ready for anything
I'm about to begin phase 2 of my second pastry school. The journal definitely lapsed since my last post was on the second day of my first school. I'm glad in a way that I skipped last phase. It wouldn't have sounded very nice, even though -ironically- it was much better than anything yet. But I'm leaving that mentality! Whatever calibre of whatever I am faced with, I must retain my focus and struggle on down my own personal path to get better at this stuff, i.e. pastry. This phase will be positive. It's a new year and I my resolutions for it will go hand in hand with how I will spend the rest of my life. Resolution One, however theoretical, I will both look at the project right in front of me with due reverence as a part of a wider world, to which, secondly, I will become expert. Two, I will journal every day. Even though I am glad that you (me) has been spared looking back on some shitty sttitudes about situations that made me miserable only because I was feeling trapped, I still look back to college and know that all my recording made it a better time. If only to know the sound of my own voice. Even now, when I haven't written for ages, words come faster than I would have thought I could think them. I must not turn my back on words now. They weren't a career or a mode of making colleagues, friends or lovers; but they are a part of me that is pouring out in a pretty, quiet swoosh. Welcome back, my friends. Several mundane articles that fall under three; avoid meat as much as I can so I will eat more vegetables, have everything ready at night before I go to sleep, get 6 hours of sleep a night, work out.
Class starts tomorrow and, damnit, it will be jolly!
