After moons and moons of procastination and hestitation, here, I've mustered the courage to create a brand new bloggie... to let out loud my thoughts, ramblings and whatsnot to a place where people, friends might stumble upon by chance... This bloggie will serve me as a reminder and source of reflection as I embark on this jouney in hope to discover my calling... my vocation...
What triggered the courage, you might wonder... well, was talking to my buddy, K, about perhaps taking up a diploma course in a culinary school... he was very encouraging and supportive, he feels that I am really cut out for this industry.
Well, it all started out with dad asking me this morning to look out for courses to take up for skills upgrading and applying for the SDF grants for up to 75% off the course fees... So there I looked at the courses offered at the ecitizen webbie... perhaps the wrong place to look at but nothing on there enticed me... till an idea came to search for culinary schools.
Told another buddy, A, about it... she commented that the course fees are usually very EX!! Which is true!! A dip course costs as much as a BA or BSc course... Of course we thought of a cheaper alternative which was to improve ties with a certain Chef friend of mine, in hope that he will groom me. HAHHAa wishful thinking on my part, perhaps...
But, while researching on the courses.... WAhla!! I learnt that they too have scholarships and grants!! :) That got me thinking and thinking... I mean K had a good point... I can come home and experiment and further discuss stuffs with mum while taking the course.. it will be excellent mother-daughter bonding!! :)
Then also Glen, my cousin who's finished with Shatec and I had a chat once... he would like to start up a cafe/bistro chill out place sometime in the near future... this will be an excellent collaboration!!
Well well... let's just see where this thoughts lead me to... Is this really my calling?? Let me consult the Almighty one...
Stay tuned... I shall update with more insights, thoughts, inspirations, etc as they come along the way of this journey in search of my calling, to whatever it may be...
