Last two weeks at OJT.  I can't believe it's almost over.  I'm so used to the system that I felt I'm already employed here, just with no salary though. lol.

I will miss the new friends I made...

I will miss the dishes I learned to make...

Of all kitchen sections, I will miss most the Japanese...

Over all the experience at H Hotel is an extraordinary one.   I thank the school for trusting me enough to send me in this prestigious hotel.  Chef J gave me a grade that she said I very well deserve.  I was elated.  I knew I gave it my best and I got rewarded. I was smiling from ear to ear and happy with my added knowledge.  When I got home to my son, he refused to come near me.  I coaxed him to eating and sleeping with me but he wouldn’t budge.  He said flat in my face, “Ayoko sa yo Mama, palagi mo ko iwan, always wala ka.” I left H feeling a winner, I got home as a loser mom.  The price you pay for knowledge.  I hugged my son, said sorry, and promised that I’ll make it up to him.  If he only knew that I’m doing this all for him.  One thing priceless I gained from this training is that I realized my priorities in life.   It used to be Student, Mom, and Wife, now it’s Mom, Wife, and a Student.
