Time flies when you are

in culinary school.

I cannot believe the first quarter ends next week. One week from today is our culinary skills practical (aka final exam.) Basically, we have to cut up a bunch of shit and cook it. This first quarter has been an absolutely amazing experience. Sometimes I have doubts that this is the right path for me, but for some reason, every morning, I drag my ass out of bed and go to school. I actually think I might be sort of good at this cooking thing. The instructor seems to like my food, so that is a good sign. School has never ever come so easy to me. Perhaps, I have found my niche in this world. As I write this it appears that I will end the quarter with a 4.0. I hope I can keep that G.P.A. going. I promise next quarter I will bring my camera and start posting pictures of the food we make.
