Say Anything

Last Registration

By: Gabriela Yareliz Today, we 3Ls registered for our last set of law school classes. (I am so excited!) Graduation is gettin’ real, quick. Many of us don’t know what lies ahead, and some things may seem like detours or things that weren’t in our plans… “When God is getting ready to move you, in orderContinue reading “Last Registration”

My Mistake on: What Every “Godly” Girl Wants in a Man

By: Gabriela Yareliz So, I reblogged a post yesterday that I read, and I honestly think I read it thinking it was saying what I wanted it to say (it’s like being a bad listener, except this is being a bad reader). But after rereading it and thinking about it and discussing it, I realizedContinue reading “My Mistake on: What Every “Godly” Girl Wants in a Man”

Friday Glee: November 14, 2014

By: Gabriela Yareliz Baby, it’s cold outside! Full-blown winter out here. And for some reason, the light rain and four-degree wind chill (I exaggerate…) with the twinkling lights makes us feel that life is like a Christmas jewelry commercial (with background music and all). New York City just has that vibe. It doesn’t always have that vibe. OnlyContinue reading “Friday Glee: November 14, 2014”

Veterans Day

By: Gabriela Yareliz There are few things we understand in life. We can pretend to understand them or try to give them some kind of formula with what we do know; but the fact is there are things we can’t really define, but we can feel them, and they move us. I think love andContinue reading “Veterans Day”

Monday Inspiration: November 10, 2014

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”

The Lottery of Love?

By: Gabriela Yareliz Allow me to build my thesis: There are things that are very important to people when they are looking for a partner. We’ll call them the “nonnegotiable.” Weirdly, some can be amended by a persons choice to change or change of opinion; others are what they are. For example, I know people whoContinue reading “The Lottery of Love?”

Hopeless Wanderer: Village Edition

By: Gabriela Yareliz My favorite days are the ones where I wander around with my camera, observing and memorializing fleeting moments of loveliness and detail. “To photograph is to hold one’s breath when all faculties converge to capture fleeting reality.” Henri Cartier-Bresson Below are some of my snapshots from my neighborhood: Greenwich Village. Ready? Here’s some fantasticContinue reading “Hopeless Wanderer: Village Edition”

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”
