It looks like one of Santas Elfs visited and got sick all over my house. I decorated everything yesterday! Then again I have been decorating since November...I just took it slowly until December.

Stockings, Tree, Window clings, wreath, christmas cards, etc are all up and whats even better! I've started getting parcels in the mail!

Christmas shopping it 87% done. Its just the little things that are left. Stocking stuffers, little trinkets that go along with gifts. I have them all written down though, and know 100% what to get. Now I just need to find the time. Yay for stores being open 24/7 now and me having a few hours to spare when I go to work?

I have a week before I want to have everything that is going to Alberta sent. I need Jo's Address!!

Christmas aside nothing has been happening. Its not snowing yet...its sunny right now. I shouldn't say too much as it is going to snow soon.

Thanks to Nevi's newest post I don't feel like such a noob anymore. I went into a gift shop (Which I am in love with btw) and found some wonderful loose tea...I got it home and thought "Wtf do I do now...I forgot to buy the strainer thing" Nevi's post mentions a "Tea Infuser" so now I know what I need to buy! Durf me so smrt.

Now I wait for Rob to wake up so we can start the day. Not sure if I want to play Secret of Mana, Zelda, Tales of Symphonia or Dragon Quest.
Haha Dork.
So awesome day had by all!

Lately work hasn't been fun at all, which really isn't cool. Yesterday was better, talked with the boss and was all excited for today. Jim and I did 100% better today then yesterday. Now all we have to do is just fine tune everything. For example - we need to figure out when we should stop making more dough so we can mold, cut, etc stuff that is already out before it sits too long and is declared dead.

I start at 4 tomorrow, which I am not too stoked about. I despise the ovens with a passion, even though I am getting better...I am still not the biggest fan.

Omg! While at work today, everything was going just fine and then the alarm went off. Everyone except the baking manager was standing around kind of dumb-founded. (I've been employed for 4ish months, and have NEVER gone through the "What to do in case of an alarm" process. Even if it IS obvious, and you evacuate the building...I just didn't know that we had to shut down all the equipment and what to do with the ovens. The alarm lasted 5-10 minutes. Then not even 15 minutes later it happened again. >.>! Atleast we know the alarms are working, because there is going to be a fire pretty soon if stuff does not exit the ovens. Even with the two alarms we had all of the doughs made by 9:00 (Yes that is good :) )

Chaplin just saw I had lunch and bolted across the backyard.

I'm trying to decide if I should set up my Christmas Tree. Only thing standing in my way is cleaning. Its not even a big cleaning job either, its more straightening. I also hate the garage, but it would be better to get the tree now before Rob gets home and occupies the garage with the car. I am going to have to decorate a little funny this year, I must puppy proof the bottom.

Speaking of the puppy he is 10 months Dec 3. He sure didn't stay small long, I also can't believe its December tomorrow. Where the hell did 2009 go? Seriously.

Baking, Christmas and Babble.

Busy month ahead. Not sure if I should be happy or stressed. I know that I am going to end up being both so I'm not even going to worry about it.

I'm going to put a list on my fridge after this, or I am going to forget and then go even more insane then I already am.

Robs Birthday cake is on Sunday. I almost gave up on it three times now. Yes it is just a cake and I've baked and decorated them before. This is just the first time using Frosting Sheets a.k.a. tracing paper to put on cakes, for people who are artistically impaired :D First I buy the wrong type of sheet, once I find the right type of sheet I'm unsure they will get here in time and now I can't find edible decorating pens anywhere. So with it being Wednesday today, I'm thinking of making cupcakes or a cake and experiment with these frosting sheets.

Then within the first week of December, I'm going to buying presents and cards to send back home. I want everything sent by December 12th. Which means sometime today, I'm going to pay off my credit card and then use it some more to buy gifts. Luckily I just have to visit one shop for EVERYTHING that is going home. I just realised I have Jo's old address. Blah! I know!! I am a genius. Nevi I'm going to use you as a messenger girl!

Also every week I want to bake something! So 4 weeks of baking translates into Peanut Blossoms, Gingerbread with White Chocolate, Sugar and ugh I need another recipe. Or should I just make only 3 and save my 4th item for Christmas dessert. I like that idea *Goes recipe searching* I've always wanted to make Peanut butter Marshmallow squares...but I already have a Peanut based item >.> Okay...since Rob and I will have cake on the 29th I am going to be lazy and not bake anything for the first week. I hate myself, I am still undecided - I COULD try to make Apple Cinnamon cookies. Apple Cinnamon, Gingerbread and Sugar sounds good, I can say goodbye to Peanut Blossoms for this Christmas.

