My political science professor didn't like my proposal.
He said it was a great proposal for a reflective paper, and that it had a great creative sense to it. But it wasn't a good proposal for an analytical essay.
But you know that every cloud has a silver lining right? YES!!
Guess what he said! He gave me the best compliment ever! He said "you are in the wrong place." I said "what do you mean?" he said, "You are in the wrong place, from the very first day I could feel it, you should be doing creative writing, I could even see it in your emails"
I said "wow...that is such a great compliment.... thank you!"
Yes, I love that man. Dr. Abdel Aziz Ezz El Arab, thank you for being such a great person. And thank you for your constructive criticism! Thank you!

Maybe he'll give me a nice compliment too. God knows I need one :(
That is fantastic! I love when people stop pursuing their own agendas long enough to affirm someone's true talent and promote someone else.
Congrats and enjoy!

that's great! to have someone wise and objective just tell you like it is and inspire you to follow your instinct :)
I can't even count the blessings that my most dedicated teachers have given me.
It's lovely when someone truly cares about their students.
Good luck, and follow your heart babe!
I hope you are able to follow your passion!
