What I have been doing.....


Past 20 days from last post, I've been really busy, busy for sure since I am actually at the college to study seriously. I started with A block which is for fundamental study of mathematics and writing. I was satisfied to study these and got good grad from both subjects. Now, B block has begun, and I was ready for it since B block is the actual beginning of the culinary study. I just had the first day of B block. After all the schedule of today's classes,I am thinking of past three weeks of my life. I mean my journal of last three weeks. It was hectic schedule. I had to wake up at 7 a.m in order to do some exercises and be ready for the morning class, which was writing. From 8 in the morning to 11:30 was the writing fundamental class, and from 12:45 to 3 p.m was the math fundamental class. Because I always had so much homework and assignments to do, I usually couldn't find my personal time, such as writing on my blog or photographing. I thought that I really had to build strong fundamental knowledge and the subjects were right there to help me, so I tried to focus on what I had to do. As a result, I got A from the math class but B from writing. Grad B from writing was totally disappointment. I do love writing; just like I love to write something on my blog, yet I did better job at math although math wasn't my favorite class. Since the math class was related with culinary world, I could do better because I've done similar things many times in the field. However, writing was pretty much new thing that has been developed inside of me. I did like to write when I was at high school. I even wrote some poems and short stories in Korean. I now stopped speaking Korean so that I wouldn't have any trouble with communicating with other chefs. It just my thing. I believe that if I want to learn new language, I should think, speak and everything in that new language. Anyhow, I'd better working on better writing skill; otherwise, i might not be able to survive in this academic society.
Okay, that was all about my three weeks on the campus. Every weekend, I work at Veritas. I couldn't just back and forth from the school to the restaurant every Saturday and Sunday, so I decided to ask some friends to stay over the Saturday night. I guessed that I could spend some time with friends and save some time and money as well. What I called win-win plan. The reason why is that I could keep up the good relationship with all the friends and, at the same time, I won't be late at the work. As matter of the fact, from the city to the school by train is even more expensive than Metro ride and I would be too tired from train ride back and forth as I believe.

The plan has been doing well. I have stayed a few different my friends' places and had good time with them. The work is usually finish by 11 and can get my friend's place at midnight, but they really welcomed me. The people in that pictures are the people who I really want to thank for everything. They were and are great people. I often have good fortune to have good people around so, luckily, I've never been the dark side of the world.

From the picture, anyone can recognize that what I have been doing so enjoy the picture and have a wonderful day
