Forensic Files
“I was a Soldier - I’m tough. I can and will defend myself.” Is just a couple of the mantras I might have to continuously repeat to myself after watching this crime series every night before bed for over a year. When my boyfriend first found out about my nightly affair, he immediately asked; “What happens when the crimes creeps into your dreams?” Thankfully nothing about this show has crossed into the threshold of my subconscious while I sleep. Now, whether that phenomena, or lack thereof, is due to my nightly ingestion of melatonin gummies or an acquired apathy towards murder, I will let you decide.

On The Border
I was born and raised in Miami, a colorful oceanside city which borders the rest of the State of Florida. As a child, I could be found on any given night of the week running the halls of any number of Miami art galleries. If it were midnight on a Tuesday and you saw a 9 year-old sitting at a bar on South Beach, it was likely me. I would drink whatever juice concoctions appealed to me as I tried my best to impress my newly assigned “babysitter”, a model and part-time bartender. With a mother immersed in the social art scene, South Beach was my playground. By middle school, I would skip class and take the train to the beach. As an adult, I would go the beach and my favorite bar, religiously, every Sunday. No matter the weather anywhere else in Miami, it was always sunny at the beach. South Beach is home to a colorfully diverse international community, and yet it is anchored not by the differences of its inhabitants, but their humane similarities. A humans’ primal interest in seeking pleasure was the inspiring breath that gave life to the inhabitants of my first home. No one cared what you did or who you did, as long as you didn’t hurt others and you paid your tab. It is a community of people who respect the individuality of each persons’ unique definition of bliss and your right to follow it.
