Ms. Vedral Goes To Washington: One Year Out or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love DC
A year ago this coming Friday, I stepped off a Bolt Bus into a balmy 70+ degree day in my new home in Washington DC. My stuff had been moved down days before. Riding down in a U-haul, in a makeshift “middle-seat” with my cousins, the weather had been cold. There was still snow…
Ms. Vedral Goes to Washington: Where To Get Your Nails Did
It’s been widely documented on these pages that I like to get my grooming on. Eyebrow threadings, waxing, mani/pedis–as Lindsay Bluth Funke would rightly point out, “these are some real costs, Michael.” And boy are they real. I moved here a little over nine months ago on a tight budget, only to find that the…
Fashion’s Night Out: DC Style
Whoever described Washington as “Hollywood for ugly people” clearly never visited Fashion’s Night Out: Georgetown. This past Thursday, September 6th, M Street played host to a variety of fashion-centric events, deals, parties, and well, some frankly beautiful people. DC Style Is Real was on hand to capture some of those faces and stories and to…
Ms.Vedral Goes to Washington: Flats are for…
About a year ago, when I first began telling my friends and family that I was considering a move from my native New York City to Washington DC, the first argument against it–without fail–would be “but you have so much style.” I’ll admit, I didn’t disagree with their concern. I had been told by Washingtonians…
Where I Live and What I Live For
Author’s Note: Readers, when I moved to Washington DC nearly six months ago, I did not come with the intention of starting a literary career. After all, who moves from New York City to Capitol Hill to do that? Seriously, I’d like to know so that I can involve them in our writers’ circle. But…
…And That’s Why You Don’t Leave a Money Trail: Life Lessons on Integrity Courtesy of Woodward, Bernstein, and Vedral
In my younger and more vulnerable years, my father taught me a life lesson that I’ve been turning over in my mind ever since.* “You don’t want to end up like Chuck Colson, and go to prison in order to know Jesus. That’s why it’s important to have integrity.” The story you’re about to read…
Ms. Vedral Goes To Washington: Tru Confession from a Wannabe Desi Girl
I love South Asian culture. I love it. I can’t get enough of the food (Saag Paneer? Chicken Korma Masala? Naan? Yes please). My favorite type of dancing (besides hip hop) is bhangra and I typically have no less than 10 bhangra songs on my iPod at any given time. If it wasn’t completely weird…
Ms. Vedral Goes to Washington: Have You Met Ted?
I’ve been waiting to do a review of Ted’s Bulletin, almost since I first moved down here. But there was no way that one meal could do it justice, so after four visits (with definitely more to come), here is my take on Ted’s. For those living in North or Southeast, Ted’s should become a…
