A Win-Win Day

What an interesting day it was, or still is. First, I finally mastered my new tennis partner. He used to beat me everytime and of course lecture me on tennis all the time. Then last Thursday I won my first set. Well, today I had my first chance. The first set was close...I lost 4-6. Then I told myself to relax since I have played very close every game. Then it happened. I won the last two sets with 6:2, and 6:2 scores. He still lectures me on tennis but not so loud. Next match on Thursday. Then we swopped cars. Ann took, mine and I am taking hers. Untill I figure out what makes the terrible noice while driving. Then she will get it back...or get a new one. Today also I declined officially an invitation to teach at Podkowa this semester. Who knows maybe next Fall? But only when I am convinced that they really need me. So far, I am convinced they do not want me and invite me only "przez grzeczność" which means you may come but only if you really really want to. Now I will come to Poland as an independent tourist. Maybe in June and stay about two months. I wish my best to the students at Podkowa, they deserve the best. I will still support my friends everyway I can. I am really encouraged with the progress in academic studies shown by Adam G.in spite the fact that he took the instructions in the Garden of Eden literally and started to "multiply." Another exciting news is about another graduate Grzesio! the Great. Ask him for detailes.It is men like those mentioned that make the teaching worthwhile. But I miss also being in Poland. I miss seeing the smiles the joys and the happiness and the beauty of my friends. Friends are the Flowers in the garden of Life! But enough "modlyn" as the Brits say. Time will come and I will visit Poland again. Good night for now and till the next blog, remember even if you promissed not to forget. Do you know the song: you promissed to forget me not but you forgot to remember!
