Dreams...
Dreams is that wonderful feeling when you know you're doing something right.
It's when the harshness of reality begins to quiet and your heart sings.
It's that look when you see yourself in the mirror and smile, knowing who you really are.
Dreams is the one thing that drives me, soothes me and keeps me alive.
It's the world I live in, the world of dreams... This wonderful, wonderful world.
This fulfilling world...
This world that is in my heart and thankful soul.

Okay, that’s JUST about it. Man, I knew I had lots of resolutions but sheesh! You’re more then welcome to skip that part. I don’t want to bore people with the things I been wanted to do for the last few years anyway haha!

Moving on… ^__^

Here’s my pride and joy! My heart shaped and regular macaroons, cookies, and ice cream scoops. I think I worked a few hours all together getting them done. Its so much fun too, I feel so alive! These will be using this batch to decorate something; I should try to get some jewelry boxes and some picture frames to decorate on. I still have a lot of things to make like crapes, cakes, strawberries and etc. I also want to make some for jewelry/charm purposes. I’ve been surfing the net and found LOADS of deco-den sites. All of them are Japanese but they provide so much inspiration! I think my favorite is “Dolce Deco”, her stuff is amazing and now I claimed her as my deco den idol. XD

If anyone wants some links to the sites I’ll be more then happy to give them to you. Just remember to translate the sites to make it easier for you to navigate through.

Hoilday update!

Merry Christmas and happy new years!

I finally have time to update on my holiday! It was the best X-mas/New years I ever had! I have to give you guys a quick summery.

• For X-mas I got (for myself)

Canon 12.1 mega pixel 4.0x zoom digital camera

Zune HD multimedia player (which is badassery at its finest!)

A 72 copic marker set (I haven’t had the change to use yet *whine*)

• Gifts I got form others

70 dollar blicks art supply gift card (from boyfriend)

Some slippers and underwear from Victoria’s secret ( my older sister)

And pretty much windows 7 from my dad (to fix the zune software problem)

• Gifts I gave other people

50 dollar gift card to borders for my sister

A Nintendo Wii DDR game and dance pad set for my boyfriend

My mom wanted a new battery for her cell phone but I still need to know where to get it.

And man let me tell you, that zune was a piece of work. The software that you use for it wouldn’t work property. It was because of my window’s player was all screwed up. I’m not sure if anyone remembers but my computer’s motherboard had stopped working and after it came from the repair’s the window media player wouldn’t work. It might for at lease a few seconds, then an error message would pop up and it would shut down. Well, I figured that was problem it the first place. But we (boyfriend and I) tried numerous things to see if there we can do to fix WMP besides wiping the whole computer and putting window’s 7 on. But after a good 2-3 days of intense research and time wasting we decide that wiping the computer clean and putting windows 7 was the way to go. Which I was happy about because it was way to much stuff on my computer and now I can start fresh.

So my dad gave us the money to get windows 7 (which I considered a gift from him) and we did what we had to do. After a day and a half of that and so I finally got my Zune working and its great, I love it to pieces! You can even name your Zune and I decided to name mines…

Zunebaby :3…

I got that name maybe around the time I brought it and I couldn’t depart from it.

The camera I have too is amazing! I took pictures of the family, food, and my freshly made decoden pieces! It gets into so much detail my jaw dropped at some of the pictures I took.

And speaking of decoden, guess who’s been working on it? >:3

I made pink and blue heart shaped macaroons and ice cream scoops, freshly baked heart, circle, and square shaped cookies and waffles. All made with paper clay to give it a nice cookie texture. I also made some chocolate swirl sticks and tiny heart cookies out of polymer clay last week. I’m so excited! There are so many ideas that I want to turn into reality. Jewelry, cell phone straps, hair accessories, and just stuff! D: I got such a bad creativity bug this week too. I was even up two nights ago writing poems for my original comic!

Getting back on the decoden, I brought some modeling paste, sandpaper, and more paper clay so I can make more pieces for today. I heard you can use modeling paste for the whip cream since its acrylic it’s much easier to clean up and use then silicone caulk. You don’t even have to buy oil paints to tint it just cheap ass acrylic paint (already have an oil set for my silicone so that doesn’t even matter to me anymore XD). I have both now and I haven’t tried either of them so I’m hoping that I can try both out and see which I like better.

AND I can finally post pictures of my clay creations and update the Candy Sanctuary! YAY!

Oh yeah, new years. It was great we had lots of food including crabs and shrimps! I pigged my self out that whole night, it was great. And as for resolutions?

I have plenty…

But I think I’ll leave that for the next post when I put up my pictures of my holidays!

Oh yeah, oh yeah, I’ve been getting some much love from my friends lately with gifts and subs so I just want to say thank you SO much. You guys know that I appreciate everything you do for me no matter who small it is! I truly owe you guys the world and activeness around here whenever I can.

I’m so lucky to have friends like you guys *tear drop* :’D

Take care!
