Sunday Girl: February 22, 2015

By: Gabriela Yareliz Back-to-work Sunday. I’m Florida dreamin’ and listening to Jake Miller (fellow Floridian) while getting stuff done. Soundtrack: India won the match against South Africa yesterday. It was greatness. When I saw the photo of the team players together in their blue and orange uniforms, it brought back memories from my Gator CricketContinue reading “Sunday Girl: February 22, 2015”

Dreams & Oceans

By: Gabriela Yareliz Soundtrack to the post: Britt Nicole’s “Set the World on Fire” I’m thinking oceans. I’m thinking sunshine. I’m thinking warmth. We are growing up. But at this point in the game, some of us have to realize that we can’t keep thinking about the adults we want to be; we are adults,Continue reading “Dreams & Oceans”

Sick-Day Sabbath #2

I have sneezed so much, I am afraid I am going to sprain my neck or something. Unfortunately, I am sick, and fortunately, trapped indoors. Today, I was sneezing at a symposium (the photo above is from today–the one moment I was not sneezing). The symposium talked a lot about John Milton’s Paradise Lost. IContinue reading “Sick-Day Sabbath #2”

Reflections Before Bedtime #10

By: Gabriela Yareliz I am sick, sick as a… I’ll spare you the simile. It’s freezing cold. The wind bites; that is how cold it is. So, I stay indoors sipping on tea and kale juice, and sucking on vitamins (because they are too big to swallow *kidding* but they really are too big). Downstairs,Continue reading “Reflections Before Bedtime #10”

Reflections Before Bedtime #9

By: Gabriela Yareliz So today, God exceeded all of my expectations. #speechless Moral of the story? While I am over here having some weird mini heart attack, He is working in my favor. I realized today, that truly, some of the best things require the most patience. I am so grateful. My heart spilleth over,Continue reading “Reflections Before Bedtime #9”

Who You Are Dealing With

By: Gabriela Yareliz Do you think that God is limited by your name? What school you went to? Where you are? What you’ve done? Where you come from? What others think? Your financial resources? What you look like? If you do, you don’t know who you are dealing with. God’s greatness and the amazing thingsContinue reading “Who You Are Dealing With”

Bunny

By: Gabriela Yareliz This is one of my favorite creatures ever created. Her name is Bunny. When I see her, she reminds me of what it’s like to persevere in faith and loyalty, trusting in the goodness of the hand that provides all things for you. When I see her, I remember her strength, andContinue reading “Bunny”

Monday Inspiration: February 16, 2015

By: Gabriela Yareliz Happy Monday! Below-zero temperatures, snow and readings, oh my! Here we are. Just two weeks shy of saying goodbye to this red-heart themed month. I hope you have Presidents Day off. Apparently, the whole city is closed today, except the law school, of course. Time to brave the cold, brave the books,Continue reading “Monday Inspiration: February 16, 2015”

Sunday Girl: February 15, 2015

By: Gabriela Yareliz I like to find out what things mean. Curiosity…I should have been a cat? Kidding. It’s like the time I didn’t know what pound cake meant. It turns out that pound cake takes a pound of each ingredient (flour, butter, eggs and sugar). Apparently, the expression “Life is your oyster,” means: Oysters have aContinue reading “Sunday Girl: February 15, 2015”
