english 101 mondays night

I want to write a visual literacy about my shop teacher in high school who showed me and brought me to the love of cooking.

I want to take one of my chef coats and make a collage out of it and then tell the story of a moment that he showed me that its not just a ingredient, its a idea and a flavor and a creation that you get...those are the moments that fueled my fire and passion to cook....

I read the excerpt written by Maya Angelou called I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings. She was a southern black woman who went from having nothing but sympathy to hatred for this woman Mrs Cullinan that she had worked for.

It amazes me that we still judge and treat each other in this society the way it was back in the early 1930's
We say that we have come out of slavery but all we did was move on to other things to judge and criticize.
Now its all based on stereo types and sexuality........
So good for Margaret for not allowing some ignorant person to treat her as she pleased.....

This comic hit home for me. I recently just realized that i am in a dead end job with know were to go and feel like i am a caged bird and that going to school, educating myself is a way to open that cage to freedom.

While most people sit and day dream of a better future, I have decided to take fantasy and turn it into my reality!
