Getting My Miami Heat On [Part I]

" Y.O.L.O. - You Only Live Once, so make the most out of it!"

Hello Lovelies, 

I recently went to Miami South beach for a friend's birthday and I had a blast! I ate and ate like there's no tomorrow :). In this post, I wanted to give you an idea of what we did.

Have a wonderful Day!

TRAVEL: Let's Go to Sylvan Beach!

"Let's go to the beach, each, let's go get away. They say what they gonna say." Starships by Nicki Minaj 

Hello Lovelies,

Living Upstate New York doesn't mean, never going to the beach and get away! Although, there is no ocean around (of course), there are still several lakes with beautiful beaches for everyone to enjoy! One of my favorite is Sylvan beach.

Sylvan beach is actually a small village (a small population of approximately 900) in Oneida county, New York, USA, more specifically in the western end of the town of Vienna. The beach side is adjacent to the Erie canal and on the east shore of Oneida Lake (wiki!)

Sometimes, it's hard to find what to do here Upstate New York but there are a lot of activities to do at Sylvan Beach:

  

1. Go to the Sylvan Beach Amusement park | 2. Have fun at Turning Stone Casino & Resort (The nightclub Lava is the place to be on Fri & Sat)| 3. Visit Fort Rickey children's discovery zoo | 4. Or take a trip to the Erie Canal

 I love the Farmers Market (happens every Fri)!

Did you go to the beach this summer? I would love to see your pictures, so leave me a comment and a link to your 'beach' post!

Travel: Maui '12

Hello Lovelies,
Recently, I have been dreaming that I'm on this imaginary and beautiful island in the middle of nowhere. Food (good food) is hanging down on the trees, the water is turqoise and there are waterfalls everywhere! (Am I the only one thinking about it?)
Then, I feel a pain in the back of my neck and I end up waking up in my books (I'm studying for the MCAT). However, for my Springbreak 2012, I visited Maui, which is one of the islands of Hawaii and let's just say, it was just like my dream, it was paradise!
