Weekend Reading

This week has been very busy, I mean dragging, between projects and filling up new calendars. I finally feel like there might be some light at the end of this tunnel. I mean week. But here are some things I came across: Last week, I read a random piece by Richard Hyfler on Forbes which made me think about looking for things in the wrong places. Sometimes what you are looking for is right in front of you. In the self-help, since this week was dragging here are 4 questions everyone should ask themselves from The Everygirl. Right after that, read Cracked's 6 harsh truths . In that order. It may just change your life. In things to look forward to Carrie Bradshaw has her own Manolo shoe line and it is almost here. Don't worry, the Coveteur captured it for us [ here ]. Collection will be out Feb. 28th at Nordstrom :) Check out this girl's career dreams ! I get it. PS. I may keep doing these every week.

Voyage: Bridgeport, CT USA

I have been on trips before but never really wrote about it. Probably a lost opportunity, months ago I had a job which literally required me to live out of a hotel room for about 4-5 months. But that is enough with missed opportunities. I have turned a corner and now, will take my own advice and take more trips and pictures (all my favourite things) So, Bridgeport. I had never been there. Since it is the holiday season, to be precise Thanksgiving weekend (American Holiday), why not visit. As the semi pre-cautious person that I am, I looked up some information about the area and stumbled upon some websites where I could get to know the area before I got there. It seems like a very decent place to live on the coast. As much as I wanted to take pictures, it was so cold that staying at home eating was much more appealing. The one time we left to go sightseeing, I had left my camera at home. I would have had many more pictures if I had planned for the freezing weather! So,
