Emma just emailed me to say she can’t come to my birthday dinner because she has an exam the following week, and the single TA for the class decided to hold the review session on the same night as my dinner. The review sessions are really helpful for her, so she feels like she should go. She said she felt really, really bad and she’d make up for it.
I’m kinda bummed because she’s one of my best friends and I really wanted her there, but at the same time, I understand. I mean, to choose to go to a review session on a Saturday night, you really have to need it. I am very glad she told me as soon as she found out she couldn’t come; we’ve always felt the same way about our time being wasted and shit, so she knows I’d get pissed if she told me last minute. And it’s just dinner, not a huge deal, we can maybe grab brunch on my actual birthday or something.
At least the rest of my friends can make it to my dinner!
