The reason I didn't write is because there haven't been many happenings. Classes are going pretty well. Everyday we're practising knife skills; usually we take one onion, slice 1 half and other one gets minced. Then we finally chopped some garlic and parsley and out of 1 potato we cut 2 different sizes of stripes and cubes. I kinda got over the onions, used to cry like a child...Everybody did, so it was fun!
The other day we made cream and pureed soups, yesterday was vegetable cooking day, and today we made cream mushroom soup and our own hollandaise sauce! I did a good job and so the rest of my group ;)
It also got very warm so I love sitting outside with Stacey during dinner time! :)) Oh yea, I got my social securuty number!! And I immediately went to the American Bounty restaurant, takled to Damir Juric and Stacey and I started working the next day! We are working Saturday's now as food runners! We basically deliver food to tables. It is very intense though! There are so many tables and you have to know what nuber is what table and also seats by numbers so you don't mix up plates..
Since it's Saturday, we earn $9 per hour+tips and 5 hrs of work so it was a pretty good job.
And one more thing...we got robbed back home in Split couple of days ago...Mum and dad are ok, they weren't in the house, and mostly everything is ok.
Dragi moji Hrvati, puno mi falite.
U školi je sve super, Culinary skills idu svojim tokom. Rezuckanje mi vec dobro ide, dosta sam novog usvojila. Danas su na meniju bile krem juha od gljiva, bešamel i Hollandaise umak (kojeg sam napravila sama!). Sve u svemu je super, iako nam je svima malo dosadilo...Jedva čekam kruh!!
E da, dobila sam NAPOKON social security number! Sada mogu radit, kupit mobitel...Već radim! Stacey i ja smo otišle u American Bounty restoran kod Damira Jurica i odmah nas je zaposlio. Tako da radimo subotom od 11 do 3 ipo! $9 po satu + napojnice :) Perfect! Inače, mi radimo kao Food runners - dostavljamo hranu na stolove. Nije to baš tako jednostavno; ima toliko stolova i sjedala i svi imaju brojeve tako da ih moraš sve znat kako nebi nešto pomiješao...
Ali sretna sam da radim. Tražim isto nekakav posao kroz tjedan....
I još nešto...Provalili su nam u kuću u subotu. Sva sreća da mama i tata nisu bili tu, tako da su oni ok i nema velike štete. Sada sam posebno aktivna u traženju stipendija!
Ne možete se nikako usporedit s Amerikacima :)
