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”

Love Shoutout: La Familia
By: Gabriela Yareliz A snippet of me being with the people I love the most, my family. This one goes out to the people who make my eyes sparkle; the people God has gifted to me as my home. We are the best team. We are overcomers, comedians, and we walk each day together. IContinue reading “Love Shoutout: La Familia”
Left My Heart in Cedar Key
Photos and commentary by: Gabriela Yareliz We started 2015 with a little trip to Cedar Key. I love that place. Sea shell heaven. I am ever the nosy one. Between the pubs on C Street. Nature’s many shades. Gray glitter. Because in Florida, you don’t have to wear shoes. XOXO from the fishing pier andContinue reading “Left My Heart in Cedar Key”

Big rivalry; it’s a big deal. I am super excited for the Gators! So far, they are kicking some serious, LSU butt. I am listening toContinue reading “Go Gators!”
An Ode to Summer
By: Gabriela Yareliz SUMMER IN THE CITY [Inspired by: New York City] Despite my autumn fever, yesterday’s 68-degree morning, and leaving the house with a jacket today, it is still officially a tourist-crowded-sidewalk NYC summer. People’s addiction to ice cream does not seem to be waning. I am slightly traumatized from last winter, and IContinue reading “An Ode to Summer”
The Florida Lifestyle
By: Gabriela Yareliz Every state has a different vibe and stereotype, right? I haven’t fully discovered New York’s identity. I’ve discovered New York City’s identity, but not the state’s. I need to spend more time outside of the city. But Florida, I know Florida well. I stood many hours sweating at bus stops on UniversityContinue reading “The Florida Lifestyle”
This Week’s Picks: October 20, 2013/ Women’s Issues
By: Gabriela Yareliz Aloha! Man, it’s crispy outside! Today, I am staying in to hibernate. Okay, it’s not that cold, but still–why leave the house if you don’t have to? Yesterday, I was rocking the tights. Yes. We are there. I HATE TIGHTS. I miss Florida so much. If this were Florida, we would allContinue reading “This Week’s Picks: October 20, 2013/ Women’s Issues”
Florida Girl
By: Gabriela Yareliz I heard this song and it made me miss Florida so badly. I mean, I already miss Florida like crazy, but this song did it. It is like the soundtrack to my days driving with my windows down through country roads. I can’t wait to be home. This song is: driving throughContinue reading “Florida Girl”
Guess who is going home?
It is official!! Florida your sunshine will bless me for a few days before I begin my internship. God I miss you. I can’t wait for the hellish month of exams to be over! As usual, the minute I am done in NYC, I say to Manhattan, PEACE, I am OUT! Hommmmeeeeeee.
McCarty & Home
I miss home. Recently, I felt a desire to be at the humid and exhaust-filled McCarty RTS University of Florida bus stop. I would’ve given anything to just stand there. I miss my family. I miss my friends. I miss Florida. I miss home.
