New York Moment

By: Gabriela Yareliz Official news: See that? The jungle of buildings, trees and water- THAT is going to be my home starting in the fall. Is that scary or what? Hey- I’m adaptable… it’ll just take a little time… Law school in New York- here we go! Every law student’s dream, right? I haven’t beenContinue reading “New York Moment”

Pool & Mere Brother Ki Dulhan

By: Gabriela Yareliz “I feel socially pressured to know about pool.” -Priscilla to me as we sat after getting our cap and gowns in the game room; as we watched Changmin duke it out with the nice guy with brown hair.

My failed interviews

By: Gabriela Yareliz Last day of class folks. Yup. People are marching into the 24-hour libraries with pillows under their arms. I am not kidding.

Nostalgia

By: Gabriela Yareliz It is official- I am having serious cricket withdrawals. I have quit freaking out about assignments and failed group projects.

Vent

By: Gabriela Yareliz Warning: What follows is a complete ventilation of feeling (really, more specifically, frustration)… So, the creepy guy at the library who always looks around at people, more specifically Felicia and I, like he wants to abduct us, GO AWAY. No one likes the way you cough all over the keyboard and lookContinue reading “Vent”
