So any thoughts on the future yet? Do you want to stay in Portland? Do you think there are a lot of job opportunities in the area? Does six months include your internship?

Well I purchased a home 2 months ago and am bound to stay in Portland for a while.
Iam going to France in September with the school on an educational culinary tour and then I have my 6 week internship.
Still wondering if I need to do my intership work in a french based restaurant here in Portland or go to Norman's in Coral Gables (Caribbean/Asian fusion).
Iam from the Caribbean and understand the style but at the same time I want to learn more about the French style of cooking.
And then incorporate my style with that.
Iam having a blast in school. I have since gone part-time at the hospital and am in school in the PM. Iam taking Restaurant management and am having a blast.
Iam designing a restaurant from the bottom up, come up/ cost recipes, wines, beers, equipment, staff payment, schedules, decor, demographics etc.
Had the highest score for the midterm.
Yes Iam having so much fun I cannot wait to actually get my hands dirty.
No iam not working in a restaurant yet and will when iam done with school iam sure.
A chef at my school suggested i wait until iam done. Well Iam very pleased with all your well wishes and I will keep you posted on my progress.
Sorry Iam not on as often as I had hoped to be.
Thanks again
Danielle :rolleyes:

I suppose if you were on here more often, you might not be getting the excellent grades you've been getting. Good luck with your internship. :)