I also have to begin ordering Robs Christmas present(s). Or make my way into Victoria which would be a shit ton easier. Victoria and then go order if I can't find it.

Omfg I feel like I am going to explode. Thats one thing I hate about myself, I want to plan and then plan everything at once and get flustered. Baking aside, I must concentrate on gifts going home and gifts getting ordered.

Besides all of that mumbo jumbo. Its sunny! Its been raining and windy with weather warnings all over the place and for one day its sunny. It makes me double happy I have the day off.

I think to start off all of my Christmas insanity. I will pay off my Credit Card, go and buy Birthday and Christmas cards. Maybe stop off by the gift shop and get 3 gifts taken care of, as they are the ones that need to head to Alberta.

*Nerd Break* OMG I still have 2 B A Master from Pokemon on iTunes. It is sad that I still remember 80% of this song, and am singing along. Maybe if I keep these songs around, I won't feel so old. *End Nerd Break*

I just need to figure out a way of telling Rob he can't go shopping, without him finding out what I am getting him for Christmas.

Ugh.

With Robs Birthday being 18 days away I am starting to panic. I have his cake planned, except I need to find edible rice paper which is a large pain in my ass. I have 3 ideas for birthday presents, but I'm not sure which one to peruse. Actually now that I'm thinking about it, I'm sure I'll go with one of my first two ideas and leave the others for Christmas.

Speaking of Christmas, I've moved and lost addresses also people have moved and changed addresses. If you would like cards, gift(s) or anything please send me your address :D Sarian@Shaw.ca

Yes okay I know its only the second week of November, but I found the best shop in the world. Since being in this wondiferous shop I have thought of multiple gifts for multiple people. Also Nevi should know how I like to plan Christmas early.

First week of November I had one of my windowsills decorated. Yesterday I went to the Dollar Giant (Which is pure love imho) and bought window clings. My windows now have snowflakes, santas and snowmen (Snowpeople?) all over them! My next step if making my first ever wreath! I found a wreath hanger at Dollar Giant and got excited about FINALLY having my own. I am pacing myself and decorating one corner at a time. So I'll make my wreath and then put it up middle of next week!

I am thinking of a silver and green? OMFG I KNOW! Silver and Lavender! Those are my Christmas colors, maybe with a touch of blue. I just made myself really giddy.

When Rob gets home we should be going into town, I'll see if I can stop by Michaels and proceed to make myself bankrupt. Before Michaels though I MUST remember Edible Rice Paper! I should sticky note that to my forehead Y/N?

With all this talk of change, I am feeling alot more like myself then I have been. I'm not sure if that is good or bad yet.

OMFG Yay! *flail*

Omfg.

I want to go to school. Problem is not alot of schools teach Baking/Pastry Arts. If they do they are in Vancouver. True Vancouver isn't super far away....its really only a 90 minute ferry ride and an hour maybe two (Two is stretching it) drive to the ferry.

Rob knows I want to go to school, and knows they are in Vancouver. We were talking about me going by myself. Yes I am talking about 100% I would be living in Vancouver alone. I still have no idea how I feel about that.

I have found two schools though Northwest culinary Academy of Vancouver and Pacific Institute of Culinary Arts

Northwest is 4 months and $8603.50 (Including: book(s), tools and uniform)

Pacific is 6 months and 13,975.00 (Including: maybe the uniform?)

Both schools are in the heart of Vancouver. So making my way to a ferry to get home wouldn't be too bad...on second glance, I just might have to take a greyhound!

The only real cons about going to school out of town is - I would need to find room mates, these schools have no dorms. Also finding a part time job to support myself.

Do I follow my dream and one day have my own sweet shop or do I wither and die?

A little dramatic on the death part I know, but hey it works...?

Ack! I'm worrying about school which is still months in the future, when I should be worrying about getting my "L" (Learners) by Saturday. Yes I already did have mine from Alberta, but when I asked to just have it transferred I was told I couldn't. You know whats good motivation to get up and finally get your license Getting a car like this! Yes its a red convertible. Yes its in Robs name right now, but I will use it to learn and it WILL be my first car. I am going to study and get my "L" by Saturday. Then so help me god(s) (Or anyone) I WILL have my license by my birthday...or the next year. Which would make going to school SO MUCH EASIER.

Omg I just figured out my major plans. Get L - Get license - Go to school! But first, I need to go to bed.

