Mischief, Fun, and Mayhem : Fun Times in NYC

These are just a few pics of us joking around after a free screening on 42nd street.  We passed by Ripley's Believe it or Not and got a bit carried away. 

The Fight:



The make up kiss:


He just couldn't  handle my chocolate shake:

And after I exhausted myself with my new friend here I decided to take some pics of some controversial art on a billboard around Time Square.  I remember seeing something about it on the news.



 Do these images offend you? Be honest. 

Free Screening: How To Train Your Dragon

Tonight my friends and I hit up the AMC on 42nd street to see a free advance screening of  How To Train Your Dragon.  Besides the giggling of a few dozen kids it was a pretty good movie.  We didn't get to see it in 3D but all in all it was a fun filled night.  Something to take your kids, cousins, nephew, and nieces. 



Of course we couldn't limit ourselves to one movie so we sneakily made our way into Repo Man which was a good movie.  There was a surprise twist at the end that definitely left me satisfied, and seeing it made everything fall into place.  Something you should see.  It was action packed, bloody, had tons of irony, and was humorous but serious at the same time.  One tip, never get organs on credit.  Giving it back isn't going to be as easy or painless and there's going to be twitching...then you sort of die. Enjoy!

RedBook Beauty Bash 2010

Hey.  I'm going to be trying something new.  My gal pals and I always go to events, movie screenings,  beauty bash's, and tons of free events.  I wanted to make a blog that highlights all the fun things there are to experience in NYC on the cheap, so lets beginning.



Saturday March 20th was the RedBook Beauty Bash at the Metropolitan Pavilion.  From 11am - 4pm women had the opportunity to sip, sit, and relax for a day of cocktails, swag bags, and pampering.  My friend and I arrived about a hour and a half before the event began so we were right in front. Of course we made some friends on the line.  Don't you love when women share event secrets? I do.  We definitely left there with more then we bargained for.  The event was beautiful.  Upon enter we arrived in an all white room, with white flowing curtains, decorated with huge glass jars filled to the brim with bright green apples.  They had everything.  From shoulder massages, to mini manicures, eye treatments, a brow bar, mini make overs, and hand massages to name a few.  Throughout the event we sipped on Blood Orange Bellinis, needless to say I left there a little tipsy.  We even tried some organic fruit and vegetable juice blend used for cleansing and losing weight.  The admission to the event was $15 but we bought the tickets a few days in advance and paid only $10.  It was worth ever cent. I left there with a mini manicure, nail polish provided by Essie and a soothing shoulder massage.  Heaven on earth.  I even rubbed noses with Daisy Fuentes who was promoting her new book.  All in all an awesome good time.
