YOU HAVE TO BE

Gabriela Gomez
This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at TAMU chapter.

You Have to be

.

You have to be tougher,

You have to be stronger,

You have to be braver,

.

Why do I have to be anything?

Why do I have to adjust my actions?

When he was in the wrong.

.

He catcalled me

He touched me 

He disrespected my boundaries 

.

Is it so wrong to hate a world where I feel unsafe?

Where I have to change myself because of him?

Where I have to be tougher and stronger and braver because of his actions?

Howdy! I’m Gabriela Gomez, an avid reader who is interested in all areas of publishing and writing. And reading of course! I’m the Editor-in-Chief; I currently oversee all the publishing of articles for the Her Campus at TAMU chapter. I am overjoyed to read all the members’ articles and make any corrections that will help to elevate the article. I have been with Her Campus at TAMU since my freshman year. The first year I was a general member on the Writing and Editing committee. During that first year, I wrote a total of 23 articles and was always finding new ways to help. For my second year, I worked as the Senior Editor, publishing more than 80 articles and writing 38 articles. Now in my second semester of junior year, I have implemented a new pitch process for better organization and cleanest, I have already published more than 170 articles, and I have written 16 articles and will continue writing more! Besides working as the Editor-in-Chief, I am a dedicated student at Texas A&M studying Biomedical Sciences. I am also obtaining a minor in both English and Spanish. While not studying diligently, I work in a research lab grinding away, trying to get my name on some research papers (fingers crossed). In my free time, I read, obviously. I am also on the hunt for the best latte to ever bless this earth and love a good game of chess!
