It took me over a week beyond the end of the semester to look at my advisor’s evaluation of my semester.
My first one, a year ago, had gone into much detail, reviewing the work I had done over the semester. This one was simple and it basically passed me. I was sad, too, because it basically gave me a “pass” too. Granted it has been a crappy few months in my life. Family illnesses, accidents and even a death. But I feel like I let myself down in the quality of work I did. I know I learned plenty – about myself if not the subject matters at hand. Still, I know I dropped a ball or two. I am not sure that was acknowledged there. Should it have been?
