By: Gabriela Yareliz NYC has felt the influx of people for the World Cup. I have seen large clusters of Brazilians, Algerians, French, and Colombian visitors. I have been listening to Saoko on repeat. It’s all about change and transformation, after all. Some of the moments collected in the week (culturally and personally): The TkachuksContinue reading “Saoko”

This Week’s Favorites 06.19.26
By: Gabriela Yareliz The week is coming to an end. Nothing like a Friday. I continued my The Core 21-day challenge, and I am getting ready to go on a solid morning walk before the sun starts roasting us. I am excited to start Sarah Dessen’s new book! Spent some time starting to deep cleanContinue reading “This Week’s Favorites 06.19.26”
Hockey’s Latest
By: Gabriela Yareliz Hockey news! John Tortorella is out for VGK (an unfortunate move given that he took a team that was out of the playoffs and took them to the Stanley Cup final). I hope a good team snatches him up. In happier news, Peter LaViolette was hired as head coach for the LAContinue reading “Hockey’s Latest”
Game Six (Category 5)
The Carolina Hurricanes reached category five, and they swept the VGK with no mercy. By: Gabriela Yareliz We all underestimated them, but they came ready to grind like a good Southern team. The tarp was off, last night. Yesterday’s win was not luck or circumstance. It was pure grit and systematic grind. Game six endedContinue reading “Game Six (Category 5)”
Knicks in Five
Congrats to the Knicks and the City of New York. Yesterday, you could feel the buzz of energy as you walked past certain bars and establishments. (And this was during the day before the game even started). History has been made. NY sports sometimes feel like they have a crusty old curse on them. WillContinue reading “Knicks in Five”
This Week’s Favs 06.13.26
By: Gabriela Yareliz It was a busy week. I walked a lot more than usual, which felt nice. I have been doing The Core’s 21-Day Program. I am on day eight. I think lifting heavier weights has made me extra sleepy at night. Tired to the bone. It’s officially summer. There is no way theContinue reading “This Week’s Favs 06.13.26”
Game Five
Something was bigger than PK Subban’s hat. By: Gabriela Yareliz PK Subban showed up in a hat that made Messier look like an angry park ranger. But to me, there was a moment that meant more in the game. Listen— Carolina is in it to win it. I was wrong. So far, they are showingContinue reading “Game Five”
Game Three
“No lead is safe.” By: Gabriela Yareliz ‘Chaos’ was the main word used to describe game three. There was a bizarre ‘Welcome to Vegas’ Cirque du Soleil situation at the beginning, a moving National Anthem, and the game began. It was a total snooze fest until the last half of the second period, where theContinue reading “Game Three”
Game Two
By: Gabriela Yareliz Is Vegas still calm? #NoPanicVGK Yesterday, the Carolina Hurricanes flipped the tables on the Vegas Golden Knights. They spent the majority of game two at zero, and ten minutes before the end of regulation, they tied the game with the Golden Knights. You know what happens when it’s tied— you sigh andContinue reading “Game Two”
Game One
By: Gabriela Yareliz The Knights aren’t panicked. They are cool, calm, collected and winning. The Hurricanes and Knights battled it out yesterday in the Stanley Cup Final, game 1. It was such a fast-paced game filled with surprises. The scores crawled up the ladder for both teams, rendering them tied at many points in theContinue reading “Game One”
