Today, at approximately one o'clock, I officially finished finals, and my first semester of college. I don't even know what to think. I still feel like I just graduated senior year, and in reality I graduated six months ago. Unreal.

This week was definitely one of the most intense and stressful periods of my life. Yes, I know that sounds silly, but it's definitely true. Now I see why college is a step up from high school. These grades matter more than ever, and studying until two, three, four in the morning to pass these exams is something no one typically did in high school, even for finals. 

I'M DONE THOUGH.

I'm going home tomorrow; my daddy's picking me up from school, we're lunching at a delicious local Jewish deli, and we're driving back home to middle-of-nowhere New Jersey. Usually I dislike going home, but now I'm actually excited. This is the first time I won't have to do any school assignments, which leaves plenty of time for more important things, like baking, watching movies, (trying) to cook, seeing friends, shopping at my favourite places, more baking. The good life :)

Quick outfit notes... this is one of my favourites to date. I love it when almost over half of your outfit comes from different members of your family. Certainly makes things less costly. My hat is my uncle's that I received after he passed away. I love it. Collars over sweaters is a major trend right now, and mixing patterns and textures keeps things surprising. And we all know how much I love sweaters... unhealthy obsession.

The holidays are upon us ! I hope everyone is having a wonderful start to the holiday season. Drink hot cocoa and watch plenty of Christmas films ! That's what I'm doing at least. :)
