Yesterday, my boyfriend and I went back to our hometown to celebrate his graduation party. WE all enjoyed eating delicious food. I had the chance to mingle with his family and relatives. I even had drinking time with my high school friends yesterday night. It was indeed a day full of fun and enjoyment. But then, the fun and happiness I experienced yesterday was exactly opposite of what I feel today. I tried to send a message to my student early this morning to inform her that I will not be able to have an English class with her today because our hometown is very far from the city and that I wasn't able to wake up early because I was so drunk last night. I already told her about that possibility few days ago. I also asked her for two days leave last Thursday and Friday because I attended the pinning and graduation ceremony of my boyfriend. She said she understood and I really thought so. She is a Korean. Now, after I sent her a message through cellphone, she replied to me and told me that she won't continue having lessons with me anymore simply because of my absences, where in fact, I already informed her ahead of time for her to understand. Even real employees in a company deserves to have leave of absences. I really feel bad now because I am badly in need of money nowadays, then I lost my job the time I needed it the most. Do you think I really deserve this?

..hi.. of course you don't deserve that.. however, people are really unfair sometimes that we just have to accept that.. anyhow, I believe you can still find some other job.. many schools are hiring English teachers right now.. most are korean schools so don't lost heart.. just try your best to find another job..
