Gone in 60 Seconds
When I wrote about my first date with Marquee a few weeks ago, I failed to mention that I returned to the club the very next night. My pride only just got out of rehab.This time, I was there for another event. I’ll be honest: I don’t even know what the specifics were--only that it had something to d …

Delayed Out of Nowhere Depression
This past weekend I was a victim of DOND (Delayed Out of Nowhere Depression). I’m still not entirely sure I’ve survived.DOND takes a sneak-attack, python-strong grip on your being. You often won’t know what hit you. All you will know is that words like ‘rehab,’ ‘a straight jacket,’ and ‘mental clini …

Ten Reasons to Check Out Bijoux
I was one of the last people to get on the Bijoux bandwagon as the club’s launch coincided with my temporary retreat from society. Too bad, because the place is a lot of fun. Several new locales have launched in the past months including RDV and Greenhouse, both of which I’ll be formulating written …

Experiencing Bagatelle
For people who want a side of club music with their dinner experience and can actually afford to pay for their meal instead of attending promoter charity dinners like the ones I’ve written about at One, Bagatelle is the place to be. It’s a meatpacking block away and while One and Bagatelle have noth …

Objects in the Mirror May Be Larger Than They Appear
I was having a good week. It wasn’t so much that things were going my way, but my demeanor was partly sunny with a very low chance of precipitation. I’ve been concentrating on a more care-free attitude, an attempt to perspire less over life’s minor details. The fact that I’m actively working on sett …

Dating by Hair Style
Most of us can admit to having ‘a type,’ an ideal of what we think we’re attracted to. No matter how much we hold onto it, we’ll all at some point surprise ourselves by being attracted to someone who doesn’t fit our ‘type’ definition. Obviously. Because its actually scented pheromones that gover …

Cain Now With a ‘Luxe’
I was flabbergasted when Jamie Mulholland and Jayma Cardosa announced they were gutting and redecorating 27th street nightclub Cain. Sure, 27th street isn’t what it used to be, but from what I could see, safari-themed Cain wasn’t suffering. The music was always preppy, the promoters plentiful and th …

The Rambling Road
Friday Evening, 9:00 p.m.Port Authority Bus TerminalI am sitting on a Greyhound Bus. We were supposed to leave an hour ago. The girl behind me starts to lose her composure.“Can’t we just, like, leave?” She says to no one in particular. “We’re like an hour late.”She has one of those grating voices ma …

Halloween Decor Winner & Political Fun
The thing about Halloween landing on a Friday this year is that it gave people the excuse to make it a weekend long event. For some, face painting and sugar-highs started as early as Thursday. I’ve written in the past about how I’m not a huge Halloween fan. I created a cop-out excuse last year …

Why Do Losers Always Win?
Last week, my friend and I were complaining about how the guy she's been dating never wants to take her out anymore. Dinners and a movie, yes. But the kind of wild nightlife fun they used to have with their friends when first dating, no. His point is that going to a club with a girl you're seri …

Voting, Whoooo!
OK, confession. I voted last election, yet today when I entered my polling booth after surviving a verrry long line, I had no idea what to do. There were so many levers! I felt like I was in front of a crane-operating machine. I glance at restaurant menus multiple times just to locate …

Yes Marquee Can
After being in New York for nearly three months, my social scene remains somewhat limited. While MMB tends to frequent the most exclusive nightclubs in the city, her little sister is reluctant to venture out of the East Village. I’m comfortable in the scene I refer to as NYU.S.A.—an address that’s …

Burned
Last weekend, I ventured skeptically back to Lit. A previous post about my first night at Lit was a rather glowing review, but don’t assume that I’ve been spending most my life living in a hipster’s paradise (yes, that was a Coolio reference). My second encounter with the bar left me burned.It was a …

What’s the Deal with Online Dating?
This is a question I don’t have the expertise to answer, rather a quandary that’s buzzing through my group of friends. I don’t know if it’s the changing weather, the financial crisis, an across-the-board craving for stability, or the fact that we’re all just getting older, but in the past few weeks …

Interview & New Years, Already
Last week, I got in a healthy debate with one of my friends about if nightlife was a worthless whirlwind of debauchery or a powerful networking tool. I argued that anyone you met in a club was probably sleazy and untrustworthy. Only regrettable activities resulted from frolicking around New York at …
