I went to the Aussie University fair held my IDP yesterday with my folks. Only reason being Le Cordon Bleu had a representative there and I wanted to talk to him/her. He reintinerated what I had expected from LCB and my mind's made up about attending that school. Also, he was very kind, saying to let him know when I've submitted my application so that they all can watch out for it. How nice right? You don't find that in local schools anyway. And besides, he's the marketing manager! You don't expect that from a person of that position. Ok, LCB takes in about 45 applicants per intake; there's 4 per year. So if nothing goes wrong, I should be applying for the April or July 2008 intake. I haven't decided to just do the 9 months certification program (which is more than adequate for being a chef) or the 2.3 years Advance Diploma in Culinary Management program because the difference in fees is *drum roll.. AUD $20,000. No kidding. But I'm gravitating towards the 9months program, so most likely I'll take that. Kayi and I are going bonkers about macaroons. I bought her a box of them from Canele and she's like, "ooooooooo". haha. I feel like having some now. haha. Look how cute a french bakery did them. -edit- She said she didn't go "oooooooooooo". More like "arghhhhhOOOOOOarghhhhh". Or somewhere along those lines.
