Cold day

By: Gabriela Yareliz Okay, so don’t quit your day job, but do buy a ticket, get a tan and fall in love. Today, the weather channel said it felt like 8F degrees. Personally… I don’t know what it felt like. Dante’s inferno with ice? Just kidding. In my mind, the perfect world has the colorContinue reading “Cold day”

Hurricane Sandy

By: Gabriela Yareliz So… this is me. Trying to finish off as much frozen food as I can before Hurricane Sandy hits. They are closing the mass transit system down, so there will be no transportation, hence no school. (They still haven’t officially announced it, but I will do it for them.) So I amContinue reading “Hurricane Sandy”
