WHAT DO I WANT TO LEARN THIS YEAR

this year I really want to learn how to cut with the knife. Because when I was younger and till this day, I watch the food network to see how they use the knife, but never could get it. I want to know how to use it for my self. I also want to know the basics of the food. Like the bacteria, and food borne illnesses like we are learning now. I just want to learn as much as I can, so when it is time for me to get ready for chef jobs i can be able to do it, and I would already know how.