OMFG HORRAY FOR A 3 DAY WEEKEND - even if it is in the middle of the week.

Rob found a truck that he wants. He has recently formed a love for 4 by 4ing. This isn't a problem at all...except he wants his own vehicle to take up into the bush with his buddies. That is a problem, for me anyway.

He just went up the road to fix a friends computer, and if he comes back with the truck I'm going to kill him. Or think of ways to kill him >.>

I'm really miffed at Rob right now. Yesterday we were going to go out with his friends. Well our car was in the shop getting some leaks fixed, so why not take the bus? We never went anywhere. The only reason that bugs me so much is that Wednesday is my Friday and Rob doesn't work. So Wednesday is the ONLY day we can spend the whole day together (After 10am, but 10am is still early to spend the whole day together) So yesterday I was told we'd do something today. We went to get the car, found another leak, and took it back. OMFG such an exciting day, and Rob wonders why I am upset. He works at 8:00pm and hes not here. Sure we can hang out tomorrow, but Rob won't be home until 2am and he'll either stay up until the ass crack of dawn playing god damn PS3 or 360 OR he'll go straight to bed, but won't wake up until after 12. Waking up after 12 wouldn't matter except on Friday I have to go to bed any time between 4 to 6pm. So that leaves us very little together time. Which is the way it has been for a very long time.

I've been trying to find a new job, in the baking field but its really difficult. So I am thinking I just might go back to school now instead of later. BUT if Rob goes and gets that truck, I'll have to rely on student loans and shit and omfg So much is pissing me off right now.

When I talk to Rob I feel like I am talking to a rubber wall. What ever I say bounces off him and back to me. He says its because I never say anything with conviction. I've just given up trying to be heard, because why even try when I know he isn't paying attention. "Well I am ADD" *facepalm*

I'm just going to listen to iTunes and bake some cookies. Music and baking are two of the few things that make me happy.

Tuesday when Rob and I took in the Explorer to get an oil change we stopped at the mall. Rob randomly said "I want to get a hair cut today" I then agreed that I needed one too...and tada!~ A Chaters salon was right around the corner.

Hair cut! and teh Chaplin )

Also I was making the icing for my cupcakes. I wanted to make orange icing...and for whatever reason I just couldn't get the right color and gave up. So I just decorated them with flowers, swirls and any other random shapes that came to mind. I still have a week for Halloween baking I will get orange cupcakes with bat sprinkles on them!!

P.S. I am feeling better. I love my friends much hugs and love. Also I GOT A WII AGAIN! LET ME GET MY WII NUMBER BRB! 7132 2625 6802 5745!

Haha Dork.
So I blame Jim for everything.

Everything Dammit! >O

I have been out of the loop for anime and manga for a long time. Wednesday was the first time in a long time, that I went manga shopping. Which made me want to start watching Anime again. I have been so out of the loop that I have no idea whats new or good anymore.

That is why I blame Jim.

I finally finished watching Neo Angelique Abyss...after months of starting it. Its only 13 episodes so I really had no excuse to just watch them all. I just started watching the second season of Neo. I have an anime that I downloaded ages ago, all 24 or 26 episodes that I still haven't even watched the second episode for. I was so excited when I found the whole series that I HAD to download it all at once.

I saw some add for Gintama on crunchyroll, which made me wonder if its good or not.

I guess the main reason for this post is to ask for help. I want back in the loop! I need new anime to watch and manga to read D:

Anyone help me!~

P.S. If anyone comes to visit me - we are going to DOTS. I am in love with that store :)

New Favourite Store!

  • Sep. 24th, 2009 at 10:53 AM
Haha Dork.
Happy Birthday Nev!!

Lots of love!! :D


Yesterday rocked! I went out with Jim and Tyrel after work. I was excited, because it would finally mean I could see more of Victoria then Silvercity, the ferry and greyhound terminal. We went to this store called Sky Haven which is alot like Showcase back home. The only difference between the two is Sky Haven is more of an anime shop then Showcase ever was. Yes Sky has its homage to comics, trading cards, game cards etc. It just has a great selection of other stuff I thought I couldn't find. I freaked out in the store when I found

T.M. Revolution - Seventh Heaven

Nothing else mattered to me when I found that CD. Yes they had Clamp South Side, which I need to compliment the North Side...but at the moment I found that CD I wanted it and nothing else.

