My new food obsession

So recently I have been loving the taste of cake. But I have been eating it in other ways than cake form. I have eaten cake pancakes, and recently made a cake smoothie. It is so good!
The pancakes are pretty much a regular pancake, you just switch some of the flour for cake mix of your choice. I have been doing funfetti.
For the smoothie you can do it two different ways. If you make it with icecream, put the amount of smoothie you want in ice cream, plus half of that again (trust me, it comes out less). then you pour milk so it's about half of the icecream. Add some cake mix, 1/2 a cup or more (to taste). Add a little vanilla. Blend. You can make adjustments, like more milk or cake mix.
If you use ice cubes, do 1 1/4 of what you want with ice cubes. Add milk about 3/4 of what you have ice. Add cake mix, vanilla and a little sugar. Granulated or powdered sugar works well. Blend, and make adjustments.

Honestly I would suggest trying this. It is super good!

Beauty

I don't know if you have ever read the Twilight series, but at one point Bella says that she sees things like she has never seen them before.
For me, I would try to imagine it, or even wish I knew what it was like. Today, something similar happened.
Everyday I walk home from school. Its a mile and a half walk, and today it was incredible. I looked at things more than I usually do. By that I mean I looked closer at them. Like a tree. I looked at it and thought "wow that is incredible!" because has bark on it. Have you ever looked at bark? I mean really looked at it? Everything I saw today was beautiful. I was surrounded by beauty! Even ugly buildings, or the fact that I was in the middle of a city, was incredible.
I don't know what gave me this change of  'sight' but it was sure incredible.

You know you are in choir when

You come home from performing and you chew to the beat of the song you sing...
