Campus: ChicagoProgram: Culinary Arts From: Rockford, IL More...
My name is Greg Taylor and I am a culinary arts student at the RMC Chicago downtown campus. I didn’t have an idea of what I was going to go to college for until my junior year of High School while living in Rockford. I was always a fan of cooking but never knew that I would one day become a professional chef in Chicago. In my personal experience life has many ups and downs and what I know for sure is that coming to Robert Morris College is definitely one of the ups that life has taken me through. I soon plan to start my Bachelors degree program in January of 2008 and I believe that coming back for my BA will put me way above the rest of the competition because of my drive to better myself educationally. A person once told me that there are ordinary people and there are extraordinary people and the only thing that separates the two are the extra things the extraordinary people do. So I try every day just to be EXTRAORDINARY!

Trust

Trust is a powerful word, and i think you really dont understand it until you reach college and you have to do group projects or your relying on a friend. i hear people talk about trust everyday and some of what they say goes like this, " man its hard to trust Joe because he never comes to school and he doesnt do his share of the work" or " i cant do this anymore you keep saying your going to get it done but you dont" i believe if you commit to something and you put your name on the line then you have to follow through with it even if you cant do it, its the right thing to do and others wont loose trust in you. so remeber when you enroll this summer that life is about trust and your going to see a lot of it when you get into college

King of the Jungle

What does it take to be the king of something? Do you have to be mean? Do you have to be good looking? Do you have to have certain dominance over all that exists? No...I think you just have to say that your a king or for the lady blog readers a queen. The whole point of this blog is to make men and women aware of how important they are and how valued their lives are to everyone they are loved by. If you know anything about me you know that I am Oprah's number one fan and I love and watch every show every night. Last nights show was about what would you do if you saw someone being bullied or abused or even discriminated against. The one topic that stood out the most with me was when a woman was being abused by her husband physically and verbally. I know they where just actors but there are real people out there who are going through what they where, and the victims are getting younger and younger everyday. If there is any one out there who is in a similar relationship as the two on the show, I want you to know you don’t have to stay in it. There are hundreds of ways for you to get out of a situation as that one. My favorite is realizing that you’re a queen and you should be treated like one or that you’re a king and you should act like one. Women aren’t the only people who go through bad relationships men do to but we won’t say anything because it makes us feel low, I’d rather fell low than be six feet below. Stand up and say something be the King and Queen you where made to be.

Better and Worse
I've always been told that things will get worse before they get better. It’s true I can remember a time when all things I touched went straight down the drain. My relationship with my girlfriend, my job, my finances and my faith in God. Then a strange thing happened, my life turned around and all those things got stronger and better. Better finance, better faith, better relationships, better job better everything and now I’m okay....I’m okay. So, some words of wisdom straight from the scroll to me to you hold on because things will get worse before they get better, but they will get better
