There's something so cool about Seattle.  That crisp mountain air, bevy of gay bars and incredible coffee are just the start.  It was great to visit my good pal Wes and see one of my new favorite cities, again.

What do an album from a new artist, a skincare treatment and my new favorite way to do my hair all have in common?  Well, they're some of the things I'm obsessed with this month.  Take a peak at my favorite 5 things this month and let me know what you're gushing over, too!

I'm back -- for real this time.  With a new goal for 2018 and random drive of motivation, I'm ready for this new chapter of Matcha Had Me.

If I'm gonna be stuck at home in DC all summer, I might as well make the most of it.  I'll be trying to tap it back, eat all the b'day truffles I can and catch a few shows as I excitingly count down the days until my big move back out west.

I never thought I'd happily share my experience of camping and running around in rural Tennesee for five days.  An impulsive purchase (with a little liquid courage) quickly became the best decision I've ever made.  Bonnaroo was one of the most amazing, unique experience -- so real I have almost no content and left my contour kits at home.  With a great lil Croo, a couple insane shows and some tasty treats, Bonnaroo will be hard to beat.

I cannot believe it's almost my favorite time of the year!!  After two years apart, I am ready to head east to Indio for two weekends of this year's Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival, even if I'm still a little dead from two weekends in Vegas.  I'm so excited to see so many of my favorite artists for the first tim and this one other pop singer you may or may not have heard about before.  Now, let's party in the desert!!

A thousand and one thoughts ran through my head after the 2016 election results, so I had to write some of them down.

Odds are, when you think about Gaga, you probably think about me (sorry not sorry, that's T), so you can only imagine how excited I must feel right now.  Gaga's long-awaited album Joanne is finally out!! I could not be more excited for this album, and I truly believe that the wait was worth it.  Gaga has grown so much as a person and an artist, and Joanne perfectly showcases her talents.  Along with the help of Mark Ronson and Bloodpop, Gaga's new album is handsdown the album that will change everything.  This is the album the world needs.  

I was anxious to see how Outside Lands would stand up to Coachella, which I love so much.  By Sunday night, I would say I am definitely a fan of OSL.  This weekend was filled with amazing food, Macarena sing-a-longs (Bayside Boys, only), overfilled beds, daddies and many laughs. I will remember my first Outside Lands forever, especially since I decided to put a lil video together...

I started interning almost a month ago at this little company you may or may not have heard about.  It has been one of the most amazing experiences I could only ever dream of.  Even from week one, I've learned so many valuable things that I will apply everywhere in my life.  Want to know more about it?
