category: Daily Musing

As summer comes to a close, I realized I haven’t done much summer reading this year. Currently, I’m reading two books, one is for work while the other is for fun. The second book is a trashy romance novel by Jacqueline Susann. She’s the Candace Bushnell of the 60s. Unlike Bushnell her book was turned [...]



Ring..ring

By urbanblitz • Aug 13th, 2003 • Category: Rant & Rave

Today, I had to make a bunch telemarketing calls for work. And let me just say, I have a new admiration for telemarketers. How do they do it? By 3 o’clock I already had a pounding headache and my throat was just killing me. To imagine, telemarketers make these calls day in and day out. [...]



The Bag

By urbanblitz • Aug 13th, 2003 • Category: Shopping

I’ve been in search for the perfect gym bag. So I was so excited, when my friend Christine had dropped off the Herve Chapelier shoulder bag she got me from Paris. I was able to fit all my gym stuff and more. That evening, while I was walking to the train station, I had spotted [...]



Turn Back Time

By urbanblitz • Aug 3rd, 2003 • Category: Rant & Rave

The other week, I went down to Chinatown to find a beach mat at Pearl River. It turns out they had relocated to Soho. When I stepped into the store, my first response was what happened to the Pearl River of the yester years. Pearl River market has always been one of New York City’s [...]
