Another day at the office..

 I found a website of random things you can chose to "like" on facebook.  One of them being:

Tiffany:  that awkward moment where you make a milkshake and no one comes to the yard
 me:  I don't even know what that means
 Tiffany:  "my milkshake brings all the boys to the yard, and they're like it's better than yours, damn right, it's better than yours.  i can teach you but i'd have to charge"
 me:  haha I know the song
 Tiffany:  well its kinda awkward if the boys dont come to the yard
hahahaha
 me:  that is awkward
that was the most ridiculous conversation

It's Not Wasting Time if its Hillarious

http://www.27bslash6.com/missy.html 
24b/6: This website follows this guy, David's email correspondence with various coworkers and people who have written him complaints/ posted bills for him, etc.  He is completely ridiculous and you will find yourself struggling to stay in your seat from laughing so hard.
http://perfectlytimedphotos.com/
Perfectly timed photos: enough said.  This is also a website that will make passing and wasting time welllll worth it.

If we are not sharing these websites with each other and unsuccessfully stifling our laughter in the workplace, we are most likely sharing cooking recipes and/or talking about food. Below is the beginning dialogue that will eventually foster our joint business - a bakery (or similar).
me: "In 2010 Nicole and Tiffany shared an architectural internship, but all they could talk about was food..."
Tiffany: "Often their work suffered because they were constantly looking up recipes"
me: "sharing and comparing, they may not have produced much "architecture" during this time, but they ate well"
Tiffany: "pretty soon all they had time for was eating and going to the gym to support their eating habits"
me: "So they decided to leave Architecture where it was and give into their true passion - food"...  
Tiffany: "much to the disappointment of their significant others, as they were hoping a large salary in architecture would follow their years of taking out student loans"
me: "luckily all of the time they spent perfecting recipes when they should have been focusing on furthering their architectural careers, made their new food creations a complete financial success."
Tiffany: "the end" haha

Probably the Best Cupcakes Ever

Chocolate Chip Cupcakes Recipe_ Martha Stewart
If you think that warm just-out-of-the-oven chocolate chip cookies are as good as it gets - well it just got better.  These are amazing.  Seriously.  I put chocolate frosting on them (you can never get enough chocolate) and well, you get the point.  Try them.

My friend Jenn and I made these last week for the second-to-last episode of The Bachelorette.  We've been getting a group of friends together to watch this (guilty pleasure) show since the beginning.  And most nights more guys than girls show up.  The show is pretty entertaining, however the real entertainment comes from my friend Pat who can make almost any situation hillarious.  Last week he blurted out something along the lines of "I Love you Chris, you are prefect..." something to the extent that sort of made me wonder....  just kidding Pat.

Maybe I'll Try this Blogging Thing Out

I've always hated writing.  But I love writing in my journal.  As an attempt to improve (or just give myself some confidence in writing) I have decided to give this blogging thing a chance.  I am about to enter my final semester of graduate school for a Master's of Architecture.  I find myself wondering about how exactly this will all play out in my life post-school.  I intend to blog my way through this quarter-life crisis.

I also thing I need to mention that cooking and baking need a place in this blog.  My first year of marriage has provided me with the perfect backdrop for kitchen experimentation.  The successful recipes just have to be shared!

My bus ride to and from Denver each day gives me ample time for reading.  I just finished reading Donald Miller's A Million Miles in a Thousand Years.  This book has inspired me to view my life as a story.  I hope that the story of my life is and can continue to become a good one that is interesting to be read.
