Growing up is scary.

I have been putting the thoughts of graduating, getting my first 'Big Girl' job, and saying goodbye to the life I have come to love in college. I was doing so well at putting it aside by focusing on other things, but the time has come for me to accept the changes that are close. For now, I am taking things one step at a time, while still grabbing on to fun and youth I can still enjoy.

SOOOO. . . I have decided to pick up a new hobby (since making sorority related crafts after graduation is not cool.) I have decided to take up cake decorating! I am so excited! I love arts & crafts, so I feel like I could be good at this. I have a long way to go, though. I have to get the utensils needed and start practicing. But, I have been reading up on different techniques. Not only do I need to get the tools for decorating, but I also need to find people to eat the cakes! ha I am going to get one if the 6" pans, so that my trials are small, but I DEFINITELY DO NOT need to be eating lots of cake!

Well, that is about all for now. . . Playing in the snow & a girl's night out is calling my name. :)
