LIFE: Wendy Williams x “Ask Wendy” Book Release Party x Pink Elephant (5.9.13)

After the Frank 151 Panel Discussion ended, I decided to run around the corner to check out Miss Wendy Williams Book Launch at the new Pink Elephant. As you might imagine, it was star-studded and overflowing with decadent desserts and drinks! I didn’t get to meet Miss Wendy, but our day will come! I was glad to have been invited!

Me & DJ Kiss

Don’t let her beauty fool you, she is a monster on the 1′s and 2′s. Seriously.

I didn’t stay too long. I had a date with some work, sweatpants and my couch…so I headed home early.

LIFE: Frank 151 Leaders Panel x Barnes & Noble USQ x Nick Tershay, Stephen Malbon, Adam Pasulka & Me (5.9.13)

Frank 151 has been a staple in my life since high school. The miniature publication started it’s circulation in 1999 and recently went from being an underground bible to an accessible publication sold at local Barnes and Nobles (now slightly larger)! How’s that for convenient. When they asked me to be apart of their panel discussion on “Leaders”, I was definitely down! Especially since I had just interviewed Jonathan Mannion for that very issue. 

I hate public speaking engagements because I’m not very good at it, or at least I don’t think so. I’m better one on one answering questions. Regardless, I was honored to be apart of the panel and answered various questions to the best of my abilities!

Dweeb.

I met some amazing supporters at the event! I was super stoked. These two lovely Filipina girls from San Diego brought me my favorite raw/vegan cookies from One Lucky Duck. It was so sweet of them!

LIFE: DJ’ing at 1OAK Alongside DJ Huggy Bear x 212 Tuesdays

212 TUESDAYS return, this time around to 1OAK. If you live in New York and don’t bother with fancy clubs, your asking yourself the same thing I asked myself  ”1OAK is still around”? I had no idea, no shade. Regardless, the addition of 212 TUESDAYS will make your work week dip worth it. Trust.

DJ Huggy Bear & DJ Curry Fingers

I absolutely hate my hair in a single ponytail, but having no time on your hand will make you do things you normally wouldn’t. I guess it doesn’t look so bad. I’ve also gained some weight back, but I’m still looking a little crypt keeper-ish.

The Crew!

Huggles playing the jams.

Awesome. Let’s all look at the people who spent 700$ on a bottle of Grey Goose that actually costs like 65$ in real life. Woo hoo.

I was obsessed with popping these bottles…they were actual glass bottles of Jana! Super fancy. Guess what will be on my rider next time I’m booked! Mhmmm.

LIFE: Saturday Brooklyn Bowling with a Spring-Time Cold

A couple weeks ago, my sister came to visit me. We did some hanging in Brooklyn and went for a Saturday afternoon Bowl. I was suffering from a cold or bad allergies, so I wasn’t much fun and I looked like death. But…here are some flicks! Yay!

Bad News Bears.

FUNNY: Jimmy Kimmel x LIE Witness News x Coachella

I busted a gut laughing so hard at this video. It also helps that I have a disinterest in music festivals, despite the fact that they do host a slew of amazing artists. Something about festival culture just isn’t my thing…

LISTEN: Astr – “Operate” (NEW)

ASTR has quickly become my favorite new musical duo. With R&B inspired melodies mixed with electronic grooves, it’s hard to believe that they won’t be an overnight and instant hit. Check out their debut song “Operate”. Let me know what you think!
