Being .03% Away From Graduating With Honors at Le Cordon Bleu is a GPA Travesty

(This was written a while back and then taken down because I wrote the wrong percentage and felt like a dork...)   People who think this is a first world problem need to calm down. Imagine working your brain to maximum capacity for over two years, only to find out you are .03% away from graduating with honors.

Freaking out about a culinary school externship is so lame. Please keep this secret because I am none other than the student freaking out.

For some reason, seafood doesn't hurt my feelings-- especially lobster rolls. The class...

It was really weird walking into the very first day of Contemporary Cuisine at Le Cordon Bleu last week. I suddenly looked across the room to see none other than--- the library volunteer. She and I have rolled tumbleweed for almost one entire year. It was me against the world when I walked through the library door each day. What seemed like something simple had become crazy. She wanted me to...
