I just realized that al lot of my dreams have come true. I am talking cake dreams (it is still a cake related blog haha). I had/ have so much dreams when it comes to this art. When i started i wanted to learn how to make sugar flowers, i wanted to make a cake for a (famous) fashion designer, I wanted to learn to sculp, i wanted to learn how to make a professional looking cake and so many more dreams. Thinking about this, made me realize that i have come so far, from the part where i started.
I think that i am one of the few people who actually like that is started form at the bottom, if you can say it like that. I started with no experience at all. Even better, when i started i never baked a cake in my life, i never even had a cake on my own birthday's before...
Now, a couple of years later i can look back and think, this is what I accomplished, not anybody else, no ME. I am still learning everyday, and i hope that it will stay like that, i love the learn (yeah i am a complete nerd, always have been and proud of it). Not only have i found my true passion in life, but i this amazing journey i found what i was searching, myself.
i am going to let you guys in, in my private life a bit. I had an work related accident like 11 years ago (i know that some of you are wondering how old i am...) that left me with a illness on the central nerves system. Complicated story, i will not go in to detailles. This illness attacts my whole body, this meant that i had to change my life completely. I have an Uni degree in sociale work, my plans where to move to the UK, and start working for the British government and do research at the schooling system. Well, life had something else in mind for me. After a time of being sad, about what i had lost, that felt horrible, no seriously, everything that i thought i was, was gone. The nerdy girl, that earned her self an exchange project to Portugal because whe was one of the ten best students in highschool, the girl that skipped an entire year at Uni and added and second course because she could, was gone. That thing that i could hide in, was gone. I had panic attacks, did not want to go outside anymore etc.
And then there was the Cake Decorating, and i found the new me. I discoverd i could be nerdy in a different way, and i could be important to people with out having a 9 to 5 job. Do i wish the accident never happened, of course, i wish this uppon nobody, but do i want my old life back...well no! I love who i am, the artist in me. I believe that i always was meant to an artist (as an child i was very creative, so that always has been a part of me) ohh and don't tell her, but i have an identical twin sister who is an amazing drawing artist.
As a good proud sister, i am now going to show some of her work on my cake blog:
