I made Cake pops for entire class for Valentine's Day!!! (Gone really terribly bad...)

Last week, I wanted to make something special since I've been very happy and comfortable with my new classmates (I switched classes), so I wanted to show them how GRATEFUL I AM to be with them all !!! :D I asked someone in my bulletin about what to make. They mentioned cupcakes, but still, it's very difficult for me to make butter cream for cupcakes (That's a good idea still, I even have cupcake cups), so I decided to make cake pops! There's a request from one of the classmates that I talked with pretty often, she wanted Red Velvet flavor!! Sadly got got onto a car accident after leaving a party (I'm pretty sure that alcohol was included.), so I didn't make it.

Three days ago before my one holiday on Wednesday, I asked everyone in my class if they like desserts or not and went on to ask about what flavor of cake did they like. Some of them were excited to try, and there're 6 classmates that didn't like desserts and they're all boys, but most of them were skeptical. I had 5 flavors in mind which were Chocolate, Green tea, Thai tea, Lemon, and Milk.

Two days ago, I started baking a butter cake. I baked two medium of homemade cake fresh from the oven, my entire house smelled like butter! After baking huge bricks of hot cake, I had to grind the cakes with my bare hands while they're hot (Don't try at home). Luckily I got some butter cream from my auntie who is a baker (I LUV AUNTIE!!!!). I mixed the cream with grinded cake together, then turned them into a flower shape with a presser because I wanted them to look beautiful.

Yesterday I got home from school and started making fillings, because of the difficulties, I made only 4 flavors which were Dark Chocolate, Milk Chocolate, Milk, and Lemon. (The green tea powder I used was expired, so I had to throw it away.) I filled the cake pops with each fillings, decorated them, put them in the fridge, then I did my school work because TEACHERS FORGOT TO GIVE US WORK SO THEY GAVE MORE ON THE SECOND LAST DAY OF SCHOOL.

Finally, 14th Feb (Today). I slept for 4 hours, I didn't wash my face nor I brushed my teeth. I brought my cake pops to school with me. Today is a VERY VERY... exhausted  day. I had to take 3 exams, a presentation about politics was also very stressing. Until the last class of the day which was a free time class because the teacher already gave us all the work that we had to do, so I decided to give them my desserts. The popular group cheered and celebrate (I felt very confident), but most of the class were just "woo" very quietly then went on to play their phone, iPad, etc. My class has 38 or maybe 39 students, I made 50 pieces.... only les than 15 students took it. I'm not upset, but I feel disappointed. It's not like they need to know how much money I spent of them (I spent like 29.75$ on all the equipment), the cake turned salty too because of the butter I used for the cake. They told me they'd have them later, but they never did. 

What made it worse was probably the teacher that kept the class quiet for my other teacher. He told me "Don't forget to take it back. Nobody wants it, so you should just take it home."... guess there're more for me. I took some to my advisor teacher, when I was about to leave, he asked about my father, then the worst part... my brother (I used to tell him about my brother's abuse). I only told him few things and he's already terrified, imagine what would happen if I told him the whole story. He said that I deserved to live a new life, but it's not a good time right now (That line broke me so hard I cried right after leaving his office.) After that I went to continued doing my group project and got home. My father asked about the amount of cakes I brought back, but I didn't answer much.

Well... At least today's not so bad. Our science teacher gave us candies! I was forced to play a game and got challenged to hand a love note to a random person for a video prank, but I gave it to a senior instead and he was so happy! It's like I made his day. I also got heart stickers too! In my nation, it's traditional to stick heart stickers to friends on their student uniforms or even teachers (most people got like 9 or more stickers on their shirt). And I got 2 heart stickers and 1 red sticker!!This is the new record of how many stickers I got on Valentine's day. I usually got none, two years ago I got only 2. Now I got 3!!! And I've finally completed all my school work!! 

I CAN FINALLY GET ONLINE!!!! YAYAYAYYY

Still have finals exam next week, hope it turns out well!! I got to celebrate with a night ride with my father to pick my brother up. The best part is that I got to listen to No Money by Galantis while taking beautiful sight of night lights and the beautiful moon tonight!!!! My brother also bought me a white chocolate cookie with macadamia nuts! (This is my first time trying it and it's so good!)


Lesson learned I guess... never bake for your classmates again.

hmmm, it's definitely sweet that you put the effort in! I suppose not everyone felt like trying one, which is unfortunate. I'm sure some of them appreciated it though!!!
