This morning I finished four episodes of Hell's Kitchen Season 1 (yeah, I just got out of the cave) and two more tonight. It was exciting and thrilling to watch. I was revived of my old dream.
Once our GM asked me what would I be had I not pursued my current career. I said I might be doing documentaries; capturing interesting yet socially relevant stories. Either that or becoming a chef. (A combination of the two would be awesome!) Yes, I love to cook. It's my most favorite house chore. I don't mind spending hours in our hot, incomplete and tiny kitchen; preparing food is something I am most willing to do all day.
My knowledge in cooking is very limited. I get to pick a few tips from watching TV shows and by searching the internet but I want to learn more. I want to experience working in a restaurant kitchen: chopping meat on thick chop boards, baking new dishes I don't know, presenting food flawlessly on clean chinaware, wearing that white buttoned uniform while being formally taught by a well-experienced chef. But, frankly, I cannot afford to go to a culinary school. I once planned of joining a reality show though but, due to very limited time, I let it pass. Sayang. Maybe next time.
Now I am confused. I have already started a solid career but I realized my desire to cook dishes and make people happy through my cooking is still burning inside me. I hope that it will happen someday. Should opportunity present itself again I am not gonna let it pass. I will grab it, learn from it and improve myself through it.
I'm gonna have my own restaurant someday.
