Day one....lots of good stuff and one bed gone.....

Well day one of school went off without a hitch....except for me forgetting to bring anything to write with!! That aside, I met all the instructors and students and I am afraid to say that compared to my classmates I am oh so old! Oh well, that means that I won't be nursing a hangover every Monday morning! I found out that in the 4th semester we get to go somewhere really cool for 2 weeks!!! We fundraise all year so that all a student need bring is spending money! To give you an example of "really cool place" last years students went to Hong Kong!!!!! There is talk of Peru for the 2nd year students this year and maybe Paris (and I DO mean in France) for our trip next year!!!! I am SO pumped!!! The College also offers an apprenticeship program run at the same time as the Culinary Mgmt. course, it costs an extra $600 per semester and adds another 18 hours a week to the courseload but it also means that I could write the exam for my Chef's papers in about 6 months after graduating as opposed to 2 years or so......I think this could be worth it in the long run.

On another note, Soly's parents came this evening and picked up Ben's bed so they could bring it down to the States so he can sleep on it again.....they brought me veggies! :0) mmmmmmtomatoes, cukes, potatoes.......

anyways, my head is still spinning....
