Pregaming 101


It took so long for me to finally decide what makes me happy. Not what my mother or society wants for me, but what Maci Kay wants to wake up every morning and do. And I finally made the decision of Cooking School. I have always had a passion for cooking/baking and now its time I do something about it. God does not give you passions for you to do nothing with. If that was the case, we all would be a bunch of couch potatoes sitting around watching re runs of the office.

So, after getting financial aid done and being “packaged complete” I know can begin my journey as a baking and pastry student at Le Cordon Bleu. 

I had many moments when I thought, why am I doing this? Is this what I really want? Will people actually like my food? and my answer to those are that, I really do not care. I know that this is what I want to and I am happy. 

I went to uniform fitting with not knowing a single sole. I walked out knowing at least 1 lady possibly in my class. That was helpful. I went to orientation and met some odd people, some people who already think they are the best (i named her dill hole) and others who were just plain creepy. But somehow I think we all fit together like a puzzle. 

I have spent so much money before hand. I need a credit card just for all the extras I had to buy. Like good white shirts, good pens and paper. A super cute legal pad with a chevron and a letter M on it. (ok, that was not needed, but hey, I like color..) Oh and gas. I am not about that life. Spending 50 bucks a week (or a day haha) on gas. Hello Dart! we will become best friends. 

Tomorrow I begin the rest of my life. After loads of laundry and homework and making a backpack (high school much?!) I think I am ready for this challenge.
Had to prepare a LOT but I think it will pay off :)
