Spring & Break
By: Gabriela Yareliz Happy semana santa! It’s the week leading up to Easter. It’s also our only break in the semester. It’s more of a reading week, since exams are days away.

Look to God
You must look to God and trust in Him. Lean upon Him, and He will not forsake you. He will not leave you to perish.

Who we are supposed to be
Quotes by Ellen G. White, Testimonies for the Church, vol. 2 “We are forbidden to wrong our neighbor in anything. We should not view the matter from the worldling’s standpoint.

Exclusive
By: Gabriela Yareliz What’s in a name? Apparently, a lot. There are many popular gyms in New York, as a “Manhattanite” student, two come to mind: Crunch and Equinox. Crunch can be found on many street corners of the Manhattan. It has a purple banner with its bicep logo. Students often go to Crunch. TheyContinue reading “Exclusive”
It’s all in the family
By: Gabriela Yareliz Recently, I was walking in front of a stair case when I saw her. She was intensely familiar but at the same time very different. She had a phone in her hand. She was animatedly talking to someone. A look of confusion flashed on her face, and then, she spotted me. AContinue reading “It’s all in the family”
