My fist day making a french omelet in culinary arts

My first day of college in culinary arts we cooked eggs. I have cooked all my life so i was thinking that it was going to be easy, boy was i wrong. When i was in highschool i had taken a culinary class and we did omelets in there. When i got to college then we did it completely different. It wasn't as easy as it seemed to be. We had to take two eggs and beat them with a fork in small bowl until most of the air was out. We put them into a hot pan, as it cooked we took a square rubber spatula and moved it back in fourth as we shook the pan, that was to inturupt the curd and make sure the air was out, so we didn't have any white spots in our omelet. We had it at low heat until it was pretty much cooked with only a little bit of egg left to cook. then we put our ingredients to season it, and foled it over but not all the way. then we took it out of the pan and folded it over again so it look like a roll. then we garnished it. we couldn't have any brown on it at all. and thats not an easy thing to accomplish, it also couldn't be too runny. After a while we all finally accomplished it.
