Day Six: Fans

And when you smile; the whole world stops and and stares for a while...:

And its time for Day Six
Day Six: Fans

I'm not going to sit here and brag that I have my own fan page on Facebook or anything. *Checks Facebook* Well I certainly hope that I don't have my own fan page, and for the record if there is one out there I did not create it!!!

It seems like an odd thing to like about oneself. In fact, I had to think twice about it before posting this. I guess you could say that I have a few fans in this world. I'm certainly not like Lady Gaga or Katy Perry or Justin Bieber. There aren't millions of girls screaming at me where ever I go. I certainly don't want that, in fact I would find that kinda creepy. Anyway I'm getting caught up in detail...

For those of you who haven't guessed already I love baking. In fact I love baking so much I was given Pac-Man cookie cutters for my birthday. (I collect cookie cutters, I also have a large collection of dinosaur cookie cutters and at times they get taken out and its dinosaur cookies all round). Most of my Friends love eating baked goods, so the relationship works very well. I guess you could say my baking over time developed a bit of fan club. For some it was because I would bring a chocolate cake even when it wasn't asked for. (Trust me, chocolate cakes makes Opera rehearsals fun again). For others it was because I made the effort in perfecting baking that wouldn't kill them and or give them a tummy ache. I guess it just grew from there....

I know when I compliment her she wont believe me. And its so, sad to think she don't see what I see...

Even when I'm not there people seem to know who I am. It is not just because for a long time I was C's other half. Or the Very supportive girlfriend of M. Apparently I could stand out from them. People would comment about how nice I was or how much they loved my baking. They weren't even prompted. I never used to believe these stories when I first heard about them. I used to wonder how people who had hardly spent any time with me could be so nice about me. I would say that it was because they didn't know me, but the purpose of this blog is to change the way I look at myself.

But they are nice about me. And still are. Hearing that you are amazing is a nice feeling. It makes you feel like maybe in the craziness of the world, a world full of earthquakes, tsunamis, high food prices and university assignments, just maybe I might be doing a good job. So I might not be a famous movie star or lead singer or U2 but I still have fans.

Cause you're amazing
Just the way you are
And when you smile,
The whole world stops and stares for awhile
Cause girl you're amazing
Just the way you are

Thank you everyone who has stood beside me, and behind me, and in front of me all these years in support. I appreciate your support, you can keep me going. You guys are amazing too :)

<3 My fans and everyone else
