i wake up every morning knowing i'm not doing what i'm supposed to be doing. i'm not quite sure what my purpose is but i know it's not this. everyday at work something goes wrong. everyday i'm made to feel like it's my fault. everyday i work so hard knowing i will never get ahead. the job is set up to keep me in a hamster wheel, never moving forward. i don't know how much longer i can take it. it's almost as depressing as my job search. that hamster wheel isn't even moving. sometimes i wish someone would just tell me what to do. tell me what to do and i will do it. none of my ideas are working. i want to take a cake decorating class. i want to learn to bake amazing desserts. i love baking. i love making things sweet and pretty and watching people eat them and close their eyes and smile. i don't want to take a photography class. i don't like real life. my mind remembers things so much prettier than pictures do. i want to write a bo
