It's amazing how fast you can go from bored off your ass to busy as f...everything


I'm trying to at least keep my titles PG.

Goal #2&3 - CHECK!! Holy shit! You are now reading the ramblings of the Assistant Pastry Chef at UGO cafe in Downtown Culver City. Oh my god it's wonderful. It's 6-2 most mornings, so I'm up around the time I used to go to sleep, but it is totally, completely, undoubtedly worth it. I don't even feel tired when I leave!

(By the way, #1 = going to culinary school, #2 = job in kitchen doing anything, #3 = job in kitchen doing pastry stuff. I don't know the order of my next goals, but I do know they include going to Europe to learn more about all the techniques and everything there, opening my own place somewhere, and having enough money to pay off my school debts. And starting a family. And being the most kick-ass grandma ever. But those are in a while.)

I'm picking up Spanish at an alarming rate now, it's amazing how well the immersion technique works.

Next step = Moving into an amazing apartment! Then finding a serving job for nights near Culver City/West LA so I can get the hell out of debt and start enjoying life! I really like Crocodile Cafe because of the people, but hostessing really isnt too cool.

For the love of GOD, I will never, EVER take a job as a hostess again.
