adventures of mascarah.

I've just begun a new decade. Sigh.

I have always wanted to be "a writer" but I'm lost somewhere in the prologue...whittling away at a story I may never tell.

Likes: pop culture. my chihuahua. architecture. modern art. elizabeth street. contemporary designer apparel. food. travel. foreign films. speakeasys. live music. politics. hot sauce. surprises. running in the rain. strangers. wednesdays. fearlessness...and 100s of other random things... maybe even you.

A southerner by birth, northerner by the grace of God, I'm simply a nyc gal who is lost somewhere on my constant exploration of the city and the life,love, and pursuit found within it.

Jay Z- Big Pimpin’

You know how sometimes if you close your eyes a song can just transport you to a place or moment in time?

This song was the anthem of one of my spring breaks (Acapulco - those were the days, not a care in the world). Years later, everytime I hear it my head starts to bob and I can’t help but want to put on a bikini, head to the nearest beach, light up a cigar, drink a fruity cold alcoholic beverage with an umbrella, and waste the day away.

Or just get in my car and drive, pop it in the cd player, turn the volume up as loud as I can, pretend I’m behind the wheel of a Maybach rather than a Volvo… and for 4 minutes and 47 seconds, I’m Beyonce. :)
