I’ve found my calling! And accomplished my childhood dream of becoming a baker!
I’ve 26F wanted to be a baker since I was little, baked when I was younger, took a break for school, chose a major I wasn’t passionate about but would pay bills and will soon get my degree in Biology but I’ve worked in kitchens since I was 18, 26 now. And I’ve moved up the rank of regular baking to now specialized baking in a proper bakery.
It’s not the most glamorous or high paying job but I couldn’t be more happy, I spent so look searching for my dream job when i was in it all along. I LOVE BAKING!
I wake up excited to go to work and the time flies by! I have so much fun! Just wanted to share because I just realized i accomplished my childhood dream :)
I peed myself at Disney World in front of my husband and his parents.
I (27 female) was at Animal Kingdom with my husband (27 male) and in-laws (in their 50’s). It was January, it was cold and I was also just getting over a cold. We were having a great time and one of the first rides we went on was Everest. It is a very fun roller coaster but caused me to have a coughing fit afterwards because of the rush of cold air that went into my face on the ride.
When we got off of the roller coaster we were standing together, I was facing my husband, and his parents were facing each other. While they were debating about where we were going to eat lunch I was having a coughing fit, and I squatted down to get a cough drop, and some tissues out of my backpack. That was where I messed up. I didn’t realize I had to pee, and as I was coughing in the squatting position, I fully peed myself. I looked up at my husband and just mouthed “I just peed” He looked back at me with wide eyes and nodded. Once I stood up, he suggested to his parents that we should find a bathroom, not mentioning what just happened, and we found one. Apparently, my bladder had completely emptied, and there was no toilet paper wrapping that I could do to save it. It was only ten am and I didn’t wanna be getting on rides where other people would sit and also, I didn’t wanna smell throughout the rest of the day.
I come out of the bathroom, go up to my husband, and say, I need new pants. He nodded, and we walked with his parents to where we were going to get lunch while my husband and I were looking for shops that would maybe have pants as we watched. When we got to the quick service location, I told his Dad what I wanted to order and that I was going to run across the walkway to the store across the street. His dad having no idea why I was going across the way to the store joked “Oh okay don’t worry I’ll eat your food for you.” In a dad way. I nervous laughed way too loud and walked away.
I walked into the store, and it’s one of the biggest ones in the park luckily. I find some sweatpants which would be comfy, but I didn’t wanna be wearing sweatpants around Disney World all day, and we had a nice dinner reservation at the end of the night. I keep walking and find an athletic skirt that is perfect because it has spandex underneath. As I find the skirt, my husband calls me and said that he followed me in to the store to help, but I was too fast. He told me he found the sweatpants and I told him. I appreciate it, but I found the skirt and he waited for me at the exit of the store, so he could show me where his parents were with lunch.
We were eating at some outdoor tables, and why I didn’t change before I don’t know. I think I didn’t wanna take up too much time in the store and be suspicious. Even though I knew that they would figure out what happened later in the day at least. We saw and ate lunch like normal and I told them that I was going to run to the bathroom before we went to the next attraction. My husband walks with me to the bathroom and I go in and change. I have the plastic bag that my skirt came in when I bought it that I could’ve wrapped my underwear and leggings in. However, it was very early in the day and I didn’t want to be caring them in my small backpack all day. I made the decision to toss the underwear and leggings, although they were very comfortable leggings. I come out and my husband said “The skirt looks nice, do you feel better?” And I said “Yes, I feel so much better.”
We continue on our day and eventually my husband asked, “So do you have your pants in your bag?” and I said “Oh no honey, I threw those away. There was no saving them.” and we had a good laugh. After I changed, his Parents put two into together and realize what it happened, we continued to have a great day at the park, and a great dinner that night. We all now laugh about this story together.
I have no one to tell but I bought my bf's engagement ring today!!!
I'm very happy and very excited. This morning I bought my boyfriend's engagement ring!!!! We have been talking about getting engaged soon and I know he's going to propose soon so I bought his ring today. He is going to be a fiance too so he is also going to need a ring. I want it ready so he doesn't have to wait. He's a nerd so it's based on an object from his favorite nerd show, I know he's going to love it. I have no one to tell, who won't tell him, so I'm telling Reddit.
My 7 year old son brings me the notes I write him, to save them :)
He says he wants to keep them forever and read them when he’s older. He carries them out in his hand everyday and hands them to me as soon as he gets in the car. It made me smile.
nya my friend made me look like a cat today at school! I feel so kawaiii!!
My friend put cat makeup on me so I took a picture! (I'm not gay tho if anyone's asking, also someone help me with my name, my friend made it and won't change it)
Smiling because I found a really cute bookshop AND a place to get carrot cake!!
