Life Lately

Aloha!

Update #2

I'm super busy with school right now and I already have a boatload of homework!! Hopefully I'll get into a good routine as the college hype dies down and I'll (finally) have a real blog post. I also hope that these updates are still cool for the time being. I'm super excited to post my room tour on here!! 

So here's what I've been up too:

1. I went to a bar and a fraternity party. Honestly those things are kind of boring unless you drink so not quite sure how I feel about them yet..

2. I have had some terrible homesickness that's been so totally awful. I finally stopped crying for the past two days. I'll post about that too.

3. I'm going ice skating with some friends tonight so that should be fun! 

4. I've officially signed up for my college sailing team today which is amazing!

5. Classes are interesting and I'm really excited to learn. I'm curious to know how much IB will help this year. I've already been super on top of my homework and have put all of my tests and quizzes and huge projects in my calendar so I'm getting organized. I never did that in high school but I'm liking it so far. Only visible drawback of IB right now is that I'm not getting college credit for any of the hard work I've done these past two years...

6. I wasn't expecting this but it's SO HOT where I go to school. It's also really humid so everytime I step outside I'm a sweating mop. Pretty image I know.

7. Being independent is hard but I'm getting used to it. Thank goodness it's not real life yet!

8. I've been journaling almost everyday, by the end of the semester I'll have a compilation of everything that happened since college started!

I'll blog again soon don't worry, now is just a super hectic time for me.

xoxo,

Anđela

My Freaky Fudge

By my previous quinoa post you probably thought I was a super healthy person (or not..) but today, as promised, I baked. My mom told me that the recipe had to be a no-oven-bake one so as not to get the house all heated up. I decided to made fudge and this is what it looked like in the end!

I'm going to take you through the process of making this bad boy, because this was not difficult!

Memorial Day Weekend Re-cap

Memorial Day weekend came and went. It was eventful, fun, and spent with friends. What more could I ask for?

I made quinoa with sunny side up eggs. In theory this should have been a super healthy breakfast that tasted good. It was a super healthy breakfast.. But it did not taste (or even look) amazing.
