Hey everyone!


So the past two weeks have been extremely busy.

Hmmm.....any way you could meet up with him (or is it a group?) for an hour then go back and study? Could he/they come your way?

If that's not possible, you could still call and say you'd really like to go, but you really have to study. Are you worried that he might not believe you, that you are making an excuse not to go out with him? Perhaps you could make plans to get together when you aren't so crushed with schoolwork. Listen, getting an advanced degree is not for whimps and it ain't cheap either. I just think sometimes study just takes a priority and people have to understand that. In my work, sometimes I have to work late on a job and have had to cancel social plans, but that's the nature of what I do. It doesn't happen often, but when a client is expecting a job, I can't blow it off.

You need to get the schoolwork done (trust me, I know all about being swamped) but you can plan in a break to call him.

>>I was kind of shocked at first because I had just met him, and he seemed pretty shy about the whole thing, saying that I was trying to think up of an excuse not to go out with them tonight, and saying if I didn't want to go out then don't bother calling.
