So on we dance...

I've decided that in the next couple of years i want to run a marathon. It would be such a great achievement, one slight problem... i am pants at running. Therefore i am trying to train myself, i have a feeling that this is not going to work. I'm quite a determined person but i much prefer sitting on the sofa watching 90210 than up and running for hours on end. I've planned three gym sessions this week, three, 3!!!!! I know its a stupid amount but if i plan ahead I'm more likely to actually go.

I'm also planning on going to a Latin class tomorrow, i thought it might be handy seeing as i want to stand out in my personal statement for uni. It also sounds like a bit of fun.

I am certainly not going to have a relaxing day this week, i already have two essays in and a mock for biology. To top it all off i am busy pretty much every night so i have no idea when I'm going to get it all done. But highlight of the week, we have an inset day on Friday and a pub quiz on Thursday night so my friends are coming over to mine for a girly sleepover. Can't wait!

Off to watch episode 11 of Awkward. (such a funny programme) TTFN!

Blissful Baking!

All day I have been aching to bake, anything really, unfortunately I'm busy for a couple of weeks so won't have time. However I can't wait till the 13th of October as that is when I will be baking to most awesome cake ever for my boyfriends 18th. I won't tell you what I'm planning, I'm afraid he'll sneak a peak and ruin it for himself. I will blog it after his birthday :)
One recipe I have been dying to try is a chocolate marble pound cake. They look amazing, this one is my favourite though:

It is by far the best looking marble cake that I have seen on the Internet, when I test it out I will blog the verdict and rate how easy it was to make. I highly doubt mine will look like that though!!!

Went to a Wedding Fayre today with my family. My Sister's getting married in a couple of years and she wants everything planned out and perfect. She said that I'm making her cake and I almost had a heart attack. I think I will need a couple of years to practice all her demands.

All this talk of cake is making me hungry :) TTFN
