I’m currently chilling with my friend Cory at her house. We’re designing my tattoo that I’m getting done when I go visit my best friend in Missouri.
In a little more than two weeks, I’ll finally have Oh, Sleeper ink.
So stoked.
Oh my gosh, that fairy cake is *stunning*. I was scrolling through the tinkerbell tag (as I do), and I saw it and squealed. You are so talented!
Thank you for taking the time to tell me that! It was my first time doing it all by myself and I’m my own worst critic. I also have a habit of believing that my family compliments my work because they feel obligated to do so. It’s nice to have someone I don’t know tell me that they like something I’ve done. I really appreciate it!
forever paranoid that I annoy every person I talk to
I wish my family would understand.
That sometimes their words hurt.
I get that they’re trying to help, but being honest and being a jerk are two totally different things.
I heard what you said the first time. You don’t have to keep repeating it over and over again.
It’s times like these I wish I hadn’t bought a car. I can’t afford car payments and rent/utilities.
13 months and my car is paid off. 13 months and I’ll be moving in with Stephany.
13 months and when my family gets a little too mean, I can just leave.
Yeah, it’d be nice to just leave.
I'm an idiot.
I went to take my baking final this morning and freaked. I couldn’t get out of the car. I turned around and went home.
Thankfully, my instructor called and is letting me do it in one of her other classes on Friday. My friends are taking me so I won’t be able to freak again.
I can’t believe I’m letting my fears stand in the way of what I want most.
Oh dear.
One of my managers just made the statement that he “knows I can do anything with cake.”
Pretty big compliment but that’s an inaccurate assessment of my current skill level.

The devil never takes coffee breaks so your resolve shouldn't either.
Remember that you are God’s child and the love He has for you is so deep and fierce that it can conquer any and everything.
Remember that you are His and His alone.
Whatever you’re currently going through, keep going.
God’s love never fails.

Reblog if you're going to Warped 2012.
“We’re used to being locked in a basement, fighting for recognition on the menu, fighting for our little space in the kitchen, fighting for our tools, for our refrigerator space or whatever else. We always feel like we’re the black sheep of the family… so you take a bunch of people like us and you take away the two things that matter the most to them: time and recipes. We don’t do ANYTHING without a recipe.”

I just wanted to say hello.
To the new followers I’ve gotten over the past few days.
Don’t be afraid to drop me a message. I like receiving those especially if they’re about cake! :)
I have decided that I am going to attempt to make a hot dog cupcake cake tomorrow.
Yeah, I might love cupcake cakes way too much. Haha.

You guys know the pac man cake I made?
Well, it didn’t actually go in the case until today. It’s my off day, but I went to work to have them taste what I’d made in class today.
Apparently, my assistant manager absolutely loved it. So much so that he had our store manager come look at it and she took a picture of it.
Gah, I love my job and I’m so stoked that I’m finally chasing my dreams.
:)
Just because something is hard does not mean it is not worth doing.
It usually means it is worth doing.
Don’t quit.
