Quote of the day: Humankind cannot stand very much reality.
-T.S. Eliot
'Tis greatly true in any era during which humankind has lived.
So my Japanese oral performance partner and I aimed online last night to get some things down, but he wasn't in class this morning, like I figured he would be. Now I don't assume too much about people, or at least I try not to, but was I mistaken in believing he'd be in class today, especially since he said we would meet after class to work on it? I hope not, but you never know. Maybe I should never assume anything. Assume something like my grade would better if we had met and went over it. Assume something like humans give me hope. How I see it, and this may be a glass-half-empty-remark but I feel that humans, no matter how much we try have high expectations of each other, and also no matter how hard we try we always let each other down.
I texted him. No response. We already checked our schedules. We works/has class when I don't and I work/have class when he doesn't. How ironic and horrible is that?
I'm thinking of emailing Sensei...what do you think?
