This I Believe–Vivia

Posted by jefferson8 on March 4th, 2008

I believe that I can go to school and graduate, and not let anybody get in my way. I believe that when I graduate from college I can open up my own restaurant. By opening my own business I would have to get my degree in business and food stuff. I love food and I love to work and see people everyday so that’s why I would love this job. Nobody could stop me because this is my own dream.   I enjoy creating cool type of weird food. My friends tell me that I have a good sense of smelling. There was this one time when Nara my friend made crabrangoon and she put cucumbers in it and I knew what it was right away because crabrangoon doesn’t have cucumbers in it. My older sister Julie is a very good cook and I’m usually testing her food all the time to see if it’s good or not. My sister and I get it from our dad. My dad use to own a restaurant before when I was even born. I went to the restaurant everyday. The customers adored me because I spent time with them almost every afternoon after preschool. I wasn’t old enough to learn how to cook I was only 5-6 at that time. Now these couples of years I’ve learn how to make a lot more of exotic food from both my sister and my dad at home. My dad had own a shop at that time also and he couldn’t take care of both so he had close the restaurant down. At this very young age I started working for him about four years ago. This is the reason why I believe I can open my own restaurant. It’s very fun but hard working and it’s a challenge everyday. It’s very hard I think you would at least have to know 3 languages Chinese English and Spanish. If you don’t know any of those especially English then it’s very hard for you to talk with your customers. Which in the mean time I would have to learn all these things before I open own my restaurant in the future? People believe that I can’t even make to college. But I believe if I work hard enough and not let those people get to me I can do anything I want to do. Those people that look down on me now one day they might just come to my restaurant everyday.  This is why I believe I can do what I want to do because in the future I will be the successful one. I am going to graduate out of high school. I will definitely get my bachelor degree in college and I will also open that amazing restaurant of mines when I get older. My parents will be very proud of this little girl that’s growing up.
