I Am A Baking God.

The Micro-Tyco Project

As part of the Get Into Enterprise module we were tasked with creating and running a business using only £1. The group I was a part of decided we would run our business as a bakery which meant having to sell various cakes within uni in order to raise as much money as possible for charity. Our group all chipped in by baking cakes at home in order to take in and sell. I was told I was to make the cupcakes that would be sold at our stall and with only having £1 between the whole group we had to rely near entirely on food donations which of course led to just raiding our cupboards!

So when it eventually came time to start baking I stuck on the Foo Fighters album "Sonic Highways" (which is an amazing album by the way!) and started the process of making cupcakes and I hated near enough everything about it I was knackered and to make matters worse the kitchen was roasting hot and it just wasn't fun at all, it got to a point I though about just giving up and cheating by buying pre-made cupcakes and selling those but I persisted and after what felt like an eternity later the cupcakes were finally finished and ready to be sold.








(Yes I know they look terrible)

When we had finally sold our last few cakes we headed to our tutorial to count how much we had raised over and above the original pound and we were genuinely surprised to find out we had raised £92.91 in the little over 2 hours our bakery was actually operational!

The Lion, The Witch and the Minor Health Kick

POST 2

16/2/15

Today was a bad day.

It started with a lecture on the second floor which is what has now led to the minor health kick which realistically may last a week or if I keep up this level of motivation and keep really committed this health kick might even last two weeks though I really doubt that. 

To get to the second floor I of course had to take the stairs which led to me suddenly realising how much I needed to exercise as I was really out of breath and it wasn't even that many stairs if im honest I don't really understand how I can be this level of unfit as every shift I do in my work im walking the equivalent of about 5-6 miles per shift (nearly 30 miles a week!!)

I'm also planning on actually doing sports that require at least a little effort unlike snooker...which I was playing tonight but yeah as of writing this "Blog" I have started eating healthily (as you can see below!)

So...aye

Post 1

Hi, so...aye as part of my coursework for one of my uni modules we have to create a blog about well something and if I am being completely honest I have no idea what to write this on in order to not be boring or at least less boring than I will inevitably make this. 

Music will play a big role in this blog as I seem to try and force something to do with music into most of my uni projects even if its to do with One Direction but the other thought for this blog was to focus it towards travelling as I for as long as I can remember have wanted to travel for a few years after uni as a kind of break from normality.
