What's your dream job?
Owning my own restaurant after amazing tutelage from great chefs around the country… Ultimately though, teaching. A cook knows how, but a chef knows why.

One bad apple spoils the whole bunch.
So, I deleted my last post.  Once again, I assumed.  I might have been right, but then again I might have been wrong.  I don’t know.  I don’t want to track it down to find out, but I don’t want to be known as an idiot because I don’t know my facts.

As children, the closest that we got to money was when we played monopoly, or in my case, when my dad gave me 20 pesos to buy a bottle of coke from the Sari-Sari store (which is like a hole in the wall grocery store type of deal). Heading out to extern, I thought that getting paid eleven dollars per hour was a sexy deal.  Which, yes it is, but at the end...

30 Day Challenge, Day 25
Who fascinates you? People who fascinate me are the ones that are successful in life, because I’m pretty sure that they had to go through a lot of crap to get there.  I’m just interested as to how they got through those things.

Tennis Tournament Update
Never again should I get jacked up on coffee because all I seriously kept thinking about was my loss and wanting to play again…  But yeah.  Since my match has been moved (players coordinate when they play), I’m hitting the park tomorrow.  I’m excited, but I’m not coffee jacked up excited.
