During the presentations, I brought up the situation I had in college with one of the top female students. I could easily appreciate her abilities inside the classroom setting, but could not understand how easily she could frustrate me. Her way of communicating to others was irritating to me. I always felt she was looking down on those who did not meet her standards. I didn't feel like she had much compassion for her fellow students. My fellow classmates did not help the situation, because they would help instigate the conflict be she and I. I can look back in retrospect. I did not try to know her better before making my own judgement. I followed a popular view and did not follow up on the information available. The head of the science department tried to help me see this. I was preoccupied with everything else to understand what he was saying. I have noticed that what you tend to do to others does come back to revisit you. I miss teasing her.
