My own word?? Hmmm...maybe not just yet, but I know
"BOOYAH!" is one close to my heart, and one of my VERY own
would be "this dish is the shizzlnizzle-bam-biznitch"...maybe not.

Well folks...this is it, I'm all ready to go, and just about to head out...I'll come back in when I come home, and tell you all about my wonderful new weapons, I mean "the tools of my trade"
;)

have fun ... i think it'll be a blast ..

So yeah, it's a lil' bit past 5am here, today is the day I'll be officially enrolling and collecting my equipment for my studies.
The course itself will start within a week, although I wish it was today...I'm feeling pretty nervous for some reason, but yknow, I think it's just because everything is finally becoming a reality, it's almost tangible.
So yeah, I'll be heading off in a while, just thought I'd keep you all
updated, and, I guess I'll cya when I get back...and rather than a cooking enthusiast, I'll be a chef in training.:D

Cya guys...

Goo dluck buddy :)

Looks liek this is a big changing time fo rus both :)

Well...the enrollment went pretty smoothly.
I don't have my equipment yet (dammit), but I'll tel you all about it ASAP.
Seems like it may not be quite 5 years...I was invited to take on a slightly more advanced course today, I mean it still starts at a basic level, which is good, and covers everything the more basic courses do, but more.
It's Certificate 4 in Hospitality and Catering Ops + Cert 3 in commercial cookery, combined.
Takes a year and a half, but at that point I'll be qualified as a catering supervisor/manager, and cook.
Not saying I'm going to stop there, just that it's a pretty sweet deal for a year and a half.
Another good thing is that through industry associations, finding a job through the college is never gonna be a problem.

Here's a basic course outline, module by module:
*Organising and Preparing food
*Clean and maintain kitchen premesis
*Present Food
*Receive and Store kitchen supplies
*Use basic methods in cookery
*Prepare appetisers and salads
*Prepare, cook and serve food
*Control and order stock
*Package and prepare food
*Food transport and storage
*Catering control principles
*Catering planning and control
*Nutrition applications in food services
*Catering quality control
*Monitoring catering revenue and costs
*Planning nutrition needs
*Hospitality colleagues and customers
*Hospitality industry
*Coach job skills
*Interpret financial information
*Management fundamentals
*Lead and manage people
*Monitor workplace operations
*Learner orientation/recognition
*Workplace Hygeine
*Hospitality products and services
*Implement food hygeine procedures
*Food safety programs
*Hospitality conflict resolution
*Hospitality health, safety and security

I have three electives, for those I've chosen:
*Prepare hot and cold desserts
*Menu planning and design
*Responsible service of alcohol.

So yeah...there's elements here that'll definately work for my teaching thang, and eventual business ownership (my own pizza joint....one day....), not to mention a WHOLE buncha good cooking stuff.
Oh, and I've got 2 weeks to wait 'til everything kicks off.
ok....uh....tired now.
