Gingerbread House Making: My Over Analysis and Over Critical Review

*Inhale*
*Exhale*

Ok so in the past two days I have made a total of five gingerbread houses. Great, right? No! It was not great at all!! If I had to describe the experience in one photo it would be this:


Yes, it was that bad.

(It really wasn't but shhhhh...)

I decided the best way to review each gingerbread house would be to classify them into their own categories. Each gingerbread house has a description and title specific to that gingerbread house. Let's get started!

GBH (gingerbread house abbreviation newly created by yours truly) #1:


Description: Icing job looks as messy as my room and the one side (not shown) is caving in like the present my dad sat on. Not the best but certainly not the worst.

Title: "An embodiment of deciding not to study for a test till the day of said test but still getting a B on it"


GBH #2:

Description: The sole survivor of an elite, advanced species. Kind of like Jenna Bargfrede except it isn't good at everything. Also the GBH can probably dance better than Jenna (you're the best at everything but dancing, Jenna. Sorry, it's the truth.). Competitively it scores ok.

Title: "Step aside, Donatello. There's a new sculptor in town."


GBH #3:
 
Description: Bad. Poorly constructed. Don't look at the back. I didn't make this. Can we submit work anonymously? Epitome of "oof". The roof is the worst part but I took intro to photography so I was able to manipulate it to look ok. (I actually also took intro to sculpture so that means nothing.) Don't make any sudden movements or it might fall over. It went from bad to worse as I constructed it. A mistake.

Title: "I'll pray at Mass on Christmas Eve to make up for this sin."


GBH #4:

Description: This does not look like the picture at all. No, it is not entirely my fault (it totally is). The front and back both are leaning forward so they look like they're trying to do that one move from Michael Jackson's Smooth Criminal MV where he leaned forward. 

Title: "Considering all the gaps between the pieces of the roof, when it rains it pours."


GBH #5:

Description: Just because it was made through 3D printing does not mean it is not a GBH. Fun fact, I actually had to make this three different times so I guess I really made seven GBHes. It looked beautiful in Fusion but Fusion is expectations and the actual print is reality (a reality that I am not willing to accept). Disappointing to say the least.

Title: "It's like when you get one of those $25-$500 gift cards and you think you scored big bucks but your parents are cheap so it's only worth $25."

(Wow, I sound like a spoiled brat. Sorry!)


To synopsize (yes I just made that word up), don't buy GBH unless you are willing to suffer or are, you know, good at stuff. Oh, and pick up the GBH from the store yourself otherwise it might get broken when being delivered.

Happy Holidays everyone! I hope we all have an amazing break!
