CUPCAKE post

cupcakes and work spaces and indifference, oh my!

cupcakes: i made my first cupcakes without my mom's help for the first time ever. there was no occasion, but i just thought to myself, "i should totally make cupcakes on this lovely saturday afternoon" and i did. i have discovered through this experiment, that i absolutely love baking. i come from a line of bakers (well, at least on my dad's side - my great-grandfather and great-uncle) and really want to continue with this new found love.
I WANT TO HAVE A BAKERY WHEN I GROW UP! well, that and a liger, but that's a different story.

work spaces: i have finally set up a table in my room to store my sewing machine, sketchbooks, laptop, papers, random presents, research papers, etc. i work on a stool, with one leg placed on the end of the table so it's like i'm half-way into half-lotus and my calf doubles as a elbow rest (the only bad thing is that my leg falls asleep) and i am so excited that i actually have a stable surface to do shit on instead of using the floor. and i did, finally, after about a week of disgust and chills, have cleaned the bottom lip of the table that contained old cobwebs that had mingled with random fibers and dirt and dead spider bodies.
yummy.

indifference: i am becoming increasly indifferent to people (in general), the opinions of my teachers and "friends", messes, clothes, high school drama, writing (which sucks balls), and school in general. yes, most of these things should not be first and foremost in my mind, but it's annoying to not have any focus at all, as well as dreading the moment when i actually have to sit down and care about these things.

everything's alright though, how are you?

yay, danya is back! i'm sorry you are feeling uninspired, but at least you sound interested in baking. i find that i often have a heirarchy of procrastination. like if there is something i am really trying to put off doing then suddenly i feel like finishing a sewing project or washing the dishes. which is kind of weird, but i try to go with it and be glad that at least i feel like doing something useful at all.

also, what flavor of cupcakes did you make?

danya said...

vanilla with vanilla icing. boring, but a good starter and quite enjoyable.

nice sketch on your blog, by the way.

Unknown said...
