  1. confessions

    *Originally published April 16th, 2009*
    Have you ever screwed someone over, and yourself over, so completely and mercilessly you just know you’re going to hell? We’re talking slept-with-the-best-friend-of-a-man-you-could-have-potentially-loved. I could have fallen in love with Bassist. Wiry, confident, smirking with kisses like little tickles. Even in the short time we knew each other, I felt in [...]




  2. Maternal Instincts

    I’ve never been the type of girl to fantasize about my future family and my white picket fence. For a long time, I didn’t even think I’d have children. I love taking care of children and have been nannying for years, but never saw myself nurturing my own. Babies sort of freak me out with [...]




  3. Standards…What are yours?

    I don’t consider myself to have impossible standards when looking for a potential mate. I value simple things, like honesty, empathy, and generosity. However, there are a few qualities a man must posses for my interest to be held; lucky for me, after much trial and error, I found someone who goes above and beyond [...]




  4. A day in the life…

    …Not quite.

    I am at Boston University studying opera, and will graduate with a BM in Vocal Performance. More than a few non-musicians have asked me what exactly I do at school. “Do you just sing all day?” “Do you break mirrors singing high notes?” “When do you actually start working on your major?” “You’re not [...]




  5. Life Lesson #894

    I’m hanging out at home. I decide to indulge in a chocolate chip cookie and a tall glass of delightful, creamy milk. Not fifteen minutes later, I forget about my previous snack and go foraging for something else. I decide to make myself a fake Bloody Mary, using V8 and a lot of tabasco sauce. [...]




  6. makeup shmakeup: the must haves and the must nots

    I remember the day my mother bought me my very own make up. I was in fifth grade, and had been sneaking experimentations with her lipstick and eye shadow for about a year. I don’t remember the reason I was deemed mature enough to begin my own make up collection, but one day after school [...]




  7. Survival Kit for the Party Girl – Get One

    You don’t have to be a Scout to always be prepared. Take it from someone who knows…there are a few key items every girl should have in her purse that will make waking up after a night of drinking a lot easier.
    Condoms. You’re drunk. You’re horny. You go home with who you think to be [...]




  8. The Wake-Up Mix: Get Your Ass Out of Bed

    Most days, I usually don’t bolt out of bed with a grin on my face. I grumble, I mope, I doze for another five minutes, until I finally drag my sleepy ass out of bed. However, once up, I make a bee-line for my laptop and make sure the following songs are playing:
    1. “Zero” – [...]

  11. The Break-Up Guide for Girls: Moving Up and Moving On

    No matter who does the dumping, break-ups suck and provide hours – if not days and months – of despair for one or both parties involved. Regardless of the reasons for the initial break-up, hearts are broken, enemies can be made, tears will be shed, nasty texts are sent, and you might just feel like [...]

    Liv: What top five songs [...]




  14. How to resemble BarbieBot!

    Girls, have you ever wanted to look like a real-life Barbie doll? Do you want your already-fantastic body pumped with Botox?

  17. Boston Fashion Week 2009: Betsey Johnson

    Boston doesn’t host the same spectacularly star-studded, haute couture saturated fashion week as NYC or Paris, for examples, but our week aims to feature the local industry and the big timers. The Betsey Johnson shop is a staple of Newbury Street, Boston’s premiere shopping district. On Wednesday, Sept. 30th, the design house took over Boston [...]

  21. keep your banana in your pants, mister

    “Why do you love me?”
     
    “I think it’s the way you love me back.”
     
    “How so?”
     
    “You know it’s indefinable, it’s simply it. It’s the way your mom shows me how to use the special spaghetti fork, and the way she yells at you in front of me, and the way she tells me to change your sheets. [...]

  24. The Neave Does Autumn 2009

    I feel truly blessed to live in New England and to reap the benefits of all four seasons. There is nothing like inhaling magnolia blossoms in springtime, sailing the ocean in a hot breeze in the summer, carving pumpkins and admiring the foliage in autumn, and skiing down powder slopes in winter. In honor of [...]

    In honor of the weekend, let’s start it off right (or wrong) by learning what not to say or do (or what to do or say, depending on how you like your weekends.) Here are my ten favorite texts from last night (click here to visit the site), in no particular order, from the last [...]
