Students are Funny

Below is an email I received from one of my students here in Germany. Now there is a lot I could say, but I do not think my reaction is worth burning my candle on both ends. So I just decided not to respond. Enjoy the laugh.

"Unfortunately, I've to tell you that I can't take part in course on
Wednesday any longer. At the moment I'm not able to do the Readings
and to post my reflection statements weekly because I haven't enough
time. I'm so sorry about that. Lately, I've burned the candle at both
ends and I feel overload. For that reason I've to shorten my work
quota. I hope you're going to understand my decision."

Sounds like something my friend would say. Apparently it "takes him a while to get going" with his studies. lol --Steph
