Good Things Come To Those Who Wait

Hello everyone! I just have a short and funny story to share. I went to Jamba Juice today to work on yet another biology experiment. That whole lab is very frustrating. Anyways, I ordered a breakfast wrap. As I was about to eat it, I dropped it. I'm so klutzy and clumsy. BUT the nice people of Jamba Juice made me a new one and that made me soooo incredibly happy. They didn't have to do that but they did. Random acts of kindness have such power. 

Good things come to those who wait. Yup! That's right, I finally have a new Coffee Shop chapter available and up to read. Sadly this is one of the last episodes. I know I've said that many times but this time it's true. I think I have one last chapter and an epilogue left. I've run out of creative juice and I have no motivation to add a new nemesis. There have already been so many extensions and new characters. I've fallen in love with every single character as I've watched them grow and become different people. The story is different from what I planned it to be but I don't think that's necessarily a bad thing. Once you set foundation for a story there's no saying where it will go. I started this story in the summer time of 2012 and now it's April of 2013. This has been a huge writing project and one of the most ambitious that I've ever undertaken. It's almost 200 pages now. That's MASSIVE. I guess I can save all the thank you's for the epilogue but I really do appreciate those of you who've read what I've written.

I'm definitely going to miss Coffee Shop but I'm sure I'll find a new project soon enough. I'm happy with where Claire is. In the meanwhile, I'll try to wrap up Scarf Boy and find a new calling and inspiration. 

You guys are the best! Thank you. 

Baking Is Hard Work

Hellooooooo! Happy weekend! I did bake yesterday and they were wonderful cupcakes! I'm so exhausted from baking though. My friend and I might bake together sometime though.

I had very ambitious goals for these cupcakes. I wanted them to look like professional cupcakes with frosting piped on and everything. The piping bag is the bane of my existence. I gave up and just used a good old fashioned spoon. Haha, I think they turned out nicely!

S and I switched carrying them since neither of us had a place to put this huge tray. Cupcakes are a great way to express any sort of emotion. They're easy to make too! I highly recommend baking to everyone!

Campaign Manager

Hello, I've been a bit busy and sleepy. I know there has been a serious lack of blog posts. I apologize for that because I know it's no fun reading a blog that never updates. A couple new things have happened in my life since we last talked.

Firstly, I have realized how much fun a campaign manager can be. It's the perfect non-commitment job for me. Non-commitment means that I don't want to become a campaign manager as a profession but it's a fun hobby for me. I love making posters and advocating to people I know and don't know. I enjoy bothering people and seeing each person vote makes me so happy. One vote never seems like that much until you try being a campaign manager. Every vote counts, as cliche as that statement is. If only my friend's sister had told me earlier.... ah well it's nice discovering a new passion in life!

Secondly, I really don't like TG romantically at all anymore. We're 100% friends and that's totally fine with me. It's funny how little I try to see him. Of course I'm still friends with him but when I did like him I would actively wait for him and try so hard to talk. It sucks that we don't talk as much because I don't try as hard. S really confuses me. We're friends yes but there are so many mixed signals everywhere. He's a sophomore so I really wanted him to vote for my friend's sister. We got into this huge argument because he didn't want to vote. Why would you crush other people's dreams like that? Yeah, it doesn't affect you but it means so much to someone else. It takes 2 seconds to vote... Anyways, somehow I agreed to bake him 20 cupcakes... hahah. You'll see lots of my cupcakes tomorrow! Byes!
