Beignets From Sunday On a Monday
Summer's winding down and I leave for school again in a little less than a week. I'm not used to having such a long summer. In high school, we would get out at the end of May and come back in early August. Now, I get out early in May and leave in late August. That's almost four months of summer, which I'm totally greatful for; but I'm excited to get back to school.
I don't really know where I was intending to go with this post, but the above picture is of some beignets that I made yesterday morning. When we went to New Orleans, we brought back some Cafe du Monde mix. I was a little nervous and actually messed up the first set of batter, but the second set was much better and even my mom said that they were good.
For the next week, I'll be helping my mom out in the library at her school along with getting things ready to move back into my dorm on Saturday. I've also started thinking a lot about the direction of this blog and what content I want to feature, so hopefully I can start making the adjustments as needed and start posting regularly again. I'd preferably like to do at least two posts a week.

Idle Life Update: It's Getting Real

August is proving to be a very busy month for me. Summer vacation is over and I'll be going off to college later on this month. Right now I'm mostly just getting last minute things together for my dorm room, buying my books, and trying to enjoy my last days of freedom.
I feel a little weird because I'm not nervous about college, but I'm also not jumping off the walls with excitement. The way I see it, I'll be starting school just like I have in the past; the only difference being that I won't be at home and I'll only have two or three classes a day. My major is mass communications with a focus on journalism, and I'm looking into minoring in public relations. I'd also like to be able to do something with English, but I want to see just how much I can handle for this first semester.
Currently, I'm thinking of different post ideas about starting college and also a mini-post series about the MTV Video Music Awards since it's one of the many award shows I look forward to every year. A lot of content is coming so don't give up on me yet :)
