I haven’t posted in a long time, but I’m sure not many of you have noticed anyways. My life as well as the lives of the people who mean the most to me in this critical period of my existence have evolved for the better lately; and we are all so excited for each other! My best friend just got accepted to study culinary arts at Le Cordon Blue in Hollywood, and I could not be happier! She moves in August and the friend 3 of our unholy trinity will be back from SLO to help her move, and give us our last official summer of living in the OC. Friend 3 is in a more than satisfying relationship that we hear more than ever desired about, and once again so glad for her! The miserable part of all this of course is that my 2 best friends and I will no longer be close in proximity to each other any more, but I know that we will always be best friends! Out future lives and aspirations are becoming realities as we fall head over heels in love, accomplish out goals, get jobs, and become independent. As for my personal life, I finally got a wonderful job, surrounded by wonderful friends and people, who make me laugh and forget that I’m working! The Bruxië family in RSM is definitely where I plan on being for sometime. Finally removing myself from the humdrum life of a retail zombie I finally get to be in an environment that fulfills my passion. Food. I most definitely want to be in a field where I work with food. Perhaps pastry chef or restaurant management? The one positive and sure thing I know I have for my future is my man. Conner is my everything and I know I will be with him for the rest of my life! Now if only he could get down on that knee of his! More hints await him as our 2nd year together quickly approaches. Now you may be wondering how is my life related to a mixing bowl, Well 1. I’m a barista, so literally I am a human mixing bowl as I concoct delicious beverages and sugary treats. 2. As my life goes on, I have had to blend together smoothly my transition from high school student to college student, mesh old friendships and new, balance time between school, work, family, and boyfriend, and finally, make time for peace and quite. As I mix these aspects of my new life into a silky smooth “life batter” I grow and enrich myself into new experiences. The future looks bright and I’m lighting it on my own.
you make beautiful things, you make beautiful things out of the dust. you make beautiful things you make beautiful things out of us<3
‘Fat’ is usually the first insult a girl throws at another girl when she wants to hurt her.
I mean, is ‘fat’ really the worst thing a human being can be? Is ‘fat’ worse than ‘vindictive’, ‘jealous’, ‘shallow’, ‘vain’, ‘boring’ or ‘cruel’? Not to me; but then, you might retort, what do I know about the pressure to be skinny? I’m not in the business of being judged on my looks, what with being a writer and earning my living by using my brain…
I went to the British Book Awards that evening. After the award ceremony I bumped into a woman I hadn’t seen for nearly three years. The first thing she said to me? ‘You’ve lost a lot of weight since the last time I saw you!’
‘Well,’ I said, slightly nonplussed, ‘the last time you saw me I’d just had a baby.’
What I felt like saying was, ‘I’ve produced my third child and my sixth novel since I last saw you. Aren’t either of those things more important, more interesting, than my size?’ But no – my waist looked smaller! Forget the kid and the book: finally, something to celebrate!
I’d rather they were independent, interesting, idealistic, kind, opinionated, original, funny – a thousand things, before ‘thin’. And frankly, I’d rather they didn’t give a gust of stinking chihuahua flatulence whether the woman standing next to them has fleshier knees than they do. Let my girls be Hermiones, rather than Pansy Parkinsons.
