Me Scurvy
Crew: Plunder my treasures: |
Tidbits I am really feeling agitated by some of my friends who, I feel, have dropped me like a hot potato. I have not heard from at least one individual in a while, and I have contacted said person at least 3 times saying that I would like to talk with them, hear from them, etc. I do realize that I am far away, but that doesn't mean that I don't want to keep a friendship with this person. To make myself out to be a complete hypocrite, I have been doing the same thing I have been complaining about to Angela. My only saving grace is that I take the time to message her and let her know that I am busy, not just ignoring her. In other news, I had a really good clinic last night. My third client was a man who is notorious in the clinic for being next to impossible to please; basically, he just grades hard. When a student is used to getting all 5s on a 1-5 scale, it is hard for them to see 3s and 4s and possibly 2s. I think of this as good feedback, though, so when I had him as my last client last night, I felt really challenged, in a good way. I did get 3s and 4s, but he said that I did a good job for it just being my third clinic, and that I was specific to his needs. I was happy with this, and I hope to get him again so I will have the chance to see if I am improving. Having lip service from clients all day is one thing, but having someone who truly gives constructive criticism is another. I prefer the critic.
