As part of my job description and my innate desire to live like a gypsy, I once in a while trade in my 47″ Plasma TV and a beautiful house in the Hollywood Hills for an 8′ x 12′ stark white room with a baker’s rack and stolen Internet connection, in a Puerto Rican Co-op in Brooklyn. I’m a baller on a budget, a catcher of seedless rye bread baked at the corner Bodega, I’m a girl, I’m a woman and I’m curious about the world and the people who live on it.

Life is a creative process. We choose how to live our lives every second most likely not even thinking about it, my friend just told me about this five-second thing she learned. I’ll tell you about it in short; that everyone has five-seconds to live. Essentially every moment you have lasts five-seconds because in the time you waste thinking about life all that matters is your five-seconds, so make them great.
