  queenie:
  when my oldest daughter was in the 8th grade, 5 years ago, she came home from school complaining that her math teacher was the meanest witch she ever met.  she hated her and had nothing nothing nothing nice to say about her.
   
  i told her, as i have often had to tell my children, that she was "stuck" in the math class.  that is wasn't fair to judge someone you just met based on one short class.  besides, you don't have to like everyone in life.  you really don't.  i mean who likes everyone? but you do have to figure out how to work with others, how to be a student ina class and learn from a teacher...
   
  anyway, long story short, after the 3rd week or so, my daughter started to like the math teacher who was the biggest witch ever.  And by the end of the year, she had become her most favorite teacher EVER.  She remains so to this day.
   
  You can't always go by first impressions.
   
  Sometimes you just have to give a person a chance.

  of course, as you already know qpdoll, your trainer is right. you see, you can do it, you can learn it, you just don't want to. and that is the root of your problem. that is what is coloring your attitude. the fact that you think in this case that what you want is more important than what you need to do. it's a very difficult thing to learn, some people never do. but if you can separate out that want, that 'nagging feeling' of wanting rather to be a pastry chef, then your training and your job will get easier. but if you don't, then even when you do get into pastry school, that attitude will follow you, and you'll fail as a pastry chef, because you'll say 'i can't do it'. see what i mean? make a success of this, and then making a success of that will be a piece of cake :-P

  Queen, I think your really doing something great for yourself! Wow, you told your teacher the truth, you took resposabillity for your attitude, and you can invision how your attitude might change things!
  Many people go a life time without making that kind of progress.
  If we walk this earth filled with energy, it might as well be positive energy.

  First impressions are rarely an image of someone's personality. When two people are meeting each other for the first time, they are not their true selves. It takes a few more conversations to give an accurate assessment of a person.
  
  And I absolutely love the picture! I hope you're feeling better; take care, get well, and keep your head up!
