So......

I feel like I should write, but I don't really know what I should write about.

I'm moving back in with my parents at the end of October. I don't mind so much, they have satellite, HBO and my dog stays there- so she can start sleeping in bed with me again. :)

I also don't mind, because my apartments lease agreements are only in 12month increments and i'm hoping to be traveling a lot after I graduate, as well as go to culinary/pastry school.
I'm just worried about putting all my crap in one room. Yikes.

I've definitely let myself go especially after I started dating Richard. I gained like.. psshh 15-20lbs or SOMETHING RIDICULOUS like that. I need to get back on this workout thing. I was thinking about joining LA Fitness once I move back in with the parents and don't have as many bills to pay.

So I was thinking...
and I think every individual has their own, what I call "momentum". On a flat line, anyones momentum can push them from anywhere on point A (left) to point B (which depending on the person can be, up, right down, slanted, diagonal, etc). Some people make their own momentum by continually having goals they work towards, and others work with the momentum they have (sometimes thats none). Some people are content where they are inbetween point A and point B and just stay there. So there are millions of tiny points that are in the process of traveling from point A point B. I am hoping to find someone on my journey to point B that shares the same drive of momentum. Because lately, I feel like I keep meeting points that I feel are going the same direction, but i've been passing up.

My momentum is going, and it's not stopping for anything.

Capellas Cookies N Cakes

Hey you guys, I need some help!
My friend who runs a birthing service, massaging service (something about being a doula?)
Heres her website: http://www.barefootbirth.com
Anyway, she helps women give birth, and goes to ...preggo woman expos..
Well long story short, she's invited me to be a part of her team to make goodies for such expos, meetings and shindigs her company holds with clients.
Normally for expos, they make free cupcakes and people ask them if they cater or will do cupcakes for baby showers and such, but... they definitely dont. lol. That's where I come in.
Charlies (my girlfriend) wants me to make the goodies for the expos as well as have my business card handy for anyone that IS looking for cupcakes or cookies for baby showers and little parties (EEEK!!!!!!)
AND I'll get reimbursed for the materials I'll be using, paid and get free advertising on Charlies BareFoot Birth website!
It's going to be touch with school and work, but COME ON- when does an opportunity like this come along when i'm in the midst of trying to figure out how to get into the culinary world of pastries?!

SO... I want two business cards... we'll im ordering some at the end of the week, but I need some opinions!
This one is what i'm thinking for preggo expos, and for anyone expecting, or any "cutesy" situation:
card

and here's two card options that are just everyday ones... i don't like these as much as the green one above :/
ideas? suggestions anyone?

Hey you guys! I'm alive!

So I actually wanted to write in here yesterday, but due to some occurences, I wasn't able to, but I am now!

So I worked out yesterday, yay! I haven't done that in a while..
It felt good afterwards. but it's definitely going to take a little bit to get used to braiding work outs into my actual work schedule and school schedule. It's starting to kick my ass, and i'm just trying to keep up.

OH I graduate in May! hoooray! in Anthropology :D how cooool

I took my first knife skills class at the Rolling Pin's Kitchen Emporium! a 3 1/2 class on how to cut things, what kind of knives to use, how to stand, the right length of knife for an individual person.
I'm also going to my Rolling Pins cooking class orientation this upcoming sunday, so I can help chefs prep and such for any cooking classes. And on the 23rd of the month, I have a cake decorating class! I'm getting so excited...
oh,
MORE EXCITEMENT!!!!
the mom said that for my birthday she's going to get me a kitchen aid mixer! A FUCKING KITCHEN AID MIXER! and I can even get it early if I want... but I want to make sure I don't have it during a lot of school work or exams, because I want to play with it all weekend!!!

oh baby! haha.. i already have the blender, Ijust want that flippin stand mixer.

I also met someone at the Rollin Pin that is going to the culinary school that I was thinking about going to. She said she loves it.. and she's an assistant at the RP too.. All these classes have been so much fun! I can't wait to take more!

okay, honestly this isn't going to be such a sufficient blog entry because i'm actually in class.. haha
Technologies for Preserving Heritage (an Archaeology class, lol.. *sigh*)

White a little more later!
