The Adventures of Cake

I mean really? With the book shelves?

It’s like an alcove of happiness.

You want a whole row of individual seats? Fine, here you go. 

Or how about a whole window bed for those snugglers out there.

Curtains.. Guys this one has curtains.

Seriously? This is basically a glass cube of bliss.

 You can even get them with corners! Not enough corners? Okay.

Ba-BAM!! Corners for cocooning. 

There’s also the Roman-esque themed seat for the historians out there. 

 If you don’t want to snuggle up in blankets with hot cocoa in this then I don’t even know why you’re on this planet. I mean dat stonework. 

This one’s an entire rectangle. Just imagine all the cuddling that could happen in there. It’s practically a fortress.

This one’s fucking curved okay? it’s just chillin, up of the ground, and curved for your lounging convenience. 

I did a few displays for my new classroom this week and I wanted to make sure I put my favourite quote somewhere I could see it everyday so I’ve got it on my desk.

even the most upsetting and disappointing day was holy

even the most frustrating student is divine

1. “There’s a teenage girl living in my closet, covered in blood. She’s kinda shy, but I guess she’s okay for a ghost.”

2. “Don’t tell me how to live my life!” “You’re a ghost.”

3. “I wouldn’t do that. Ghosts hate McDonalds.”

4. “There’s a picture of me sleeping on my phone.” “So?” “I live alone…”

5. “What caused this?” “Two words. Zombie. Chipmunks.”

6. “Wait. So you’re telling me, that if you bite a zombie before it bites you, it’ll turn human again?”

7. “For the love of god, there aren’t any zombies, or aliens, in Area 51.”

8. “Stop reminding me that I’m dead! I know already!”

9. “You have something in your teeth. Why don’t you go look in the-“ “The what? The mirror? Sure, right after I eat this clove of garlic.”

10. “Put the damn crucifix down.”

11. “I might be flesh and blood, but I’m not human.”

12. “Did you see that?” “Um…” “The correct answer is no, no you didn’t. Walk faster.”

13. “Do you believe in monsters?” “No.”

“Good! Then you won’t mind checking in my closet. I think there’s someone in there.”

14. “I don’t feel sorry for you, that you’re immortal. You shouldn’t have gone and fallen in love with a human.”

15. “Hurry up! The sun/moon is almost out!”

16. “Wait! What are you doing?” “Heating up the potion.” “In the microwave??”

17. “Here in the forest, dark and deep, I offer you eternal sleep.” “You don’t have to ask me twice.”

18. “Look, I don’t care if you want to try and summon a demon. Just let me get a glass of wine first.”

19. “Sorry I’m late, I lost my leg.” “Again?”

20. “You’re a witch?” “What gave it away? The pointy hat or the broom?” “The smoking cauldron, actually. “Shit! It’s not supposed to do that!”

21. “A black cat just sat on my foot. Does that mean I’ve been blessed by the Halloween gods?”

22. “The werewolves are out in the woods again.” “Again? Didn’t we JUST have a full moon?”

23. “I’d hug you right now, but I’m covered in blood.”

24. “Are you okay?” “My closet is a gateway to a terrifying, secret carnival. Of course I’m not okay.”
