Few weeks ago, I dropped out of college - I might just be known as the craziest student baker (I think I am.) I didn't mention it because I know it wasn't something to be proud of..
But that should be a little obvious. Any college students wouldn't be as free as me to be baking (almost) every day. They'd struggle to even do it once a week. LOL.
& On my last day of school, my civics tutor asked me what are my plans so I replied,
"I'm going to study pastry arts."
He gave a doubtful look and questioned "Have you thought about your future career?"
I said, "Yes. I'm going to be a chef", almost beaming with pride.
He ended off the conversation telling me "Well done".
There was no feelings of support, but I was not a bit discouraged. Perhaps chefs are really undervalued. But this is my dream! =)
My holidays brought me to my second pastry job at the National University of Singapore Society (NUSS) Guildhouse. It's like another exciting beginning, first day of work will start today and I'm really looking forward. It has a much bigger kitchen and a lot more chefs than the previous restaurant I worked in. The craziest thing is I'd be spending at least 5 hours of traveling time to and back from work. Yes, I thought there was something really wrong with my intelligence too LOL.
But I'm desperate to learn. I would say yes to any job that is willing to take me, which is nearly none. Because I not only lack skill and experience, I'll be leaving the country in less than 2 months! Who'd want me? I just have to be thankful that the NUSS Guildhouse's restaurant is giving me a chance ^^
