Soundtrack: By: Gabriela Yareliz Today my professor lifted the seating chart and pointed at a blue ink blot and said, “That is where I wept.” Didn’t we all (because of his class). Ha. Happy Monday! The people asking for petition signatures were out; the ones that ask “Do you want to know what’s in yourContinue reading “Monday Inspiration: November 10, 2014”

#SundayBoss: November 9, 2014
By: Gabriela Yareliz Is it really too early for Christmas music? Ha. There is quite the debate out there (Buzzfeed). Soon, we’ll be hearing John Lennon’s “Happy Xmas” (War is Over), the Trans-Siberian Orchestra Christmas Canon Rock, and that Christmas Shoes song that I listen to insensitively all season, and then finally, there is one time that I listen to it where IContinue reading “#SundayBoss: November 9, 2014”
Monday Inspiration: November 3, 2014 (Farkle Edition)
[Meet the hilarious, intelligent and flirty Farkle Minkus from Girl Meets World. Turns out there is a lot you can do with pen and paper. Some of the things we do with these two simple objects are what makes some of us feel the most alive.] Goal for the week: Let’s take out the headphones,Continue reading “Monday Inspiration: November 3, 2014 (Farkle Edition)”
Sunday Girl
Soundtrack: “In my mind, it’s Sunday all the time.” By: Gabriela Yareliz So, my dream of a rainy [omitted: humid] November came true, except for the humid part, which was part of the request. Yesterday, rain drops pelted us like bullets. Cold, stinging rain. I guess you can’t have it all. (Grin). November is here, andContinue reading “Sunday Girl”
This Month’s Picks: October 2014
By: Gabriela Yareliz That’s it. October is out with a bang! And November is being swept in by a cold gust of wind (and not the weird Pharrell ‘you-remind-me-of-the-air’-“Gust of wind” song). Here is my compilation of fun things I found throughout the month, as usual. There are a few of my favorite things sprinkled below:Continue reading “This Month’s Picks: October 2014”
Proctors & Wallpaper
By: Gabriela Yareliz Today was the dreaded corporate accounting exam in various law schools in the city, apparently. It is hilarious when you go into an exam nervous, because the proctors usually make the nerves evaporate in the 15 minutes of prep time prior to the exam. The proctors are hilarious– unintentionally, of course. There is alwaysContinue reading “Proctors & Wallpaper”
Monday Inspiration: October 27, 2014
[Look at the week with the confidence of Inspector Clouseau.] By: Gabriela Yareliz Hello, hello! Last week of October. We’ve survived. We made it. It’s been a sniffley, sleep-deprived, couple of weeks. I just finished a project on international law and torture. I was confirming the spelling of a terrorist group, and I felt nervous whileContinue reading “Monday Inspiration: October 27, 2014”
Hopeless Wanderer: STH/ST/SEAPRT/NYC, Cider Feast Edition
By: Gabriela Yareliz I decided that not another day could go by with me not visiting one of my favorite places in the city–South Street Seaport District. I love the crisp, windiness by the sea and the boats. So, I grabbed my camera (partner-in-crime) and wandered down to the Financial District. The day was perfect; notContinue reading “Hopeless Wanderer: STH/ST/SEAPRT/NYC, Cider Feast Edition”
Monday Inspiration: October 20, 2014
By: Gabriela Yareliz Happy Monday to all. Enjoy this week as October is in all of its fullness because next week is the last week of this fantastic, action-packed little month. It’s chilly out, skin starts feeling different (extra-moisture lotion!) and lip balm is needed. Autumn is in the middle of its parade, the sky is dimmingContinue reading “Monday Inspiration: October 20, 2014”
Epiphanies (with a tissue in hand)
By: Gabriela Yareliz The internet is about to be down for a couple of hours. (Shall we resume the discussion on first-world problems?) Today, I realized: 1) Being sick always brings me epiphanies. Is it the delirious feeling, the loss of fluids or the medication? 2) The key is finding contentment even when you are exhausted beyondContinue reading “Epiphanies (with a tissue in hand)”
