February 6th 2007

HELLO~!!!!
I just came back from my school!! WOke up very early this morning at 5 AM to catch my school shuttle bus at 6.20
First day of class, chef Steve was just going through about basic hygiene, food science and knife skills.
I was so surprised the building at SOuth was a nice one. BUt, we have to study in a kitchen. It was just like you are attending food channel where you sit in front of the chef.
Today, we got our tool kits too and chef Steve was going through the purpose of the kits for. I cant believe for a luggage and a handbag, it all consisted the tools. BUt i love all the tools, though.
ANd the school provided free lucnch everyday too.We just have to give our ID to the canteen representative in order to get food.
I think the food was cooked by the students itself because i saw a lot of cakes, desserts.
One thing i dont like is I have to wear full uniform wherever i go. And the lining up as a line before entering the classroom to have chef Steve check our uniform one by one,too. It fet like i am a kindergarten student.

Chef Steve was pretty strict when he taught us basic hygiene. We have to wash our hands every half an hour and after that have to wear gloves. Im looking forward for the skills study. Tomorrow is just basically another hygiene lecture. We can have our skill study until thursday. CHef Steve said we will be taught how to use the knives, decorate cakes, melting chocolate!

Orientation yesterday was a long one but fun too. Cos they served all kind of food to desserts made from their students. I was so lucky i met with one international student too.!

OVERALL i luv the school! BUt it is so sad that the program is only going to be 8 months. How i wish it could be longer.