My boyfriend’s response to me showing him my favorite dress
We haven’t been together for very long, but he’s absolutely amazing. He actually loves clothes shopping with me, so hopefully I can get that dress in red sometime with him☺️
my terminally ill granddad told me he is proud of me :)
i was at my lowest, full of regret and feeling behind in life. started tearing up after hear him say that to my mom while the phone was in the speaker.
My bf got me a cake to celebrate my 10 year of being on this app
I’ve had a great tropical growing season! 🤩
It’s time to take all 7 of my tropicals inside (not all pictured) for my zone, but I really branched 😏 out this year and gave real, true plant care a try. 🪴 And I am so surprised, and pleased! 😃
As long as I can get them through winter… eek! Just wanted to share. Everyone have a great day 🥲
Today is my birthday! Can I get some birthday wishes?!
Today is my birthday. I moved to a new state so I have no friends or family to celebrate with this year. I would love some birthday wishes today💕
I'm finally getting romantically involved with my crush!
I've meet this girl the past 8 months ago at my job, she's gorgeous and I have a huge crush on her. We are hanging out and having dates. Today I was making out with her, I never did that before. I am so happy, I couldn't tell my parents and I really had the urge to tell someone, so here I am.
It's the first time in my life I grew a plant from zero and kept it alive long enough for it to grow! 🥹
Sometimes when people support a small artist, that artist can buy new sneakers that don’t hurt her feet for her day jobs 🥹❤️
The cashier remembered my tiny request from months ago
A few months ago I stopped at the same little grocery store after work and bought a few things. The cashier noticed I was buying the same tea I always get and mentioned that they had a cheaper version of it that was pretty good.
I tried it and actually liked it more than the one I had been buying.
I completely forgot about that conversation until yesterday when I went back to the store. I put the tea on the counter and the cashier smiled and said You switched to that one.
It was such a small thing, but I honestly did not expect them to remember me or something that random from months ago.
I walked out of the store smiling like an idiot. Sometimes it is the smallest moments that make an ordinary day feel a little more special.
What. A. Weekend. The good times have absolutely rolled. Verge of tears here on my couch from already looking back.
As I said, I’m sitting here on my couch on this concluding evening to the past weekend so extremely content.
It was my small towns yearly fair this weekend and I really made the most of it. The feeling that this time of year brings me is immaculate; the fair, people, events, music, and weather made it infinitely better.
Started the weekend with going to the restaurant I used to work at, and then the fair with friends, where I got those risky pictures on the “Freakout” ride. Had a great time of course. Then I ended up staying over at my friends ritzy house, woke up, got some breakfast, went to Petco to debate getting a kitten for an hour, then spent two hours perusing a HUGE antique store, got me a bunch of neat stuff.
After that outing me and the homie went back to my house and did absolutely nothing for a few hours, followed by returning to the fair and meeting up with another friend who I haven’t seen in forever since they moved out of state, alongside her fiancé and friend. Met up with family and saw a bunch of people we knew, got some greaaaaat food truck grub, then watched the fireworks show with everyone.
The fireworks ended and our little group took a stroll around the carnival ride area, sharing laughs the whole time. Ended up at a local bar playing darts for a bit (I lost every game) then dropped off a now less than stranger who tagged along with me and the homie instead of going back with my other reunion buddy.
Wrapping up the night, we went back to stay at my friends house, wound down at 2am and continued to sleep until 10am. Decided to go to my friends Aunts pool that day and met up with, you guessed it, even more friends and family, it rained for a little while, but then it cleared up! We all chilled out there for a while and then dispersed back to our homes, leading me to right now.
I have been struggling with heaps of stress from work and personal issues recently and these past few days have been an amazing escape, and reset.
The whole thing felt like a “BETWEEN FRIENDS” music video, which I must have manifested since I’ve been listening to them a ton recently. Really good stuff.
All of the laughs, friends, love, romance, music, locations, and events of this weekend have been such a gift, that could be made better by NOTHING except for perhaps a time machine. Given the cosmic opportunity, I would not trade the time I have recently spent for anything material. Wealth is in the mind not the pocket, and these experiences have made me realize: Oh, what an affluent man I am. 🫠
If you’ve read this in its entirety, I hope this tale finds you well!! And I hope you find bounty in your world as well!
Edit/minigame - Take a shot for every time I said “weekend” 😆 So happy that I’ve transferred my joy to you lot❣️
5 years clean of SH today. Took 1,825 days but I did it. I made it out of the immense darkness, sadness and loneliness. I am free.
Above are the cake candles I use every year to celebrate.
