I'm Back in School!!! (Academy of Pastry Arts) "jumps in excitement!"


Sorry for abandoning you(my blog) for almost a month but..... I'm back in school!!!!!!!!!! after almost a little over a year putting my education to a halt, I've finally decided to do pastry as a profession! The working experience helped me a lot to understand the industry more and ensured my choice =). As some of you might not know that I've done an A-Levels pre-university course before this and has chose to do pastry even though I had to give up entering university and doing a "real" degree! Even in those college days, as I was drowned in assignments, books, tutorials, I always find the time to run into the library and look at all the wonderful pastry books that I could get my hands on! I borrowed most of them even though I barely had the time to actually read any of them =(. And mind you, you might think that I must be a slacker, non-studious type, but nooooooooooooooooo I did 4 subjects, including further mathematics! HAHahaha! imagine that! I did pretty well in my examinations too and could have went to any course I wanted and at any where I wanted, (not to boast winks hehe) but some how I found my way back to those sweet desserts that secretly brings me joy and to those around me =). So there begins my journey, from working in a regular bakery (meeting great people there, one of those unforgettable memories, learnt a lot!!!!) and to working for the most wonderful cake shop around! Delectable by SU! Having a great boss and meeting more nice people..I have to say everyone were very supporting of my choice and have brought me many guidance! THANK YOU! especially my family, my white mice and friends! =)


Anyway back to my new school =) academy! After considering many many schools I've nearly given up on doing it in Malaysia until I found them! I was quite spectacle at first because it was soooooooooo new. But yeah being new has it's benefit "winks!" Ever since I started, I've never had a single boring day! (ever since my white my said 'bye-bye' TT  I have a lot of spare time). But anyway, I really enjoy my time there and I most of the time I look forward going to school =), I guess my classmates thinks so too! (I think haha).Even though, I quote "lifeless" after joining the academy because we spent all our spare time hang out there, my classmates and I really enjoy being there!Plus my chefs are reallyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy nice, like super!, they really take time to explains things to us, which requires a lot of patience due to we were all 3 girls in the beginning and we tend to be more talkative. WE have MAJOR FUN together!  


Our first class picture! Batch 1/2010..I still remember when chef was asking us to write it on our files, we all had giggles! Well as time goes by more and more people are getting to know about the school, which is good =). But everyday going to the academy we learn more new things and discover new delicious sweets that we never knew existed. Of course our chefs wants us to have a good basic, so he makes us practice, practice and practice =)..right chefs? My two wonderful classmates also play very important role! we have become fast close friends and we do almost everything together =)..They bring me joy, smiles and of course 'entertainment'.Megan and Pei Minn! =)


I now have a few more classmates who are very fun people too! Shall introduce them in the next post =)..The pictures above are just a little preview of what we've actually made (out of the hundreds..a little exaggeration) hehe..more to come! so please do visit soon! I promise I will update more often since I have plenty of materials now...just need MORE time!!!
