Today, the inevitable has happened. Voice cracked and Tears rolled down! I bet, I looked like a poor old lady with 9 cats, crying over spilled milk!
Had I known I was going to be thanked and sent off by the parents' association, with a speech, a bottle of good red and a gift card, I would've probably not dressed better (I have nothing to wear), but at least, I would've blown dry my hair! My colleagues also surprised me. A standing ovation! I cried harder.
I don't even remember what was said about me, I was busy watching my academic career flash before my eyes. I must admit, I felt like a movie star receiving a lifetime achievement award!
Is it really over? It seems as if it were only yesterday, that I attended my first class at University of Toronto. Blink ..., Blink ...
At the moment, the only thing that's keeping me from totally falling apart, is editing the Report Cards!
