I'm making a cake right now. It's currently in the oven, turning into some MOIST, SOLID goodness. It was just from the box, so it's not like, hours of effort. I'm pretty positive I mixed the entire thing and put it in the oven in less than ten minutes. Yeah, I am a smooth winner of epic proportions.
I also have to help my brother make cookies, as he's got a bake sale or something at school tomorrow. I say that I am a nice sister for doing that. Although my brother has a real talent for making GOOD cookies; Unburned, chocolately goodness in your mouth. I cannot do that.
I made cookies over the weekend, oatmeal coconut chocolate chip cookies, and while they weren't BURNED, they weren't picturesque. Plus the fact that I had some still in the oven when I went to make something in the oven didn't BODE well for the last batch. They didn't burn, but they did turn even more brown on the top. EPIC!
They're okay though... Cruncy more so than chewy.
Today I bought The Screwtape Letters by C.S. Lewis at co-op. I actually just used my credit, so no money actually went into the exchange. It was nice. I was also going to buy Fahrenheit 451, but the copy I was hiding in some other section was NOT BEING NOTICEABLE! I guess I DID hide it well! And when I say HIDE IT, I just meant putting it somewhere where I could grab it later...
Man, I am a horrible person. But that copy of the book was three dollars cheaper than the other one! So why pay more? EXACTLY. I was just being savvy. Except y'know, ultimately failed. I'm going to have to keep on creepin', to see if I spot it. The same thing happened with The Catcher in the Rye. I'm always disappointing myself.
*sad face*
Today I got to listen to a hockey player TALK about GOALS. IT WAS SO BORING! All I did was go ... the entire time, and want to leave. Except I stayed! And when it was over, I went back to my class. As did two other students. I got to leave early though, and walk to the bus. It was nice, without the rushing! Except I WAS rushing, because my friend was ahead of me, so I was trying to catch up to her. I did! That was nice.
Except her best friend is dating the guy she likes, and it's causing some drama in her life. DRAMA SUCKS. AS do lame friends! DOWN WITH LAME FRIENDS, I DECLARE!!!1
TRUTH!
Well, I gotta go deal with that cake now. I hope it didn't burn too much!

My day was lazy
Today was Sunday, and I slept in. My mom woke me up a few times, asking if I want breakfast, and later came into my room to inform me "I slept the day away". I check my alarm clock after she left, and it was 1:20. Yes... I totally slept the day away.
So when I woke up, I made a cake (from the box). Since my cousin slept over last night, my aunt and uncle were coming to pick him up, and staying for supper. So for dessert, my mom informed me I had to make a cake. AND I DID.
My mom added some stuff to it, that made it FANCY. Like strawberries, and blueberries. It was quite good, but it was KIND OF sweet. I was like "!" so I just ate the fruit, cake and the whipped cream. Because I didn't want to eat the icing or anything.
I watched Arrested Development!
It was nice. I laughed, even though I was TIRED. So I went outside and sat in my mom's car, reading a magazine. It was warm in there, but it kept me awake. Usually it would make me tired, but I was wearing rubber boots, and it was hot on my legs. So that kept me awake. I got worried I was going to get rubber burn or something, though.
-_-
I didn't!

It's a combination of good and bad, I'm (not) going to lie
I had a debate this evening, but I didn't go. Why not? Well, I wasn't prepared enough for it, plus the fact it was regionals, I wasn't going to win anyways.
Yeah, sore loser move, but still. I still gave the rest of my group my notes and such. So psha, good luck to them! I'm sure they'll do mightly fine.
So today when I got home, I had a few letters on the table addressed to MOI! In short, I got accepted into the three programs I applied to at the college in my city. Child and Youth Worker, Early Childhood Education and Business - Marketing. While I am interested more so in the marketing and early childhood education thing, I don't know what one to choose. How do you decide this? I don't even know if I'm going to go there, either.
As my first choice is university.
Sa-igh. I'll have to see what my parents say, anyways.
SO SO SO SO. Today is Monday, and for the update of my life, I am not getting the co-op placement at Chapters. As Chapters isn't accepting co-op students this time around, it's a bust. So I'm going to try at Coles, but I'm not so confident about this. I mean, even when I tried the library today, I was DE-NIED. Whoah! I think I might just end up at a school or something. For little kids.
Oy.
Maybe with this co-op route, I'll see if I even WANT to do the early childhood education program. Whoooooooooah. Plans! I'll have to see if this works out. I am not even sure, myself.
But in other news, last night at 11PM I started to make a cake. I didn't even put some icing on it until after school, but it's okay. The amount of icing on it at the moment is slightly too much, so I have to wait. There's something about still drippy icing that has an ew factor.
What else has an ew factor? MONDAY MORNINGS. At least next Monday I have a holiday! =) No school. Hiphip horray!

It just cuts off
It is Wednesday evening.
Is it just me, or is this week going by slow? Sure, the days are going by "fast" (to a degree), but the overall picture? It is SLOW.
It's kind of lame.
Criminal Minds is on right now. I made the brilliant observation when it started that they called it Criminal Minds because they look into the minds of criminals. BOOYEAH, I SAID IT.
My sister just gave me a look.
It's all very in ter est ing.
So, I don't know what else to say. I was going to have some cake today, but it was all gone. I don't have the will to make an entirely new cake from scratch, so it won't happen at least until the weekend. And when I do make the cake, I am going to post the recipe. It's a seriously good cake where you can only have a sliver. In other words, if a diabetic was to eat it, they could get extremely sick.
It's intense.

CAKE
Right now I'm listening to the Veronica Mars theme song. Otherwise known as We Used To Be Friends by the Dandy Warhols, it's a tres awesome song.
And now I just decided to put on the Veronica Mars soundtrack. Good music, I inform you!
I wish I had this show on DVD to watch. Argh! ANGST!
Well, I don't know what to write. Today I made a cake that I should've made last week. For what? Just for the hell of it! It's a chocolate cake, and rather awesome. Except I haven't ate it yet, I ASSUME it'll be awesome. I'm also assuming this is the cake my sister made a few years back that literally made my day. So if this is the case, I will post the recipe.
I would like everyone to experience such wonders.
And I'm not just being nice, either.
But speaking of nice, I better eat the cake!
