In less than a week, I will be flying back to Melbourne for what I desperately hope is my last year in Melbourne. At the moment, I am trying to get done everything I need to including my application to Kendall College. Yes, I have finally decided on my future culinary institute! Kendall College is located in Chicago, IL a.k.a the windy city… I’m not exactly sure how it’ll turn out but the college sounds pretty good, it has been acknowledged as one of the top 10 culinary institutes in America, and the admissions staff are nice. If I get in, and I think I will as I was told that I was reserved a placement, it’ll another 4 years of study, but I am very excited. At the moment however, I will need to work hard to get through my final year, and I am actually feeling really good about it. I have my own personal goals for this year which I hope I can maintain.

One of the requirements for the application to Kendall is to write a short essay, of which I chose to write about my experience in Melbourne. Initially I didn’t really know what to write at all but as I looked back on the past 3 years, I really have learnt a lot and have enjoyed myself so much, despite complaining about Melbourne being boring all the time. I am definitely glad that I ended up in Melbourne, and I definitely won’t change it for anything.

As for my future plans, I don’t know if culinary school will work out for me, although I am determined to make it work. I don’t know how good I will be at it but I am definitely always interest and curious to learn more. But it’s going to be awhile before that happens.
