"You alone are enough. You have nothing to prove to anybody." --Maya Angelou

It seems strange that I'm attending college right now. It's been fun and quite the relaxation to be away from home in new surroundings. I've have had an easy time getting off campus and biking around to classes, everything has become second nature to me within these last few 5-6 weeks.

I don't have that sunlight similar to the one in my room, but it's no longer easy to dress up. The girls with impressive styles in my classes end up in jeggings and uggs within a couple of weeks. But anyways, photos above: previously made desserts. I miss baking. I was able too this weekend, but I have to use the kitchens in another building so it gets time consuming to carry all my baking things. My ice cream is homemade and my signature cupcakes are always chocolate!

I don't know what happened. Neglection happens to blogs. Anyways, this outfit is from a while back--never got a chance to post. Many things passed these few months: graduation, a taste of college, traveled to Vietnam for 3 weeks (just got home 3 days ago)...

going crazy.

Dress, Marshalls.

My favorite dress; I've worn it to school, dinner parties, as a Sunday dress, on lazy days... with tights, it's my instant go-to outfit. And I want to wear it during the summer, and after that, around my college campus in several months. Until then, I'm going to miss being seventeen when my birthday rolls around in June, but I'm going to miss taking pictures near my window during the sunset too.

My chocolate lava cake didn't turn out the right way, considering its was my first attempt; I poured too little into the glass containers, the middle of the cake baked completely once the top was cooked. I used 90% cocao chocolate, which is practically inedible due to the extreme bitterness, but I love dark chocolate, so I added more sugar to suit my tastes (though, I'm not doing that again--I think I'm fairly better off with regular 70%). Other than baking, I'm preparing for graduation and my birthday in several months. I'm prepared for college, and nothing can really jump out and stop me. I just need to do more at seventeen.
