Rainbow Cake, Rain Storms and Coffee

In the past week I have gotten to do some pretty awesome stuff. Last Thursday at our college Bible Study I met a girl that I will admit I have a friend-crush on. I'm supposed to hang out with her next weekend. I won't lie I'm super excited about it.

I also have been looking for a second job. I think I may have found one...I'm trying not to get my hopes up. But if I do get the job, you will hear about it.

My best-friend Erin came to visit from Ohio this past weekend. It was great to get to see her after several months of not being together. We went and saw the Castle. She will never again make fun of her mother and I thinking that it's amazing.

I have also put together my little "bistro set" for my balcony. It was so hard. The box said that it would only take 1-1.5 hours to complete the entire thing. I ended up taking more than 3 hours to put it together. Unlike many people, I read the directions. Let me tell you this set had bad directions.

I also made a Rainbow Cake. It was AMAZING!! I actually made it with the help of my friend Becky's daughter Annabelle. I picked her up from soccer camp and we came home to make the cake as a surprise for her family. Her brother is allergic to dairy and eggs, so he can't have most cakes. But he was able to eat this one with no problems. (I made lactose free icing) I'm making him another cake for his birthday next week.

You know how there are those certain people that you always count on seeing at certain places. Well one of my friends here is one of those. He is a fabulous hugger, I truly believe he could be in the Waldron family. Yeah that's really the kind of hugs I'm talking about. (If you have never been hugged by a Waldron family member, find one and hug them...It's amazing.) So anyway my friend, Tim, is a great hugger, but is somewhat agressive. These girls in our group sometimes play a little game called "Escape the Tim-Hug." Basically they try to be in the same place as Tim without getting hugged. They told him about their game at dinner on Tuesday night, we all laughed so hard we almost cried. My mother thought that it was terribly mean.

I have been consuming a large amount of coffee lately. I realized tonight I have a correlation between rain and coffee. The more it rains the more I want.

Exploring What I Like.

So I have decided to explore me, and what I like to do. I want to find out what exactly it is that I can do and have fun doing. For so many years I have followed the people around me, and become "interested" in what they are doing. So since I have just a few friends here in Lexington, and a lot of extra time on my hands... I am exploring me.

I have made a list of things I would like to do this summer; including Lexington sites and attractions, classes, and a lot of other stuff. I'm pretty excited about it.

This is also super scary. For the first time in a long long time, I am going to go do and try things just because I want to. I don't remember the last time I did that.

I will keep you updated on my adventures. I am going to try to take pictures of everything.
