Hey babes! I’m Shaye — professional yapper, fueled by popcorn, tequila, and unpopular opinions. Constantly trolling the trolls because don’t come for me unless I send for you. Anywho, this little itty bitty piggy went to market site of mineeee … *sigh* Let’s try this again. A little more normal this time, shall we?
Hi, I’m Shaye, your new fave NYC Entertainment Blogger, and I’m the owner of this here blog, which I hope will become one of your favorite online spaces for all things escapism. I love yapping about movies, food, drinks, and fun experiences, ’cause adulting is GHETTO, and we can all use a little more joy each day.
So this is where you start … if you’re looking to hit pause on adulting for a few moments and find an excuse to escape adulthood, for a few mins, or days.
How to Navigate the Blog
So this (little) site (of mine) has four different categories, which should help you find a new escape pretty easily …
Watch – has articles about movies & TV shows that you can watch to escape adulthood, from reviews, announcements of new releases, and trailers, to themed quotes and memes that’ll make you laugh.
Taste – has articles about some of my favorite places to grab food + drinks, and culinary adventures that are worth savoring (and sharing!).
Enjoy – has articles about travel, social outings, and fun experiences that’ll help you forget your adult responsibilities for a few minutes (or a few days).
Diary – has personal stories, reflections, and all my behind-the-scenes adventures to share my red carpet + movie premiere experiences, celeb meet and greets, and whatever else I deem worthy enough to write about.
But you can also use Tags to find what you need right this moment …
So if you know what you’re in the mood for, but not sure exactly what that is, tags are your best friend!
Tags are usually at the end of each post, but you can use the list of tags below to help you discover escapes by theme, location, event, or mood — like ‘Solo Travel,’ ‘Foodie Heaven,’ or ‘Halloween Fun.’ It’s an easy way to plan your next escape without scrolling forever. Just click on one to get started.
