By: Gabriela Yareliz When you sit and study for 16 hours a day, something is bound to change or give. I am not going to lie, it freaked me out a bit. While you can remain healthy, the sedentary lifestyle takes its toll. Mind you, I am not planning on gaining thirty pounds. That isContinue reading “Bar Exam Body Image Goals”

Soul Structure
By: Gabriela Yareliz I live in a wilderness that is quietly loud. And while I may not rest here forever, I carry the wild to my every endeavor. It’s simplicity mixed with what is natural; mixed with extravagant colors and memorable fragrances. It’s peace, mixed with hope and belief. It’s miles and miles of freedomContinue reading “Soul Structure”
Reflections Before Bedtime #26
By: Gabriela Yareliz Walking around here is like walking through a thick stew. It’s warm, thick and pretty much spicy. It’s the land where seashells crackle under our feet, where lizards come out to greet us, and where the sky, even after sunset, is drop-dead gorgeous. We almost envy the stars. The salty air andContinue reading “Reflections Before Bedtime #26”

We age, day by day, and it is a privilege we must embrace to grow our souls into flourishing gardens. IContinue reading “Reflections Before Bedtime #23”
Reflections Before Bedtime #22
By: Gabriela Yareliz My random thoughts of the night: Life surprises us in the wildest ways. We make plans, God laughs (that kind of thing). Sometimes, dreaming big can cost you, literally, but then faith comes through to repay all debts. Maybe, when we think we are lost, if we look close enough, we realize thatContinue reading “Reflections Before Bedtime #22”
Friday Glee: April 24, 2015
By: Gabriela Yareliz Things are ending slowly, quickly; regardless, they are ending. Things are changing quickly, slowly; regardless, they are changing. Dreams are coming true slowly, quickly; regardless, they are coming true. These next few months will be filled with study routines, exams, airport lines, jet setting, interviews, and the beginning of a career unfolding. I’veContinue reading “Friday Glee: April 24, 2015”
