I have to read 60 pages on supervision and management and it sounds utterly boring, so thus, I turn to you trusty livejournal. I barely ever write in this thing anymore. Mainly because i dont think any of you wouldbe interested in my life, or maybe because i'm really happy and everytime i go to write something down i feel like I am bragging??
I got a fish tank, but it only has one guppy in it. Tomorrow I will change that! well I shouldnt say "I" got the fish tank because technically it is Jeff's. But, I like it a lot.
School has been ho hum lately. I love the people in my classes- if it werent for them I would probably have gone insane by now. But, since they are there to brighten my day and give me people to shit talk to and about, life is fun. I'm in this class that is every day from 930-230 and we basically run a really nice cafe-bistro restuarant and also a semi-good cafe/coffee shop restaurant. Its fun, but its also a lot of work. We each work a station for four days, and then move to the next one, rotating all the way through the semester. I am now working the "grill" which basically means that I make the burgers, chicken sandwiches, and steaks when the orders come in. I made like...40 today. It was so busy....but at the same time I like getting the experience of working in a real environment.
Reading everyone's livejournals at times makes me want to educate myself more. I'm so involved and wrapped up in culinary school that I barely have time/ energy/ motivation to learn about things like history, or pay attention to current world goings-on. I really want to change that, but I never get past the actual thought of wanting to change it and move on to the changing part. Maybe I should.
I'm going to start going to the gym 3-4 times per week. I really need to get healthier and lose some weight. I'm in this health class now, and the teacher is really good and I like her a lot. But she makes me worry a lot about the risk of heart disease and diabetes. So I'm going to start cleaning up what I chose to eat, and excercise more. I hope to lose 20 lbs this semester, or atleast by july.
Tomorrow I have to be at school for 15 hours and that really sucks. But I get to have 7 of my catering hours gone, which is over a quarter of what I need for the semester. I also didnt get my catering hors first semester, so hopefully I will be able to get double what I need for this semester to cover it. I hate having to worry about catering. It blows. Its going to suck tomorrow, but I'm going to rely on advil and coffee to make it through. I will be glad once thats over!!
I really want to get a dog in a year or a few years. I dont have the time for it now, but i think I wil once I"m out of school. And I think i would be a good dog owner. I love them so much..I want three actually. I want a weiner dog, an english bulldog and a french bulldog. and i think jeff wants a lab. So we better get a big yard.
I'm going to try to make more effort towards getting to know people at school more, and making friends. I've been putting it off because i love spending time with jeff. But i really feel like its time for me to have more friends, and to hang out with them outside of school...it just seems so much healthier. I miss being social.