We then went out to Mayfair Mall. We went to a bunch of random stores. The highlights of the mall trip were - We went to a hat store "Headquarters" and each bought a hat. The guys bought fedoras, and I got this one Except mine is brown and brown plaid.

After the hats we walked past EB Games. Now earlier in the day Ty was saying he might not be able to stay the whole day, he might have to go to work. When we walked be EB we caught a glimpse of the guy that Ty would have to go back to Langford to meet. So when Ty was talking to the District Manager, Jim and I just buried ourselves in games. When Ty came back, he was beaming and had just got the news that he was promoted - Assistant Manager!

We bummed around the mall more, got some food and decided to go to Boston Pizza for munchies and drinks. However around six Jim decided to go home to his Fiancee and also he had to be in bed early...he worked this morning and should be done well seven minutes ago. Earlier before Jim left though, I called Rob and invited him to come down and join us. He was done school around the same time we got our first round of drinks. When Jim went home, Rob called and suggested we go see a movie. Ty, Rob and I went to see "Inglorious Bastards" from what I saw...I fell asleep in the theater. You can stop laughing now...I had been up since Midnight and it was around 7:30 when the movie started. When we left the theater I was "awake" for 22 hours.

Now I'm home thinking that I want to go into town again. I had originally planned for yesterday to be a clothes shopping day for me. Then Jim spoke up and things changed. I was slightly bummed I couldn't go shopping, but I was happy that I was getting out with people and seeing new places. Which beings me back to my original point - Do I go back downtown and go to DOTS (Discount Designer Clothes) where I could spend 20 dollars and get a new outfit (Jess got a new outfit for 16 dollars) or do I wait until my next pay day. I did go over my budget by 40 dollars...It all depends on what we have in the bank account. Yes I did just get paid Tuesday, which is why I wanted to go out...but Rob paid some bills this morning *sigh* I wish they would abolish bills already.

....and then I missed the bus, I guess I COULD walk to the bank. Luckily the bank I deal with and Robs bank are right across a parking lot from each other.

Huzzah!

So I've been meaning to update forever.

On my way to work I'll think of whole journal entries, but they never see the light of day. Today was my first day on ovens. I was so nervous...and still kind of am. Except now, I am only nervous of the top ovens. First off, yes I am almost too short. Second - the rack continuously moves! The others have a locking mechanism so its easier taking items out/placing them in. I am just tall enough to grab the moving pans as they spin around. I just get flustered and think "I'm going to get burnt!" Which I did...but not horribly. I got burnt by steam...I forgot to step back from the oven right after I opened a door. Then the rest of the day every time I put my hands into oven my two burnt fingers got agitated, because of the heat...which made for fun times.

Yesterday and today I was supposed to still be on ovens, but Craig is working and things were different. I showed up at 3 and began processing doughs and Kelsey showed up around 4. Now, nothing was ready to go into the oven until 4. Now I suspect you are asking, then wth did I do for an hour? I got stuff ready to be put into the prover (A small humid room that helps yeast and makes the bread rise) So around 4 Kelsey was told what was ready and etc. I snickered to myself XD As much as I don't mind ovens and really like Kelsey, it was nice to have a break. So when she went on break I tool over for 2 hours and then home time! Today I would have done the same, but Kelsey said she was fine and so I worked on the bowl. It sounds all mystical doesn't it "The Bowl" I like mixing all the doughs for the day so :P.

Yesterday when Rob and I were going grocery shopping, I saw this cute dress that I wanted. (Clothing shop 3 stores down from the grocery store) Unfortunately the dress was 3 sizes too big...but I managed to find another one! I went and got shoes for it today. They are bronze sandals that have a 1 inch heel. I LOVE them! I have wanted a pair of sandals like this forever. Its also awesome that they were only $15 XD

I get a 4 day week next week~ due to a schedule mistake!

I just saw that Depeche Mode has a new CD. I was at Future Shop holding it thinking "I've never seen this before is it new? Hmm it says 2009 on the back I wonder..." Why didn't I buy it? Its new and I didn't buy it, New Depeche Mode Has Gone Unpurchased! How could I let this happen! Oh well I get paid on Tuesday~ Then maybe I can go shopping on Wednesday and look for those half sweater things, to match my dress :3

Today has been awesome, I am in an awesome mood and now I am going to try and play Kingdom Hearts...maybe now I can get past Monstro.

Work and Puppy Update

I love my job!

I really do. When I was done, I went and got an ice cap! Then with music blaring and ice cap cooling me off I danced my way down the street. Well okay I walked down the street with a bit of a hop in my step, and danced a wee bit at the no walk signs.

