The (Obvious) Smoke in an Elevator
By: Gabriela Yareliz Sometimes, our gut feeling and intuition is blunt and clear. We receive the message and understand it immediately. I stood there clutching some recycling as the elevator door rolled open. I was eager to get into the elevator as it’s the only way into the basement where the trash and recycling areContinue reading “The (Obvious) Smoke in an Elevator”
Shadows

A Historic Day
By: Gabriela Yareliz I think we all woke up knowing the world was shifting right beneath our feet. I woke up to the headline below, and clicked into it wondering if this was real.

Here’s the thing— the only way to get the basement where the machines are is via elevator. There is no staircase. I patiently waited (my frustration mounting). I wondered if I was going toContinue reading “Intersections and Delays”
A Child’s Surprise
We saw a gift that was delivered downstairs, close to the entry door. It was this enormous box with one of those motorized cars kids can sit in and ride. When we read the address on the box, we realized it was for my tiny neighbor right next to us down the hall. We gotContinue reading “A Child’s Surprise”
This Week’s Update
By: Gabriela Yareliz There we were, J and me, memorizing Super Bass by Nicki Minaj for our law school clinic’s talent show/ karaoke night in this tiny basement establishment in Greenwich Village. I can still rap parts of it. This week, I was heartened to see the greatest female rapper of our time address theContinue reading “This Week’s Update”
