College App Entry: Pro Gingerbread Cookie Decorator!

Lol. Yeah, pro cookie decorator! You wish you could do that! Lol. It's hard work though! Anyways, I was volunteering at the gingerbread cookie maker thing on Saturday. Basically, it's where people order cookies, we fill the orders, and the proceeds go to homeless shelters and rape centers. So for the first shift (9-12pm), I cut out cookies, which was actually kind of fun, since you cut out as many big gingerbread girls/boys as you could, then you fit in little mini gingerbread babies around them. Then you put the girls on their tray, boys on another, and babies on yet another. I'd bal up the scraps and shoot them into the brown tub, sine it was huge, but some people carried them over. XD
Then from 12-4pm, I decorated cookies! Haha, I actually followed the designs for like, the first 10, then I was like, screw this! And made my own designs! I had a Santa cookie. =P We got to eat the reject cookies too; those are the cookies that are pockmarked, broken, or have back designs on them. Lol. I swear, I probably decorated 120 cookies. Not that bad, a cookie every other minute. When I was done, my hand was sooooo cramped though! I moved it, and it would be all stiff and hurt like hell. XD THe person in charge of decorating, Kristen, let me take some reject cookies, decorated them, and take them home though! I took three, and I still have 1 3/4 left. I ate the arms and legs of one. =P

Afterward, I came home, did all of my math, French, and bio homework (OMG aren't you so proud of me?), and put off my English project until Sunday, which is now put off until Monday, because I was in a really crappy and unproductive mood today. Then Vivian came over around 8pm to look at my math quizzes to see if she's missing anything being stuck in regular Alg. 2, but apparently she's not. Then our parents talked until 11:30pm, then Vivian left, and I went to bed around 12 midnight. Actually, collapsed on my mattress and went unconscious is probably more like it. I was pretty tired from all that gingerbread. XD

I didn't do much today. Sat around going on the computer, playing games, eating, sleeping, and talking with friends. Didn't even touch anything school-related, besides my PE clothes, because I had to pack them. But yeah. I'm so screwed tomorrow. XP