Gillian is so awesome. We were singing and dancing while we were cleaning. Kelsey is great too, I work with her and Gillian tomorrow. I met Craig today, he is quite the opposite of Gillian. Not saying that is bad...Craig just has a particular way of doing things...which is not the way I have been trained.

My bosses are the best. Mel and Shel are always asking if I am doing okay. They set up my hours so I was starting early, but not super early...yet. I've started at 7 and 5 and tomorrow I start at 4 then all next week I start and stay at 3.

Tomorrow Chaplin is getting his nose fixed. Hurray! I am going to be so worried at work tomorrow. When I look up at the clock and its around 9, I am going to be thinking of my puppy. I won't get to see him until later at night. :(

Excuse me while I collapse.

I have a bakers hat though! I am so very tired, but I'm going back tomorrow so I must like something. Today I made alot of the same stuff that I made the Saturday I went in for my DOT. (Display of Talent) So I kind of knew what I was doing.

Tomorrow is another 7 until 2.

I am so tired I can't even think of anything else to say.

Yay new job!

Puppy Update #1

Well Chaplin might be hypoglycemic. His Glucose levels are about 20 points above normal. Its not 100% is he is or isn't, but all the signs are there that he is.

Also his nose didn't get fixed today. Turns out that his nasal passage is blocked. Think of a straw, now pinch the straw closed. The closed straw is resembles Chaplin's nasal passages. Even with his nose all squished, he has been able to run, play and be a normal active puppy.

A routine neuter and nose fixing surgery, turns into a neutered hypoglycemic dog that needs to see a specialist for his nose.

Rob and I love Chaplin to bits, and right now want to shower him with so much love. We just have to wait until 2 :(

Rob and I just got home from the vet. We dropped off Chaplin to get neutered and to get his nose fixed, so he can breath better. This morning I kept saying "Come on Chaplin! Lets go get your nose fixed :D" Even though some part of me knew he knew what was happening today. We'll get a phone call between 3 and 5 to go get him. This is the first time in 3 months without him running around :(

On a brighter note, I start work at the bakery on the 16th. I am quite excited.

I am still waking up or I would post more. Bleh

P.S. I almost forgot (actually I couldn't forget if I tried) Ragnarok Online -DS! I had a mini squeefest over this yesterday. I can't wait until January, I want it now D: I also want Kingdom Hearts DS - Hurry up damn you! DX

So I got the job.

I would be jumping for joy, if I didn't have to figure out how to get to work for the ass crack of dawn. Yes I knew that working at a bakery would have me at work early. I just wasn't expecting to start at 3:00am. Thank god for Timmies being 24/7?

Yes I posted the first part all worried, then sat down and figured everything out and now I am happy! I just called the baking manager back and was babbling all excitedly. Then when I was done talking to her, I proceeded to dance around the kitchen.

Yay!!!!!!!

EDIT:(2:30pm) OMG YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Saturday at 7am! I'm going in for a few hours to see if its what I really want to do. Apparently Melodie has hired some people and they have tried a day or two and said "Yeah this isn't for me" So Its going to be one hell of a change from starting at 11:30 and 3:00 but omfg yay *bounces off walls* I had apologized for sounding so excitedly flustered on the phone, and she said "Don't! I love that, its good" Which in turn made me feel better. OMFG YAY! Saturday is going to rock! Not only do I get to try out a job that I have wanted for a long time, the beta for Aion is this weekend. Huzz-fuck-ya!

So today is day 3 of the weeks heat wave.

Leslie, Chaundra and I went down to Jordan River. Its the first sandy-ish beach I have seen on the island. There was enough sand to lay down a blanket. I had Seven Layer dip and Cherries for the first time ever! (no not together, I tried both separately)

The three of us layed out on the beach reading, until we couldn't take the heat anymore. Leslie had the wonderful idea of wading into the ocean. This idea made me super excited! I have NEVER waded into ANY ocean EVER. Sadly I didn't bring any type of swimming attire, just because well I didn't think we would be going into the water for an extended period of time.

I had waves of ocean water, splash into places I never thought I would have ocean water. Including my mouth...>.> Not to worry though I did bring a change of clothes :D

Even though I had sun screen on, it did little to help. I tanned even more...my arms are tanned nicely up to my neck. The shirt I decided to wear had thicker straps, so there is a darker patch of skin down the middle of my chest.

So all in all today I indulged myself into 3 new things. :)

I love the ocean.

