howsmyenglishMy former teacher and PhD advisor came for a visit to our country. I'm going to meet him in the evening (which means I'll only get home from work at around 11 pm, but that's another problem). I... I used to think him very, veeery knowledgeable and superior to myself. Until not very long ago I had an insight. And I realized that he was almost purposefully dragging me down all those years. I dislike him currently, even though I realize that in the end what happened had to happen and it's probably more my fault than his... Still. He's here and I'm meeting him this evening. Is it a coincidence that I had a terrible night and woke up with an aching back? I doubt it. Soooo... resolution for today: don't let him drag you down! He's not a bad guy, he's just not very clever despite what you thought for years. Chaaarming, but not very clever.
