I Did Something Girly for Once!

I love Tuesdays and Thursdays because I end my last class at noon. Then, I get at least 5 1/2 hours to do hw, study, run errands, relax, etc., etc., before I have to tutor.

Soooooooooo, what did I do during my 5 1/2 hour gap today?

Mmmmmmmhm! I baked cupcakes! I frosted and sprinkled them, too (and I NEVER do that)! : )

Sadly, I used at least HALF of the frosting!

If you read closely, the calories are 140 per serving and there are 13 servings per container! I used at least half. You do the math. Hahahah. FATTY PATTY.

So they look pretty scrupulous, right? FALSE. They’re very dehydrated because after I baked them, I turned off the oven and left them in there to “bake” a little more. Because the oven would still be hot, I decided to bake it for 15 minutes and then turn it off to let the “heat” bake it for 7 more minutes (since it said around 22 minutes). I also left it in longer than 7 minutes and didn’t open the over to let the heat out.

So I thought to myself, if I can’t even bake little, cute cupcakes, how am I going to be a mom? So saddddddd. ME = FAILURE AT LIFE.

Hahah. Anyway, I had fun. It was nice being girly for once. That’s all that matters.

P.S. If you didn’t attempt to figure out the math, let’s say I used about 12 servings of frosting. 140×12 = 1680. 168/23 (not 24 because I ate a cupcake before I frosted them) = 73.04 calories per cupcake (also assuming I evenly distributed the frosting). Doesn’t sound THAT bad, right? But, you forgot to add the calories of the cupcake itself.

In conclusion, cupcakes = death. Good day.

Art11A Home Assignment#1

So I just finished my first take-home art (foundations of drawing) assignment and it was darn hard! The assignment was to copy a picture upside down and blow it up into an 18×24 sheet paper.

This the picture I had to copy. UPSIDE DOWN.

So it started off pretty well…

Yay! Almost finished!

So it looks pretty decent upside down, huh? But look at it when I turn it right side up….

Yeah. WHAT THE HECK, HUH? That’s what I said. Drawing upside down is supposed to help prevent drawing the shape/feature/etc with our own knowledge (ex. how eyes look) and just pay attention to the lines and shapes for a more accurate picture in comparison to the original. Yeah… that failed for me. BUT, despite that, I am pretty happy about my work especially since my last attempt to draw was in 6th grade. : )

Lastly, charcoal is ze devil. I don’t like charcoal.

Here Am I, Send Me

Here Am I – MercyMe

On the other side of the world
She stands on the ocean shore
Gazing at the heavens
She wonders, is there something more
Never been told the name of Jesus
She turns and walks away
What a shame

Just across the street in your hometown
Leaving from his nine-to-five
Gazing down the road
He wonders, is this all there is to life
Never been told the name of Jesus
He continues on his way
What a shame

Whom shall I send?
Who will go for me?
To the ends of the earth
Who will rise up for their King
Here am I, send me
Here am I, send me

Whether foreign land or neighbors
Everyone’s the same
Searching for the answers
That lie within your name
I wanna proclaim the love of Jesus
In all I do and say, Unashamed

Whom shall I send?
Who will go for me?
To the ends of the earth
Who will rise up for their King
Here am I, send me
Here am I, send me

How beautiful are feet of those who bring good news
Proclaiming peace and Your salvation
Whom shall I send
Who will go for me
To the ends of the earth
Who will rise up for their King
Here am I, send me
Here am I, send me
Here am I, send me

Unashamed – Starfield

I have not much
To offer You
Not near what You deserve
But still I come
Because Your cross
Has placed in me my worth

Oh, Christ my King
Of sympathy
Whose wounds secure my peace
Your grace extends
To call me friend
Your mercy sets me free

And I know I’m weak
I know I’m unworthy
To call upon Your name
But because of grace
Because of Your mercy
I stand here unashamed

I can’t explain
This kind of love
I’m humbled and amazed
That You’d come down
From heavens heights
And greet me face to face

Here I am at Your feet
In my brokenness complete

I’m a New Soul
