Cupcake?
Oct 21, 2011
Did I mention I bake in my spare time? Probably not the best hobby for me to have, ut there is just something relaxing about it. I can usually bake without sampling, so that is a positive. I am baking for two birthday parties, one Cars and one Tinkerbell, both with personal cakes and cupcakes. Ughhhh, what did I get myself into? I'm not really worried about it though. I really need to get started instead of playing on here, or I will be up until 4 in the morning like the last time I did a birthday party, pirate themed,(Yes, I wore a costume!)I was sitting here, trying to think of what to talk about, listening to my Paramore Pandora station, and I decided I wanted to talk about when people lie straight to your face to try to make you feel better. Like, when I say something about being fat, maybe a joke about being chubby (no, I don't make several uncomfortable jokes about my weight in front of people, just occasional ones, I mean we all have to laugh at ourselves about something, right?) I would always get the response "You aren't fat". Really? I would be standing there, in size 26 pants, and you want to tell me that I am not fat. Instead of lying about what I am, maybe you could tell me something positive about myself. Some of my friends DID learn to focus on the positives, so I always got "You are so photogenic" and "Your hair and makeup look fantastic" That is better, right? At times, I don't think I will be satisfied until my full self gets a positive comment. Maybe I have to be skinny to get the comment, "Hey Lindsay, you look great today". We all know we want positive comments and social acceptance (yes, I brought acceptance into this).
I'm going to go begin baking.
-- I've got a friend who shows me all the good times, tells me I look better, chews me up and spits me out, and then walks my ass home.
