The 60’s & The Harvard Psychedelic Club

by NadiaJanuary 14, 2010

Merry Christmas, “The Guitar” & Being Authentic

by NadiaDecember 24, 2009

There are no accidents in life. Things happen for reasons and even though you may not know the reason right away, it will become apparent when it is the right time. Being unemployed has been a huge blessing for me. At first, I was happy to get a break from the usual routine and take [...]
