One hot summer day in the capital. Blerta and I were office mates. We were affectionately called, “The meanies.” In other words, don’t mess with us. This panel was so fantastic. Exploring Maryland with my host family. Mucho, the dog. We had an interesting relationship that summer. Wearing those Spain stripes. I love exploring cemeteries.Continue reading “Memories: Washington, D.C. & Maryland”

San Antonio Adventures, Pt. 2
By: Gabriela Yareliz Visiting the Alamo was memorable. This property is absolutely gorgeous. Old world charm. Luis’ profile. My favorite kind of selfie. This Mexican folk art boutique was exquisite. Meet me by the river! Thank you, San Antonio. You were clean, friendly, gorgeous and a perfect summer adventure.
San Antonio Adventures, Pt. 1
By: Gabriela Yareliz In 2015, thanks to a friend’s extreme kindness (he heard us sing from Florida to Texas on a road trip) and my family’s sense of adventure, I had the opportunity to visit San Antonio, Texas. It was beautiful. I loved it so much. Texas left a fantastic impression on me. I wouldContinue reading “San Antonio Adventures, Pt. 1”
Warm New Orleans Afternooon
By: Gabriela Yareliz Last week was mild in New York City. It was filled with overcast skies and warm rain. A classic man in a Stetson hat offered me his umbrella on one of the rainy days. He said he couldn’t stand to watch my beautiful hair get wet. It was a fresh blow dryContinue reading “Warm New Orleans Afternooon”

How the Sequel Began: Part II
By: Gabriela Yareliz I was standing on the street waiting. I was waiting for the real estate agents who were supposed to meet me at that particular apartment. It was the day right after the traumatic two-day bar exam marathon. As I waited on the hot, sunny sidewalk, I observed the rundown but bursting atContinue reading “How the Sequel Began: Part II”
Road Trip
By: Gabriela Yareliz The family is going on a road trip, and naturally, I am coming along– bar books, camera and all. It will be quite the adventure. By the end of the summer, I will have probably visited at least eight states (?), with my departure and destination points being the same. Life isContinue reading “Road Trip”
Monday Inspiration: June 22, 2015
By: Gabriela Yareliz I saw the bar exam countdown calendar. Thirty-something days left. I shuddered. This is insane; the way time has run away, kidnapping our summer. For those still in law school doing internships, their internships are halfway done. It’s that time in the summer when exhaustion settles into numbness, and even Shakespeare inContinue reading “Monday Inspiration: June 22, 2015”
Monday Inspiration: June 8, 2015
“Stop planting flowers in people’s yards who aren’t going to water them.” Unknown By: Gabriela Yareliz So much has happened. Life continues to change in delightful ways. Nostalgia grips; beginnings commence; and other things end. Moments of transition are so bittersweet. Regardless, moving forward is always something positive no matter how huge the growing curveContinue reading “Monday Inspiration: June 8, 2015”
This Month’s Picks: May 2015
By: Gabriela Yareliz May. It’s over. I can’t believe it. Law school. It’s over. I can’t believe it. This month was so hardcore. So many emotions. It’s an end. It’s a beginning. This month, I lost a friend and mentor to cancer. That was very tough and unexpected. Some unexpected things were bad, other unexpected thingsContinue reading “This Month’s Picks: May 2015”
