a little thing called procrastination..

Yay! It is already tuesday and tomorrow I get to go home for Thanksgiving :) So today class was slightly frustrating because my partner didn't show up and I was left alone on oven team (which is the worst station to run alone) I had some help from the chef and from a student worker that came to help. Overall it wasn't a bad day though, its just very difficult working in this group sometimes because I feel like they are less motivated and don't have strong teamwork skills. I generally get along with all my classmates, just wish that some were more professional in the bakeshops. Its very hard to believe my old group is graduating in less than two weeks! I miss working with all of them, however still get to see most of them frequently. This is my last weekend with two of my best friends here at CIA. They are coming home with me for thanksgiving because they are from further away. Senique is from the Virgin Islands, and Hope is from Detroit, Michigan. I am excited for them to meet my family and see my hometown again! 

On a positive note we were able to finish class early and leave around 12 instead of 1:30. Chef was also not there today so we took a 20 minute lunch break and didn't have lecture either. No nap time for today because I have my costing practical at 3:00. I studied a fair amount and reviewed the material I learned about 12 weeks ago and feel pretty confident going into this test. I also took it upon myself to shower and do my hair so I can wear business casual instead of my whites (which are covered in flour from baking today). Its a personal preference but I feel more comfortable and confident taking a test or doing a presentation when I feel good about myself or as I like to say "everything seems better when you feel cute" :) Well thats all for today cant wait to see most of you very soon! love you all <3
