Lord of the Flies
What are goals? Are they just plans that you make yourself for the future? Or are they a list of what you hope to accomplish in life? Well me personally, I believe my goals are challenges I set for myself to hopefully overcome throughout my life so that I can become something more. There is a lot of career options out there that where recommended to me but many different people. But ever since I was a little boy there was always one thing I wanted to be… a Chef. I love to cook, so it’s no surprise that when I got to high school I looked for different ways I can get into Culinary Arts, and be active so I can actually learn the fundamentals of it, instead of just cooking at my house. There is really no training I could take before I got to high school because simply I’m too young for them to even trust me with the equipment that is needed to perform the tasks. Even when I got up to high school the school still don’t trust freshman with that kind of responsibility until they are sophomores. So like I’ve been doing my whole life, I had to wait. But I did everything I could in the last year to make sure I was ready for the class next year. I mean I guess what I’m trying to say is I have always wanted to be a Chef my whole life. I also looked into one and only one other career besides culinary arts and that would have to be the Armed Forces. It’s something else that I haven’t wanted to be in the army since I was little but it’s something I thought about for my back up plan in case I don’t make it as a Culinarian. There is a lot of ways I can get to being a Chef in my life and for me personally I think I have found mine so that I can hopefully get a scholarship. Right now I am currently taking a culinary arts class that is teaching me the basics but I also joined Skills US, a club that you get to go compete for scholarships. But my plan is to take this year in the class I am in and next year takes Culinary Arts at the Career Center and the year after that advanced

    Lord of the Flies

    The symbols in the book "Lord of the flies" all reinforce the theme of the novel. All of the characters themselves were very symbolic. Ralph is a symbol of civilization, he is always the one who attempts to organize and accomplish things in order to better the group, like the fire and the building of shelters. Jack, on the other hand, is a symbol of anarchy. The struggle between Ralph and Jack is symbolic of the struggle between the forces of civilization and anarchy, or the struggle between moral conscience and the heart of darkness. The central symbol itself is the "Lord of the Flies," which implies destruction, decay, demoralization, hysteria, and panic, which were all seen throughout the book, and fits well with the novel's themes. In "Lord of the Flies", Golding was trying to capture three main different ideals by symbolizing what Ralph, Jack and Lord of the Flies all stand for.…

    Why I Chose Culinary School

    I was actually contemplating whether if I should take culinary arts, engineering or gynecology as my course in college. When I was young like around 7-9 years old, I had a thing for cooking, that as a kid it made me sure about taking culinary arts as my course in college. But years had passed my passion for cooking was slowly fading away, why? Because I thought to myself that if I take culinary arts as my course in college, my future wouldn’t be as bright as I want it to be. I’m not criticizing those people who took culinary arts as their so called profession, it’s just that I wanted my profession to be in a higher standard like the ones that my family took when they were in college because I always kept on comparing myself with my family and it really worries me thinking that I…

    Airasia : the Sky's the Limit

    Growing up I have always wanted to become an Attorney-At-Law, well time and things change, and I have been exposed to other career options. Becoming an Attorney-At-Law was not meant to be but still I had a burning desire and passion inside me to become a trained professional, so I thought I heard the kitchen calling, I could almost hear sounds of pots and pans cluttering, I could see spatula moving against thickly covered sides of bowls and a beautiful sight and sound it was. Cooking and baking I thought was my calling, my God given passion, I could feel it, even taste it. Whilst in high school, I chose Food and Nutrition as my area of specialisation at Clan Carthy High School, over a two period 2000 -2001.…
