[Image from Tumblr] By: Gabriela Yareliz A happy Sunday morning to you! French election, round one, kicks off. I need to find a minute today and whip out some stationery and write to Madame about our election concerns. I think I will wait until I see who dominated in this premier tour. Participation is atContinue reading “Sunday Girl: April 23, 2017”

How Love Unfolds
Have you ever seen something that makes you recall and relive your own story or experience? I think that as we get older we start seeing and accepting things for what they are. For example, ourselves. When I saw the last season of New Girl, I realized I was not and would never be likeContinue reading “How Love Unfolds”
Wednesday Badinage: March 8, 2017
Instead of spending energy on saying things we don’t mean, let’s spend it on sincerity and saying exactly what’s in our hearts. Because that takes courage.
This Place
By: Gabriela Yareliz This place has never been a place where I pose in daily outfits or sponsor brands. It’s not filled with photos of me posing with a bag dangling from my forearm, while looking impeccable. It’s not a place where I test different shades of makeup or tell you how to eat. IContinue reading “This Place”
Sabbath Glee: March 4, 2017
“I have always been delighted at the prospect of a new day, a fresh try, one more start, with perhaps a bit of magic waiting somewhere behind the morning.” J.B. Priestley By: Gabriela Yareliz After two weeks where it felt like someone played tug-of-war with me and my head was pounding, I am here. Still.Continue reading “Sabbath Glee: March 4, 2017”
Thread
By: Gabriela Yareliz 6:00 am: Woke up. Ate my two gummy vitamins. Watched some Stephen Colbert, after morning prayer. 7:00 am: On the train with three magazines stuffed in my bag for comfort. I don’t open the magazine I was reading the day before. I am not particularly interested in reading about the Egyptian presidentContinue reading “Thread”
This is how 2016 began and ended

I didn’t say much at the time because my goal is to always uplift. So, because I write the blog mainly for myself (it’s my self reflection), IContinue reading “This is how 2016 began and ended”
Reflections Before Bedtime #94
By: Gabriela Yareliz It’s a good thing my heart is stubborn. It’s also a bit like snow. It can be tough; it can be soft; and it melts in inevitable warmth. It sparkles. It glows. Magic. It’s a good thing I befriend people by force. Before they know it, I have come into their lives andContinue reading “Reflections Before Bedtime #94”
Reflections Before Bedtime #92
“Her mind is an unquiet one, words and thoughts and impulses constantly crashing into each other.” – David Levithan By: Gabriela Yareliz Is it bad that I am exhausted from the weekend? I had decided to rest this weekend until I decided to venture to grounds that don’t let me so much as sit downContinue reading “Reflections Before Bedtime #92”
Sunday Girl: October 23, 2016
By: Gabriela Yareliz Friday came to a close as I sat down to eat a stale piece of leftover pizza after making my apartment look like Monica Geller had come to visit. As I chewed on the pizza, I perused an article about the shelf life of pizza in a refrigerator, on BuzzFeed. Halfway throughContinue reading “Sunday Girl: October 23, 2016”
