四合院成型中

美死，亲耐的菜菜同学终于下决心了。

昨晚做梦我是菜同学的REALTOR， 一晚上都琢磨着要办哪些手续呢。

鉴于半年内居然弄进两家来院子， 我真应该严肃考虑去考个REALTOR的执照了。 ^_^

一点小配件 - 补齐了

在家里看两只狗加养胃, 没劲头折腾衣服们,就把这几天买的小配件给拍了点.

Jcrew的小狗发夹



Cynthia Vincent的flat,特喜欢那个镂空的花案, 可惜穿了一次我的脚就受不了了, 起了5个大泡, 哭死, 看来又只有送人的命




Marc Jacob的大包, 上班用



同一系列的钱夹, 好闷骚啊



Simply Very by Very Wang的flat, 非常非常舒服, 可惜不太跟脚




Marc Jacob的手镯




老海军的拖鞋,冬天寒意扫光光

iPhone还是很不错的

我终于摆脱公司的blackberry了,谢天谢地. 不过呢, 以前我都是把自己的电话全给forward到公司电话上, 现在我不得不重新开始用自己的手机了. 检查了我的小破机,基本不能用, 于是某裁缝利用某瓜需要电话的机会给自己买了个iPhone...什么逻辑....

iPhone比我想象的好很多. 尤其是上网, 有WIFI的地方直接连WIFI, 屏幕够大, 上YOUZI看得好清楚, 看YOUTUBE也是特别方便, 放大缩小只要手指轻轻一弹. 照片质量也不错, 不过没传到电脑上不能完全确定. 电池情况有待观察.

用iTune激活.极方便...

Rent-stabilized Park Ave Apartment

本城大8G。 听说过吗？Rent-stabilized Park Ave Apartment？

看新闻吧。

Poor Bianca Jagger. She's losing the lease on the Park Avenue apartment she's had for twenty years. After lawyers for her landlord, Katz Park Ave. Corp., pointed out to a judge that Jagger was only staying in the United States on a temporary visa, it was impossible for her to claim that the rent-stabilized apartment was her permanent residence. Jagger paid $4,600 a month in rent for the home at the tony 530 Park building. According to reports, the market rent of her apartment would be upwards of $8,000. Not that it really matters, since she stopped paying in 2003, claiming that "toxic mildew" in the walls made it impossible for her to live there. She and Katz are still embroiled in a $20 million lawsuit over the mold. It's so confusing; is Bianca a victim? We can't tell. Really, the whole thing just brings us back to the age-old New York conundrum: Why the hell does someone like Bianca Jagger get to have a rent-stabilized apartment, anyway?

Bianca Jagger Loses NYC Apartment

In case　你对纽约情况不熟悉，这里有点背景知识：
Bianca Jagger是纽约一小名人，　社会和人权活动家，　有欧洲亲善大使之类的各式头衔。
Park Ave 属于纽约市所谓精英人士居住区， 有个Part Ave的地址被很多人看做成功标志。　
Rent-stabilized apartment情况比较复杂， 一般是给低收入外加在若干年前就以低租金入住的人提供的帮助。

我现在也有这样的习惯。。。
