This part here is something about me and how I ended up taking up Culinary Arts in SKD Academy. Lariam Kryszel S. Agocillo is my name.I am a mother of 4 kids with a trashy history of being a student. I was a Nursing student before and I felt like it wasnt really for me. I like long boards, skateboards, hardcore and metal music, arts, peircings and tattoos. Im a 27 yr old woman trapped in an 18 yr old mind set.

I like going outside my box and sometimes I like staying just inside of it. I dont like risks, but I like testing waters. I was hesitant at first to try out the Culinary life. I dont know if Im worthy of it. I feel like im still an amatuer and my soon to be classmates will flambe me alive. So I made a deal with my dad. If I can find an affordable Culinary school, he will fund my "back to college" needs.  if I cant, I will continue my Nursing course because thats what he really likes for me. Luckily I came across SKD Academy at google. But before going to the said school, I already inquired to some of the expensive Culinary schools here in Manila and to tell you honestly, you wont feel the warm welcome SKD gave me. 

 

When i visited SKD, I was entertained by Sir Louie. Super nice guy. He answered all my queries and even called me "kapatid"(brother or sister). 

So I talked to my dad and my partner about my plans of enrolling. So my father will fund my tuition and my partner will fund my allowance. 

 

And here I am now writing this blog. I think SKD deserves a shout out. This school didnt just taught me how to mince, saute, slice, flambe, degorge, blanch, tourne and sear. This school also taught me how to work in a team, to be excel in everything you do, to be professional, how to be a follower and a leader at the same time, how to multi task, how to keep your cool and how to think before you react.
