My Life as a chef, a story by Austin Makowski
<html>
<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I started working in the food service industry at the age of 14, working a catering job a few days a week to make some money for myself. My family was middle class but we didn't have a lot of money, so I paid for most of the things I wanted as a teenager. Anyways, I went to high school and college studying to be a computer network specialist; after a year of college and learning about this. I couldn't take it anymore, I just couldn't stare at a computer screen all day! I dropped out of that college and moved back home for 3 months, I thought about my life and what I wanted to do with it. I always had loved working in the kitchen through out high school and college also as a child with my mother, I decided to go to culinary school in 2007.</p>

<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As I made my way through culinary school I applied for all the scholarships I could and worked 2 different restaurant jobs to pay to put myself through the schooling, in 2008 I had the opportunity to travel the Tuscany region of Italy in a culinary study abroad program through the school. In 2009 I had the opportunity again with a scholarship and some hard work I saved up and went to Spain to study culinary as well both trips were amazing. So many thing that I learned and countless 1st time experiences, memories I will cherish forever.</p>

<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As my journey of becoming a chef, I worked with many crazy drugged out people and knowing that one day I would have to oversee these kind of people. In my immaturity I decided that I should try every drug, that way when I had to deal with people on a certain drug I would know how to deal with them. In 2011 I became a heroin addict, I got clean in 2013 on my birthday and I haven't looked back since.&nbsp;</p>
<p>If you've ever seen "Hell's Kitchen" the TV show; that gives you a pretty realistic view of how things work in a kitchen, at least the parts where they are cooking dinner.</p>
<p>I have met amazing people working in restaurants, along with criminals, soccer moms who are moonlighting for extra cash, struggling college students, wanna be actors</p>

<p>Whatever you do in life follow your passion and you will find happiness.</p>
<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As I prepare for my next big move in life, I look back and reminisce; <strong>It has definitely been a wild ride!</strong></p>
<p><strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;-Thanks, Austin&nbsp;</strong></p>
