24 Usable Hours

As you might know, I absolutely love baking.
Tuesday night was the final of this series of Great British Bake Off. I missed due to the fact that it was P's birthday night out (which was such a good night), but I managed to catch up with it yesterday morning.
I don't think the person who one should have done. Even though their performance was really good in the finial, their overall consistency throughout the whole competition was nothing compared to the other two finalists. However, it was a cracking final!
Anyway, after the show they released the application for next year.
I am going to apply.
I have so much that I have to make, well want to make to take pictures of and write about them, and even though there is no closing date as yet, I feel that it might come round quickly.
Therefore, I need to increase the amount of baking I do.
I am already baking once a week or so, which is good, but most of the time it is sticking to the things that I have done before. I need to start baking the unknown and more frequently.
The slight catch is that my days are already quite full, juggling university work, working at the Union, going to the gym, seeing friends, etc., is already a struggle as it is. Not that I don't love it though. Everyday has bought something new and exciting (that isn't even a lie!).
So it seems that I will need to sacrifice something, and the only conceivable option is to sacrifice some sleep. Who needs a lot of sleep anyway? There is far too much living to do anyways, and I'm definitely not giving up my social life or going to the gym.
So I have decided that because I like going the the gym in the mornings and I work best academically during the day, my baking will have to happen after that. But the evenings are very sociable for me (for example, I have a two friends coming round tonight, one at 6.30 and one at 8). So it looks like my baking is going to have to happen from about 9pm onwards. Maybe I should go and collaborate with the midnight bakery!
I'm intending to do something every day, but its the guys reading week is next week and 2 of them are going home, and I dont think the girls are going to eat that much! So most of it will probably go to waste unfortunately.
The week after that is my reading week, and I will be going on my mini 'holiday' (which is going to involve a lot of work on my dissertation), so I wont be able to do much baking, and therefore is cutting the time I have to bake!
OH well, I will do it all! I HAVE to do it all!!

On a different note though, Tuesday night was such a good night out. It was the night that I felt was the confirmation of my acceptance into my house. I know that I have been here a while now, but still, I now know that I have firm friends in all of them.
I think I'm actually going to miss them when they go home next week and I go down to Devon the week after.
However, it will mean that I might be able to get some uni work done.... Silver lining?
