I tried reaching out to my professor whether it was advisable to do an internship this school year. I’m an incoming third year this academic year.

I did that so that I could ask for someone he could refer me to so that I can ask them for advice and encouragement that me lead to an internship.

However, I’m afraid that he misunderstood my question.

At the same time, I misunderstood his answers.

He replied, “Do you have a choice?”

I didn’t understand his question, so I assumed he was stating about my current life situation.

So, I replied “Yes, I do have a choice. It’s up to me whether I do an internship or not.”

Then sometime later he replied, “OJTs are online.”

When I read that, question marks were all over my face?

How does that relate to my response.

I didn’t reply to it for a few hours, then I had the realization that I was probably misunderstood.

From his perspective, I was a brat who was avoiding internships or OJTs since it’s a requirement.

But that was until the fourth year!

From my perspective, I taught he was considering my life circumstance and base his answers on that.

What a fail, man.

It’s so tragic.

I just made myself look like a fool to one of my favorite professors in my college.

That’s tough. He probably won’t talk to a ‘spoiled brat’ like that again.

Damn.
