Good for you, Sila. I would have offered to comment on your email if I'd been around and not at work (stupid time zones mean I'm never free when other people are) but I'm actually sure it is best if it's your own words coming from you. I hope your T will offer the support you need.
Sleep well.
Me, I've been meeting with students all morning and now I have to construct a course evaluation form. I hate course evaluations, hate them. Either I get criticised in which case I feel like the worst teacher ever, or I get praised in which case I feel like the phoniest teacher ever (since I've clearly deceived the students). Hmmm. Is this something I should tell T about, ya think?
And then I had to cancel a trip which my mum and I were to have made this upcoming weekend... the weather in northern Norway is going to be horrible with severe gale warnings and the last leg of our trip was to be with a small plane which won't fly in a gale. Since we were going for only a couple of days, to visit relatives, being stuck for a day in a small town where we know nobody (and there's a raging gale with sleet) isn't really that attractive a notion. Plus my mum isn't quite well after her pneumonia and I have been worried about her exerting herself too much. So it's the right decision but still a disappointment.
