I swear...my chef hates me!

OMG...my practical exams are up next week and the recipe for the exam is gonna be announced tomorrow. I'm so fucking nervous. I hope it's not that chicken dish where I gotta cut the chicken into 8 pieces...coz honestly, I have no idea how. I'm gonna have to cook 2 dishes for my exams...1 entree and 1 main. I just pray that the main is gonna be something like Braised lamb shanks or Poached ocean trout...just as long as it's not chicken! Oh God...you gotta help me this time.

Anyway, I swear...my practical chef hates me. She's a Philippino lady and she likes to pick on me. And it's not like I'm doing anything wrong or what. Like today, she busted me for taking too many containers to my workstation. I was like...I need it woman. I know how many containers I need and what the fuck...it's just containers!! Why the hell does she care? Another incident today...I was looking for strings to tie up my fillet steak..and it's usually placed on the chef's table in front of the kitchen. And since I didn't see it there, I asked her where it was. And then she raised her voice and said, "Look...there's so many strings there. Open your eyes!", as she pointed towards a little compartment next to the whiteboard. Then I was like...what the fuck woman...what's the strings doing next to the whiteboard? It's supposed to be on the table..or anywhere else that is visible to everyone! I mean...dude...she could've just told me in a nice tone that the strings are right there. She didn't have to give me the third degree. She is such a bitch.

That's the reason why I hate Tuesdays the most. Coz first, I have a shit Demo chef, in which I think she revealed her real sexuality by accident in class today. She said, "My partner's husband was bla bla bla...." So by partner's husband, I think her partner should be a woman? So she's a lesbo. Eugghhh...I hate lesbians. Can't stand them...never wanna be around them. I hate gays too...especially the gurl gays aka the fish. They are so fuckin' annoying...and they're total bitches. They're even bitchier than gurls. The funniest thing was...nobody actually realized that she said that....it's either that or they didn't understand her. Hahaha!! Coz my course is full of Asians who can't understand English very well.

And another reason I hate Tuesdays is because of this practical chef that always picks on me for no reason. I don't mind if she kicks my ass for something that I did wrong...but she normally picks on me for no reason. I'm glad that the semester is ending soon. Coz come next semester, I'm probably not gonna have her as my practical chef no more. But if I do, it sure is gonna be a test of my patience. I just gotta learn how not to lose my temper if she keeps getting on my nerves. I'm not exactly a very patient person...or a person who can take up constant ass-kicking. I normally burst after it reaches the limit...and when it does, it's like a volcano eruption that can be difficult to put out.

As for my head chef, Steve, I love him so much! He's the best chef in the world. In my opinion, I think he's better than Gordon Ramsay....oh well, in some ways. He's very strict...but he's reasonable you know. As long as you follow his set of rules, you're fine. And he's always happy to answer our questions, no matter how stupid it is. His demos are always a thrill...very insightful and interesting. You just can't fall asleep in his class, no matter how tired you are. His voice just keeps me awake and his teaching style motivates me to learn. Basically, he's awesome!

Well, he kinda likes to pick on me too...but in a nice way u know. Like during the beginning of the semester, someone asked about what's the difference between calamari and squid. Then he asked me and this dude to stand up for some role playing. He picked me as calamari and the other dude as squid and we had to act like whatever we were. And it was hilarious u know. So from then on, ppl call me Miss Calamari. It was really embarassing, especially during the first couple of weeks. And then there was another time when he picked me again for his role playing. This time, he wanted to explain why goats produce less milk than a cow. So there he goes...he picked me again for his li'l role play. I was the goat...and he picked this huge massive guy to act as the cow. And he said, "Do you see the difference between these two? Not the gender. The size!!!" Everyone was laughing their asses off...even I was laughin' my ass off...but at the same time I was embarrassed to death. Then he said, "So obviously the cow is gonna produce more milk than the goat because the cow is bigger than a goat." And from then on, I became "The Goat"! Random ppl start calling me "Goat", even if I don't know who they are. Way to go to be popular....in a really stupid way.

And then yesterday, Chef Steve picked on me once again in his li'l animal kingdom role plays. We cooked Venison yesterday... and we used the tenderloin part. So some dude asked where the tenderloins are...and Chef Steve was like..."Come come you...stand up!!" He pulled my hand while I resisted. The whole class was laughin' already. And then he pointed at me and said, "Okay...this is Bambi here!" At first, only a few ppl got it, coz u know, freakin' asians don't watch Bambi. Then after some explanation on what it is, they finally got it and laughed. And then he said, "The tenderloin is this part here", while pointing to my back muscles. It was hilarious...I was really laughin' my ass off coz it was so freakin' embarrassing! I mean...wtf...3 times in a row he made me role play an animal. What...he sees me as food or sumthing? And now...my permanent nick name is Bambi! The funniest thing was...there's this Korean guy who never knew what my name was, even though we're pretty chatty with each other. He kept calling me Bambi...and at one stage, he came and ask me..."Actually, what's your name? I never knew it!" I just burst out laughing after that.

I'm glad to finally get some laughs in school...as compared to the first couple of weeks where everyone was so uptight and serious. Even I'm starting to chill a little and let out my true colors. I'm referring to my craziness. And I'm really starting to get the hang of it. I remember when I first started, I was a complete klutz and I was as slow as a snail. But now, I'm really confident at what I'm doing and I'm not the last one no more. In fact, I'm one of the first ones now to finish my dishes. I can't believe I've improved so much. I guess hard work and determination pays well.

Alright, I gtg now. I'm gonna post up another one tomorrow and I'm gonna reveal the exam dishes I gotta make. Have fun guys! Catch you later.
