Bad news day…
At lunch today Wendy dropped a bombshell. With head hung she said, ”There is something I need to tell you.” Red lights flashing, I had just asked her to review some lesson plans I have to turn in, and my heart sank. I thought I was in trouble or the school was asking one more thing of me. I don’t know what was worse, what she said or what I had anticipated.
The school has asked her to take a business job next semester so can apply the theories she teaches and come back in the fall to teach more business courses. I am losing my lunch buddy and best friend next semester! I was devastated to say the least. My only consolation is that I will have Kelly. I was so hoping there would be three of us next semester for lunch but Wendy has promised to come by and see me.
So new goal get my Chinese at a conversational level and bug Peter next semester. I did ask Wendy to put in a good word for me.
