My life changed after GUALA!

Yes, it was a week packed with information, but it was also really fun.

(I cried as I was editing it, because I miss my GUALA family so much </3 )

this vlog is ALL about my experience at the airport, arriving at Georgetown University, meeting my beloved GUALA leaders, going to training sessions, baseball game, traveling in the metro INCLUDING when some of them got stuck (hahahaha), going to the capitol and white house, yoga, and so many more fun experiences!

I know it’s long, but how can I do a 3 minute video on the best week of my life? 

If you’re interested in applying to GUALA, you can do so now!

Weekly update :)

Hi y'all,

I hope everyone has been having a wonderful week!
Praise the lord for this weather, because the cold is gone :3
I love that it's not too hot, like it's sunny but it's windy, so you're not sweating like crazy :)
ANYWAYS, enough ranting about the weather!

I have finally uploaded the first set of Spanish/English vlogs!
Both videos are all about GPA :)

Para ver en el video en español, oprime el botón de play de este video:

To watch the English version, click play here:

This past 2 weeks, were all about taking tests! Now that they're over, I'm so ready to relax!

I will for sure be visiting my bestie in mexico, we will go get manis and pedis, then i will probably go to the pool and read a book. 

Who am I kidding.... I still have the MCAT to worry about D;

I have been working on my sleeping schedule as well. I feel like a grandma sometimes, because by 10:00 PM I am GONE! I start getting sleepy by 9:30, I shut off all electronics (I have my phone on a scheduled do not disturb), and I proceed to read the bible. 

I love sleeping early because I wake up early, I make breakfast and start my productive day.

At what time do you usually go to sleep? What's your night time routine like?

Have a blessed week,

XO Yarii <3

Happy valentine's day y'all

To celebrate this wonderful day, I invited my BEST FRIEND Julio to film with me a best friend tag!
We had so much fun filming this vlog, we ended up having 43:56 minutes of footage! It was so difficult to edit because i kept laughing and having to re-watch everything to edit out unnecessary parts! I also had to go through ALL of my pictures to find the ones i wanted to use, and special effects for the video!
we hope you enjoy this video and have fun with it as much as we did :)

We tag each and every one of you!
Trust me, it's loads of fun!
You also get to learn new things about your bff that you thought you knew!

I will be doing this Best Friend Tag with my bestie from MEXICO!
So obviously it will be in spanish, so it fits with my theme of translating videos ;)
Although it can't be the exact same content, it will be pretty similar!


Here are the questions you and your bff need to answer:

1. How and when did you meet? 
2. What's your favorite memory together? 
3. Describe each other in one word. 
4. What's your dream job? 
5. What's your favorite food? 
6. What is something that annoys you about the other person? 
7. If you could go anywhere in the world together, where would it be and why? 
8. Favorite inside joke? 
9. What is one thing you like about each other? 
10. what’s your Favorite season? 
11. what’s your Favorite song? 
12. What is it like being best friends with someone who is obsessed with youtube. 
13. Who is your favorite youtuber?
14. how do you picture each others future? 
15. what do you usually argue about? 
16. If your house was burning down, and your entire family was sure to be okay, what would you save and why? 
17. Comedy, horror, or chick-flick? 
18. favorite trip together?

Weekly update :)

Hello beauties,

I'm sorry i took so long in blogging!
I had my first test week :S
well I actually had TWO exams!

Anyways, this week I will be bombarding YouTube with 4 uploads!
I finally got around to editing all the vlogs I had filmed!

I also have a surprise for valentine's day <3

I've mentioned before that I'm from mexico, (and I bring this up because I had an idea!) so my mom doesn't know much english. Since my mom is obviously not the only one who doesn't speak english in this country, I have started filming a translation for my videos!
So there will be an english version AND a spanish version!
Sometimes I might just add subtitles or I'll see how it will work out!

today’s vlog is all about GPA!

Some students and parents don’t know what a GPA is and its importance!

I’m here to help :)

I also talk about some great tips on how to raise and/or maintain your GPA :D

After so looooooong, i have finally edited and uploaded my apartment tour!
this room tour will show what it's like living at UTB housing!
I love living at Casa Bella!
If you're planning to enroll in UTB make sure you consider living with us ;)

Weekly update :)

Good morning y'all,

I've been having an roller coaster week! Although I've been meeting all my weekly goals, unfortunately I got sick :/
I have a cold and conjunctivitis 0=
thank god today i'll be getting medicine.

As I told y'all last week, Maria and I were in a photo shoot for the Texas Scholars Magazine, we also had time to film a GUALA tag and it's finally up on youtube!
I had so much fun filming/editing it and I hope we get to do more blogs together!
Now it's time for the other GUALA leaders/mentors to respond back!
Ashton already did her GUALA tag and it was really good! Her funniest memory was the time that we went to a rude psychic, and i had totally forgotten about that! we thought that she was going to curse us, she obviously didn't because ro, ashton, maria and I are all doing great things!

How did you like our GUALA tag? leave a comment below :)

I also shared with y'all my life goals! God willing, I will reach them all!

what are your goals? let me know by writing a comment or filming a video response!

  

I apologize for not uploading the room tour yet, but since we've been having cold weather, it's not sunny and I still need to film the outside of casa bella. If the weather continues like this, I will just film it and upload it regardless.

On friday, all the RAs from Casa Bella had their photo shoot! It was so much fun, we're like a family and enjoy hanging out with each other! This wednesday we will be showing Catching fire at the casa bella lawn @ 7PM! I'm a big hunger games fan so i will definitely be there!

I'm the Building 3 RA! 

I have the best Building buddy! If you see Frank around campus make sure you say hi :)

That's all for today's blog! I hope y'all have a great week!

Remember that Gear Up Works!

weekly update :)

Good afternoon y'all,

this week has been super crazy!

The first week of school passed which means....I'm an official broke college student lol

Books are SUPER EXPENSIVE! 

Renting is always the best choice! Or buying the international version!

Martin Luther king day was on Monday, we didn't have class, however we had community service. Even though I had to wake up at 6:00am, I got to work with 6th grade students from Guadalupe middle school. We did a few scientific experiments and the kids loved it. The physics circus also performed and it was a-m-a-z-i-n-g!

Yesterday was my birthday as well, I feel terribly blessed, my mom and my grandma have been the greates blessing of my life! I have celebrated with a food fest lol

But I also procrastinated on my Vlog :( 

Hopefully it will be recorded and uploaded today!

weekly update :)

Hi guys,

Today, both Maria and I had a photo shoot for the Texas Scholars Magazine. With the good luck that surrounds me, the water in my apartment was non-existing -.-'
Since I had no running water, dry shampoo became my best friend.
ANYWAYS, We have been interviewed about our Gear Up experience!
We hope to inspire other students by telling our stories!
If we are attending a university DEBT-FREE, you can too!

Of course a photo shoot can NOT be complete if we didn't take a selfie ;)

Maria and I, were so excited to see each other again, that we decided to do a tag! we came up with a few questions (which we answered in a video). I will be editing and uploading that video very soon!
Of course, all of our GUALA leaders are tagged!

I hope you guys have a wonderful week! Remember that Gear Up works!
