Idea's

So this isn't going to be a long post. I have to go to school to drop off paperwork for my last week of my externship!!! meaning I will officially be done with school! I don't know if that's a full yay or nay. But we shall see, that's what I'm writing I have all of these idea's in my head and I'm just not sure which one to follow. First for me is work? I'm going to be honest that I am a little nervous about growing up and being an adult. Second it maybe going back to school to get my BA in journalism and hospitality and pastry?!?! I feel if I am in the back of the house it would be in pastry not that I don't like the savoy side I just love pastry. Then there is the fact that now that I'm home I want to leave asap! lol So we shall see the outcome of all this, but one thing I do know is me and my bestfriend Karl-lydie http://mskayelle.blogspot.com are going to start being a taster of all cupcakes in the Boston area. So starting, hopefully this week, we will be going to different cupcake shop  (I think this might include bakeries) tasting the different cupcakes of our choice and then I will be blogging about it, and taking picks! So get ready, cause I think it's going to get very sugary soon hahaha

I don't think that is a word but o.k.

btw: I really need to start writing more in my blog

Inspiration

Inspiration...such a universal word to so many things for different people. For me especially, being a child, sister, friend, student, soon to be chef,  soon to be baker, and  soon to be writer I'm inspired daily. But I think for me at this time in my life the thing that inspires me the most is doubt. When people don't believe in you, don't you get inspired to prove them wrong? to really show them hey I can do it and even more than that, I can do it and be successful. Unfortunately it's hard, you might be hurt that they have doubt in you especially if they are close to you, or you just might not be fully inspired to do it.

When I was in school I did a stage at Craige on Main, which is Tony Maw's restaurant in Cambridge (AMAZING FOOD). To be quiet honest I bombed I was so nervous, and felt as if I didn't really belong there since it was so high class, and really what did I truthfully know about fine dining except from school at the time. But after that whole fiasco it really made want to learn more about fine dining and even just allow myself to be put in these positions where it is hard for me to feel comfortable.By doing this little by little (and I do mean little by little, step by step) you can really get that courage, and inspiration that you need. So my next little step is to have an interview at Menton (Barbara Lynch's restaurant) and trust me this is FINE FINE dining, and maybe I get it maybe I don't but if I don't try how will I know?

My theory is stay as positive as you can, you have to be your own inspiration sometimes.
