First day of classes

Ahhhh Its ssoooooooo nice to be back. I just feel refreshed and like a whole new person. I am dealing with all new people in my group ( not those people who hated me from my old group) and I am reconnecting with old friends. Being away for 7 months was wayyyy to long. I had orientation the first two days, which I was done with by 10:30 in the morning both days....yay for free time.
I am officially the secretary of Gourmet Society, the club I have been a part of since i got here last year. But i was never given a title or responsibilties....bummer. Its ironic, because a secretary knows dates and times of everything and anything everywhere and anywhere....last year, I didn't know what the heck was going on, and now im the person in charge of that. Im excited. I like having a title and I might even get business cards with my name on them, sweeeeeeeet. Im glad I have found Gourmet Society as my other thing to keep me busy on campus. I would join other clubs, but I gotta see how involved being Secretary gets me first. I am just trying to make the best of this year.

Back to CIA!!

I start back at CIA on Tuesday!! I move in on Monday, but today is Saturday and I am so anxious!! My room is a mess, and my brother's room, since I am using his room as my staging room for everything I am packing. I am trying to go through every item i am bringing to make sure I do not over pack, cuz I definitely did that last year! As long as it all fits in my car, im in good shape!
When I get back to school, I will be taking classes for 6 weeks like I did back when I first started. They consist of Menu Planning, Costing, Intro to Management, Restaurant Law, and Nutrition (super psyched for the nutrition class!). Ill update once I am back!

The End Came So Soon

I have two days left working at the Mooring. Its bittersweet, that is what I have been telling people when they ask if I am happy to leave or not. I have made great friends and had lots of fun this summer, but I am too excited to get back to school, so my mind is other places right now. I am working hard still, dont get me wrong, but I just dont love being at The Mooring as much as I used to. People of course ask if I am returning next year, but I dont think I am. I tell them I may return in the future, but as of right now, Im not planning on going back next summer. I want to work for a bed and breakfast in another seasonal town, Nantucket or Cape Cod maybe? I guess we will see what happens. I really like the new menu items, however, that they have put on the menu for the Fall Menu. Its comfort food, which who doesnt love comfort food? I will have to come back sometime this winter to visit and to eat some of the food! Its been a great summer.

DESTINATION: CIA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
