Happy weekend beautiful people, I wish everyone a beautiful and stress free weekend!
Some years back I have only had dreams of becoming a baker, but yet I didn’t even have plans towards it so it was merely just a dream, As a person I love cakes, how sweet it is, I love the designs and everything that has to do with it. I have tried learning other skills like being a makeup artist but I couldn’t finish and at the long run I lost interest in it, I have also tried being a fashion designer but my spirit, body and soul wasn’t into it, so during the process I had a terrible accident that almost damaged my left thigh, I stayed in the hospital for a month, and even when I was discharged home, I began to learn how to walk again, it was really terrible, I went through a lot of pains.
Along the line, while I was home I taught to myself that when I finally pick myself my the pains that I’m feeling what would I do? Mind you my family has a spent alot on my health, I also lost my relationship of 4years, I was really down but nevertheless I had my life and goals to achieve, after a year and some months of staying at home, I decided to go after goals that were just mere dreams, my partner as then got me a very valueable gift some years back, anytime I looked at that gold chain necklace and earings the pains kept coming back, so I took them and sold them off and used the money to pay for baking classes, I felt bad when I sold them but it was the only way I taught of getting pass it, I registered with lady that normally bakes our cakes, her cakes her so yummy, I was really happy.
Normally I taught cakes were easy to bake, yes its actually easy but you also have to put in alot of work, the first day I started the class, for me it was hectic but fun, we did a mickey mouse themed cake, my boss had taught me how to mould some things out of sugar, working with sugar is fun because anything can be achieved from it, I registered in march, I went there almost everyday of the week, the transportation wasn’t easy because my house is actually far from the baking shop, but I iust the zeal and the mind of achieving this very dream.
So recently my boss told me that it was time for me to my own project, yes I have been baking and bringing to the house, baked my birthday cake, but I wasn’t really proud of how it came out, I do bake cookies and other snacks too, so for this project was really big, my boss gave me the sample, truthful I was scared at first because I was thinking whether I would be able to achieve something good, so I faced my fears, on Wednesday I started baking, I baked for myself and also baked for her too becaus she wasn’t around, and Thursday I started with the sugar work, I worked on four icing sugar, I’m really surprised too at myself, I made some traditional moulding, like beads, kolanuts, and garden eggs, and then on friday I started covering, its a three step cake, So i had to cover the three layers all myself, this was where I almost gave up, I began to have serious headache.
I left the work and went home, now yesterday was my last day on the practical because the next day is sunday which is today, so I told myself nothing was stopping me, I layered everything, Then I started fixing the designs and yes it came out well. I have always loved and had this dream of being a certified baker, its something I derive joy in, honestly I had to push myself very hard, this is my dream and nobody would help me achieve it except I do.
