Los Alchemy: 2 Marriages & a Gay Guy →
So last week, I went with a good friend to look for her wedding dress. I’ll never forget the expression on her face when her consultant showed her to the dressing area. She was about to try on dresses for her wedding!
He hung several wedding dresses on a rack as she walked in. Her eyes showed…
I know there are a lot of different schools of thought on this entire issue (including those...

“It was six-day weeks of just, like, coming home at night fuckin’ battered...”
– - Joseph Gordon-Levitt on filming the hallway scene. They constructed a 100-ft rotating corridor. Nolan described it as throwing Joe in a hamster wheel to beat him up. Worth it, in the end, to create the most oft-talked about action sequence in the film…

Personality Test →
Thanks to john-christian for providing me another reason to procrastinate. These Summer Camp materials will never be complete.

K-Town The Reality Show →
Um. Yeah… I don’t know. Jersey Shore is horrible enough, this just looks like another trainwreck waiting to happen.

World's Worst Theme Parks →
Another great find on my newsfeed (thanks to fellow expat John who will likely never read this because I try to avoid mentioning I have a blog).
Guess which park I want to visit?! That’s right. Dickens World.
Remember that Promised Land theme park the Duggers went to on that TLC show 20 Kids and Counting… how did that not make the list?!

MYRADVENTURES: Going to China this summer?! READ... →
If you plan on going to China in the near future, DON’T purchase your flights ‘til you research the new requirements for obtaining a visa. I don’t know the specifics since I’m not traveling there anytime soon, but my friend Jenny just purchased non-refundable plane tickets for two separate trips…
I literally JUST bought my tickets the week before this happened AND am now applying for a...
