Things To Worry About
From ListsofNote.com -
In 1933, renowned author F. Scott Fitzgerald ended a letter to his 11-year-old daughter, Scottie, with a list of things to worry about, not worry about, and simply think about. It read as follows. (Source: F. Scott Fitzgerald: A Life in Letters; Image: F. Scott Fitzgerald with his daughter, Scottie, in 1924.) Things to worry about: Worry about courage Worry about...

Drugstore Gems
|$|
This is the perfect lip balm for a hint of color during the day ; it’s subtle, has an SPF of 15, and is hydrating. This can work for nighttime, too, but just swipe a coat of clear gloss on for a little shine. I’m slightly addicted to the Sunny Berry shade. About $8-$9 a pop.
While NARS Orgasm Blush is infamously known for creating the sought-after celeb glow, it’s...

Can I have a tall Skinny Vanilla Latte with one...
Food for thought: According to this recent blog entry on Forbes.com, If you buy lunch everyday at work, you could be spending $72,000 throughout your career. Coffee everyday? Oh, you’ll probably spend $14,000+
Needless to say, people can buy enough overpriced salads and sandwiches to equal a college tuition. Bon appétit!

J.D. Salinger, 91, Is Dead - ArtsBeat Blog -... →
peterwknox:
The statement added: “Salinger had remarked that he was in this world but not of it. His body is gone but the family hopes that he is still with those he loves, whether they are religious or historical figures, personal friends or fictional characters.”
Here’s what I had to say: Rubbing out the last “Fuck You” in the world…

Happy Thanksgiving :)
Stumbled on this article:

It still makes me nervous being a journalism student in my senior year. Where is this all going to lead?

Breaking & Entering:Jay Sean
my latest article—
Jay Sean, born Kamaljit Singh Jhooti (try saying that three times fast), has been charting internationally for years. Now, the London-born singer/songwriter is ready to conquer the states.
His first single, “Down,” featuring Lil Wayne, is currently No. 6 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, jumping from No. 63 to No. 32 before landing at its latest spot.

I’m on deadline, sitting in a Barnes & Nobles, but I just can’t focus.I bought a toffee mocha frapp and an almond biscotti at Starbucks (although overpriced), thinking that this would help me get started. Nope. Still no creative juices flowing…
What do you do to get started on papers, assignments or anything you need to get done?

The Fray / Nikon @ Jones Beach theater
At 7 p.m. as the show was scheduled to begin, Jones Beach Theater was ghostly empty. Unaffected by the almost empty arena, opening act, Richard Swift carried himself with poise as he sang to the few concert goers that were present. In the massive outdoor arena that sits on water, he performed, “The Atlantic Ocean,” off his latest album. Waltzing between deep monotone sounds to lighter sounding...

My Young Money- "Every Girl" review on... →
Young Money — better known as the rappers Lil Wayne, Drake, Jae Millz, Gudda Gudda and Mack Maine — reaches new heights of lyrical ambition on its summer anthem. It also leaves little to the imagination. But unlike Wayne’s other sexually-charged hits (“Lollipop,” “Mrs. Officer”) this song disappoints. Read more…

Could you survive without money?
“”But what good would it do for me to be a sadhu in India? A true test of faith would be to return to one of the most materialistic, money-worshipping nations on earth and be a sadhu there. To be a vagabond in America, a bum, and make an art of it—the idea enchanted me.” A great article by Christopher Ketcham— read more here

Let me put you on : Maxwell "BLACKsummersnight"
After a nearly eight-year hiatus, Maxwell’s back with the soulful melodies that captured our attention years ago. Meaningful lyrics, falsettos that only he could hit, and a fresh sound that isn’t muffled with Auto-tune craziness. “Pretty Wings” and “Fistful of Tears” come in close on this album, but his classic, “This Woman’s Work” will always...

Melanie Fiona
Growing up in Toronto as a first generation child of Guyanese immigrants may be hard to balance for most. But for singer Melanie Fiona, it provided her with the best of both worlds.
“West Indian cultural mentality and a North American life equals the perfect balance,” says Fiona. Her traditional upbringing could have easily pegged her into — as she jokes — having a...
