I wrote my prof an email and he both emailed and called to express his regret. He's a nice man, I bear him no ill will. I wouldn't have been nearly so disappointed if I didn't enjoy the class so much.<br /><br />I broke into tears at the law firm once. They let me leave work early because every time someone asked me if I was alright, I just started bawling again.Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06164119748164140223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18246136.post-26308790917160172502006-12-07T23:03:00.000-05:002006-12-07T23:03:00.000-05:00Oh man, that sucks! Why didn't you say something? ...Oh man, that sucks! Why didn't you say something? It sounds like it was all a horrible misunderstanding!<br /><br />If it helps, I broke down in tears at work yesterday. The immediate cause was that I was trying to do the order, which I have only done once before, so am not overly comfortable doing yet, and all of the forms I could find were old order forms without the holiday cups on them. My poor manager didn't know what to do, but he let me take a ten-minute break, and then I asked him if he could do the order this time, and he did. Honestly, though, I'm just stressed right now and was probably just waiting for something to cry over.<br /><br />Hmm... another missed opportunity story...<br />I auditioned for a play when I was in high school, at a proper theatre company where people pay real money for tickets. The director liked me, but was worried by my lack of experience. So she offered me an understudy role, which I stupidly turned down, thinking I would never actually get to perform. Well, the night I went to see the play, the understudy was performing, and she was terrible! I wanted to cry, although I believe I might have held the tears at bay until I got home.Jule Annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07895353397595306177noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18246136.post-12568508302078622302006-12-07T22:20:00.000-05:002006-12-07T22:20:00.000-05:00Argh!

I did take a different tack than the woman who already did her presentation, but how many times should one class have to sit through a discussion of the same 14 pages.Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06164119748164140223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18246136.post-81315816172664223332006-12-07T17:55:00.000-05:002006-12-07T17:55:00.000-05:00Oh that is so awful!
The closest I came to this ...Oh that is so awful! <br /><br />The closest I came to this was the time I did almost all the work on a group project and then was completely shut out of the presentation. The prof was under the impression that I had not done my part because I didn't do much in the class presentation. <br /><br />Grrrrr..... I explained it to him, but I still don't think he believed me. And those ungrateful jerks who rode in on my coat-tails couldn't have cared less. <br /><br />Will you get another chance to present your material???Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03407981987874669303noreply@blogger.com
