My 4:00 student is full of lame excuses...well, her mom is, she's only in fourth or fifht grade or something like that. BUT MY GOD. She's only missed the last MONTH of lessons. with little notification, like less than the standard 24 hours. and she hasn't paid for them, so I'm eating it. so I'm pissed. so I called her today and left a message ( Read more... )
