Dusk before dawn

January 2, 2022 by Ashley Willies

TearsI silently yelped into my blanket crying. Mom flew back to Texas after coming to DC for the Holidays. I was already missing her presence. I was also crying with gratitude. The New Year sparked a reflection over my stroke and following recovery. I stared at my pushchair/wheelchair that I previously used to depend on […]

Tuesday Food for Thought

February 16, 2016 by Ashley Willies

For the past two weeks I have been waking up around 5:30 am. I do yoga and/or a more high impact workout, shower and hit the books. I did it to improve my time management, health and to hopefully improve my academics. The former two definitely improved, but the latter needed some tweaking. Sigh, why […]

January 7, 2014 by Ashley Willies

Ah, the infamous question that pops during small talk of all kinds because people just genuinely want to know what you’re doing in life because they are nosy they care.  Post-baccalaureate programs are essentially intense focused programs that gear their participants (usually those who have already acquired a bachelor’s) into or toward a certain field.

Bye Texas!

June 16, 2013 by Ashley Willies

Alright, the Willies Clan has officially left the Lone Star State. 🙁 It is so sad! Gotta love Texas. We spent our last few minutes in El Paso trying to find the fence and picking out differences between Mexico and the US. (There wasn’t too too much of a difference.) We also tried to find […]

Heading Out West

June 16, 2013 by Ashley Willies

Well, the Willies Clan is on the road! Mom and I haven’t slept since yesterday and we headed out around 3:45 am from Houston. We hit traffic at 5 am within Houston on I-10 of all times! Anywhoo, I saw my granny yesterday for a quick goodbye and of course she was acting like she […]

A Grandmother’s Love

March 6, 2013 by Ashley Willies

Guys. This is awesome. So, my grandmother just Skyped me three times in a row because I didn’t answer the first two times ( I was on ‘do not disturb’). Now, if you don’t know my grandmother…then you don’t know her. Whatever. She is my father’s mother and is has every bit of Panamanian sass […]
