CURRENT MISSION

To perfect my cupcake baking/decorating skills by April, when I am providing said treats for my best friend's wedding....any assistance/advice appreciated :)

PHILOSOPHY

Don't ever pass up on doing something you really want to do because you're afraid of doing it on your own; don't settle down and get a real job until you've done a whole host of crappy (yet often fun) minimum wage jobs to fund travelling the world and having fun; and, most importantly, you don't have to have a plan - but it can be a good idea to make up a fake one so that when your mum calls and asks what you're doing with your life you have something to tell her...
