5 on Friday: Dooms Day

According to Harold Camping tomorrow, May 21st, is supposed to be the end of the world. Well, if that’s the case then I highly suggest we all go out with a bang. It may be short notice to some but there’s plenty of time to live out the last hours of your life to the fullest.
5 Things to Do before the World Ends:
1)      Skydive: This adrenaline rush is top on my list. To be able to get the nerve to jump out of a plane 10,000 feet up in the air sounds like the biggest thrill. I think this would be an amazing moment to actually be able to fly.

Guitless dessert... Opa!

Remember when you were a kid on a hot summer day and nothing was more satisfying than an ice cold Popsicle? Unfortunately, as adults those summer days are a bit different now seeing as though we don't get to spend every day running through the sprinklers and up and down the slip-n-slide. Nor do we have that speedy metabolism to be able to eat all of those delicious popsicles (not most of us at least). But good news people!

Viva Italia!

My parents and I took the long and much anticipated flight from New York to Rome to being our Italian expedition. We started in Rome not missing a single museum or monument. There was an overwhelming feeling of contentment right from the start.

Que the Cuervo!

Buenos Dias, amigos!
Yes, I'm early but it's never too early to prep and get started. I’m not Mexican but I certainly enjoy partaking in their Independence Day and festivities. If I didn’t have to be at work, I would be celebrating all day. I would dust off the ol’ giant sombrero and be dancing around with my little Mexican rat (aka Lola my Chihuahua) to a mariachi band. There’d be no waiting for happy hour because it would last all day.
