need to stay positive!

i have been lazing for this fall hols. except for tuesday evening spending a good 3hours learning new recipes. but i am fine as long as i am happy and napping thru the whole day. but today, early in the morning, i read a negative blog. so negative that i dun feel like going for classes anymore. i can understand the message and feel the unhappiness for the person who wrote it. nothing wrong with that but it affected my mood.

everytime i step into a school, esp when i am unfamiliar with anyone, i feel stressed. its always nice to be greeted by a smile but trust me, so far only Caneles made me feels really at home. Chef Pang, thou the Executive Pastry Chef of Les Amis Group, he is the nicest! no airs at all. at least he treat us in a comfortable manner. The other schools that i go too, it all depends on the chef. Chef Ho and Chef Nan are also nice people i learnt from. these are the chef that i took pics with! cos as i say they are nice to accomodate to simple requests and address all questions that need an answer. most chef will answer all questions but sometimes u feel that chef seems to be "surprised" with simple questions asked by students... most people who attend class either dun cook at all, thats why they are there to learn or like me i want to learn how to and most of all perfect my cooking or baking. most owners i have to say are very stern. i always look forward for class but somehow my mood is a little dampened by what i read today.

i will still be going for class. just need to stay positive and go do what i like and dun bother with what i read today. i need to keep learning and i enjoyed my classes so far. some classes will be the 1st and last time i will be doing that recipe but i am glad that at least i had a chance to do it, learn it or tasted it. POSITIVE! think the 2 chef that i am learning from for the first time look nice. stay POSITIVE! also attending 2 more chef nan's class. going to do some packing of my many recipe books i have. think its time i experiment some of the recipes on my own.

but its hard to stay positive about the fact that hols is ending soon. will be back to school on monday. things are going to change... i hope i can deal with it. i need to stay POSITIVE!!!
