Around last Friday, an old friend of mine from high school (Mike) ask me to volunteer at my local community center for this program called "Opportunity Knocks." Opportunity Knocks is a program where they give kids with disabilities a chance to do some cool things like Archery, woodworking, cooking etc. When they I came into the community center, it was there last day of the baking class and I was the special volunteer guest for the day. Everyone was very impressed with my equipment and how I know so much; and I also got a chance to have great helpers from the class for making such great treats for the organizations first anniversary from when they started. In fact, they were so impressed with today, they gave me an application to see if I can volunteer for demonstration's how to cook and other set's of skills. I'm still thinking if I should do it, but I think it would be good experience for if I want to be a cooking teacher.
I also got some information about an internship at this hotel. I'm still trying to get my introduction e-mail edited and check for grammar. I think I got the right "gusto" to get going and I also heard that the best place to start a career in the hospitality industry is at a hotel business because hotels feature everything from the front desk, to the restaurant, to the room service and beyond.
Today, I took my grandmother out to lunch at the dinning room at the college and she loves it. I also saw some of my friends from the other classes and Chef Dorosess from yesterdays class. I also tried some of the Gumbo I made from yesterday and it was simply amazing. It felt a little weird at first eating at the place were I work but I felt just like the everyone else, happy and full.
For now, I bid you a-do because I have my next class soon. Keep sending in the comments and be marry.