Weeeeee!!~

So if you read my lj you know I posted a resume for a bakery which could put me on the road to my career. That was 9 days ago :/ So I got up and e-mailed them this morning, asking if everything went through fine. Roughly 15 seconds after I hit send my phone rings, and its the bakery. I know have an interview 11:30am on Thursday. and I'm nervous D:

I have absolutely nothing for interview clothes. Rob said "Wear your purple dress" Just fyi that dress is white with bigger purple flowers and just looking at it I knew I would feel weird, which in turn would reflect at my interview. I'm happy for this interview, it just sucks that its the day before I get paid so I can't go out and buy fancy clothes. I'm thinking I'm going to have to take a trip to the Salvation Army.

The bakery is a few blocks away from where Rob works in Langford. Which makes me happy, because I'm actually familiar enough with that part of the city I won't get lost XD.

YAY!!!!!! This so far is one of the best mondays evar!

I have the bus system figured out, I just need to talk to my neighbour to see if I have it figured out right. The maps on the transit site are hella confusing >.> Then again it could be really simple and I am just over thinking everything.

...I'm starting to pace. Why the hell am I pacing? heh heh Nerves ^^; I feel like a stalker, I keep peering into the backyard to see if Kevin is there.

Thursday is going to be a long day, interview in the morning and work in the evening. I already told my references in town to wait for a call. I might be getting ahead of myself x 1000.

Srferhygtuhyghiariyutghiojfgiohurtuyhikj!!! Is everything running through my head atm.

The tough part is what do I tell my current boss. "Thanks for turning the store around and not firing me when you first showed up. I know my leaving kinda fucks you over, because I know more then you do but you wouldn't even have this job if I hadn't turned it down. Have fun bullying co-workers and customers :D" *Flips Mike off* Y/N?

I hate you YESASIA, I hate you good.

So I just got my Visa paid off.

While searching around Youtube for music to listen to - Yeah I play the music videos as I clean and such - Anyway...I found a Korean (?) band called 'Brown Eyed Girls.' Omg I want their CD. I found it on Yesasia.

I should just be shot NOW. I found the CD PLUS 2 Awesome TMR CDs. The one that I lost, and a 10th anniversary singles CD. I want the singles CD, because it has every song that I love! Plus some new ones I haven't heard.

Now I have not put anything back on my credit card, simply because Chaplin is getting neutered in August. So Rob and I will need every penny we can spare until the middle of August...Yesasia is going to be the death of me.

Yesasia and Amazon are going to condemn my soul to an ever lasting Visa bill. *cries in a corner*

P.S. HARRY POTTER RULED!!!!! It made me cry, twice :( I couldn't watch when Snape cursed Dumbeldore, I turned away and his my face in Robs arm. *sniffle*

P.S.S. I want TMR so bad

P.S.S.S. I feel like myself for the first time in a LONG time - I love Leslie :D

Dane Cook - Bugging
I have gone from liking my job to disliking my job to liking...up and down. Recently I have been disliking my job a little too long for my liking.

I was talking to my neighbor and she told me that there are job postings on Used Victoria. Surprised and curious I went searching. Holy crap there were job postings for everything!!

My first choice was to look up Food Services. First two pages there was nothing but servers, line cooks and stuff I didn't want to touch with a 10 foot pole. Then there like a lighthouse beaconing me to the add I saw COBS Bread is looking for people. I got excited, anxious, nervous and all around flustered. I started thinking that this could be the job that helps me get my foot in the door to my career.

When I woke up I wasted no time at all writting up a resume to e-mail away. I Triple and quadruple checked EVERYTHING. I looked at my resume several times before e-maling it off. Looking for no good reason except to check stupid things such as "Omg is my phone number right" "Crap! Did I use the right address" I checked the spelling so many times.

I was nervous for a good 5 or 10 minutes after I sent my resume. Before and after work today I was checking my e-mail like crazy. Then I started thinking that I might still have my phone on silence from the night before.

I was thanking Lisa so much for telling me about the job postings on used Victoria.

Now I sit and wait anxiously...good thing I have lots of gum to chew or my fingers would be down to bones again.

So a couple days ago I decided to make some cupcakes. Which failed twice :( a few days later Nevi made some awesome looking Green Tea Cupcakes. She was gracious enough to show pictures and recipes!

Since I fail at making frosting of any kind, I used the basics of her recipie and tweeked it for my purposes. I then found a cupcake recipe that fit my theme like a glove! It made me so happy inside :D
