my first post!

hello ! this is my 1st blog post here on lov3chlo, as you can see from the title lol. Because i've never done this before idk if it'll be good. we'll see!! hmmmmm i'll talk about the season summer cause why not!
i just LOVE summer actually. It's not my favorite season(that would be spring !), but it's a close second. thinking of summer i just feel happy. this is the time of year were i can finally focus on the things i actually want to do in life. Not just school work.
I love to look out the open window of a moving vehicle and feel the warm breeze, and being able to admire the nature all around me! It's a relief being able to see trees clothed in different shades of green instead of winter's naked ones.
Not to mention my love for summer themed things, like food, actvities, or media, such as music (i'm literally listening to summertime by the Sundays as I'm typing this lol)Or fashion. I'll take shorts and a tanktop anyday!!! I absolutely hate being bundled up. Jackets make me feel like i can't move a single limb in my body. I only wear them when i must.
Although sometimes i wonder if i over romantise summer. It's true there's all these lovely things like i just stated, but the heat can just be miserable!It's pretty hot here in the summertimes where i live. Extreme heat tends to make me short-tempered so i can imagine i'm not the funnest person to hang out with haha
. With all this time to myself, I ususally go on about all the things i want to do in the summer, but never end up doing them. This makes me feel a bit bad about myself. But I should change that this summer!
I've been talking about riding my bike again, as there's this nice trail near my house that's perfect for bike rides, and I think I'm gonna do it! I also told some of my friends i wanted to hangout with them... so i really need to plan that out too!
Something about me is that my whole life I've been in love with reading. That was until around 2 ish years go when i just stopped wanting to do so. Seeing yourself drift apart from something you love so much is really depressing and I've wanted to get back at it since! Getting involved with the library always seemed fun to me and i think that would help me read again. Although I should probably return my overdue books before going to get new ones....
My library had the whole Fruits Basket manga so i had spent last summer mainly reading that, and i was enjoying it quite a bit! (momiji is such a cutie patootie omg
) and than i just stopped after getting 21 volumes in... so i really need to finish that. plus i think it would be perfect to dip my feet in before commmiting to longer books again.
Anyways i've rambled a bit off subject but I think that's kinda the point! I had a lot of fun writing this, much more than i thought i would. I was worried i would struggle with coming up with what to say, but the words just seemed to type themselves! It was quite therapeutic actually lol. This is what i imagine journal writers feel like. I've always to be a journal gal, but it's just not for me! who needs a journal when you got a blog lol

my birthday!!!
06/30/26
hallo!!!! I learned how to use the css float property, so this blog post will be practicing with that 
Months ago I decided I wanted to make a strawberry shortcake for my next birthday. Usually I end up just having a store bought cake, but i think homemade makes the day feel so much more special! I would like to make a special cake for each of my birthdays. I'm already planning ahead hahaha maybe next year will be carrot cake mmmm that sounds yummy. Now I'm lowk hungry...
ANYWAYS...
We got all the ingredients and were ready to go!!! I had my mom help me cause I really don't know how to bake. I had originally wanted to make it myself COMPLETELY but I was having second thoughts.
We actually ended up making two cakes. The day before we made this strawberry cake, and it was really good! The problem was that it was falling apart
. So my mom found this second recipe. The only difference really was adding a 4th egg, but it's crazy the difference it made! The cake was so much sturdier and we were able to actually make it look really pretty while still being able to stand up straight. Also why did no one tell me homemade whip cream is so good??? I could live off that stuff.
VoilĂ ! This is her in all her glory. My aunt had proposed the idea of hosting a birthday dinner for me, which was really sweet!!! She made this vanilla ice cream to eat with the cake, and it was heavenly!!!
So yeah! That was my bday. I'm really happy with how the cake turned out, inside and outside.Thanks to my family for making this day really special. Love ya guys!!!
p.s i had meant to get this out earlier, my birthday was like 2 weeks ago, but oh well
love, chloe
