At 19 years of age, most of us have no idea what we want to do for our weekend, let alone a career. And virtually none of us are traveling the world performing music. In the ever-populating suburb of Temecula, CA, lives a teenager who is already turning these ambitions into reality. Welcome to the life of Hunter Pea. The talented guitarist might be young, but he has the musical IQ of a person twice his age, and a drive for success that some people never attain. Since his early days of youth,Read More

Boys will be boys, and sometimes men will still act as boys. This sociological truth transcends even the most gentlemanly of sports, including tennis. But the altercation involving Nick Kyrgios and Stan Wawrinka was different than most on-court arguments, even by tennis standards. The personal nature of the infamous sledge wasn’t the first of its kind, and it won’t be the last. In case you missed it, Aussie Nick Kyrgios made a comment during his match against Wawrinka that “Kokkinakis banged [Wawrinka’s] girlfriend.” He muttered it under his breath, butRead More

I bet you didn’t know that this Sunday, August 16th, is National Rum Day. But you’re welcome, because now you do, and you have another reason to celebrate. To get you pumped for an epic Sunday RumDay celebration, we’re sharing some recipes designed by Captain Morgan in conjunction with one of America’s most-beloved supermodels – the incomparable Chrissy Teigen! Last weekend, Chrissy Teigen headed to South Beach for her own Sunday RumDay bash with Captain Morgan. During the celebration, Chrissy shared “3 Freaky Facts” about herself. See below for a hilarious videoRead More

College has forever been pushed as perhaps the greatest time in life, but does anyone ever mention the drawbacks? Well, besides the pretty much unimaginable cost, which is touted as one of the biggest drawbacks to anything ever, but doesn’t actually feel real to anyone. For example, I currently owe $8,032 to my university. Having never seen more than five hundred dollars at once, this number feels obnoxiously big and like it could be way, way, smaller. But wait, there’s more…   1. There’s walking. Like a lot. Can someone please explainRead More

You’ve cried. You’ve consumed more pints of ice cream than anyone with a slight dairy allergy should. You’ve watched Sex and the City, the movie, seven times, but only until Mr. Big leaves Carrie at the altar, er, the New York library. You’ve empathized with her complete emotional demolishment while she has a weird piece of bird jewelry on her head. You’ve fully mastered the art of sleeping in the center of the bed, but you still haven’t done your laundry because you know there are three of his shirtsRead More

Pre-Concert You’re excited, but it hasn’t really sunk in yet. Are you sure you have legitimate tickets? What if somehow you got sold a double and when you get there, they won’t let you in? Oh God, are you sure you’re even ready to go? Mostly you’re just nervous about having everything. Your cell phone? Charger? Wallet with merch money? All the Could-Go-Wrongs and Might-Happens are in full force, and the nerves are overriding the crazy waves of euphoria you should be feeling right now. It means so much toRead More

On part 2 of my “Big City Poetry” series, I examine the intellectual heart valve that is Washington D.C. I pretentious it up with a bit of lame-ambic pentameter (see what I did there?) based on my experience visiting the Capitol city. Big City Poetry: D.C.’s the Brain The August recess makes this public sector hotspot feel oddly ghostlike. This isn’t the real D.C., it’s not alive enough. For an authentic experience you must wait until the leaves change. It’s then you’ll know… When bureaucrats strut through awakened streets withRead More

With the American hard court season upon us (the men take over Montreal this week), all eyes will be on Novak Djokovic and Rafael Nadal. The former will begin a quest to win his second U.S. Open title after 3 consecutive years of earlier losses. Meanwhile, the world number 9, Nadal will aim to re-establish himself as a grand slam threat. But these two are not the only top stories as we sail into the North American hard courts… Where is Dimi? At this time last year, the tennis universeRead More

-Ronda Rousey- Twitter: @rondarousey Instagram: rondarousey Known for: Being the most badass female on the entire planet. -Sometimes we go with obvious names – no shame in that. Ronda Rousey is a UFC fighter, as you’re probably aware. But there is nothing unattractive about this female brawler. Sure, she might kick every competitor’s ass and knock them out cold in less than a minute, but let’s be honest – Ronda Rousey is still gorgeous. Here at Writtalin, when it comes to Woman Crush Wednesday, we don’t consider the fact that aRead More

Ah, it feels great to be back. After a many month hiatus from the world of Writtalin, I have returned to try my hands at something a bit different. Poetry. On a recent trip to the Apple of Bigness, I decided to wet my chops in this field, and am looking to turn ‘Big City Poetry’ into a series of chronicles from cities around the states. Although I’ve never done this before, I figured it never hurts to try a hand at something pretentious. Enjoy. The Air of NYC JulyRead More

Okay, so we had a lull in the action and haven’t had a Girl of the Month in awhile…that’s our bad. BUT we trust that we’ll more than make up for it by presenting to you our new Miss August, Katie Adler, who is as hot as the August weather. We found this Canadian hottie on Instagram, which some 19,000 people have already done. If you’re not one of them, you should change that, because Katie’s Instagram is definitely something you don’t want to miss. We’ll get to prove thatRead More
