I failed my Masters Comp exam. My essays were both weak. This means I don't graduate. I can't believe this. I am devastated.
oh, Nora, I am so sorry! Is there any chance for reconsideration?

{{{{{Nora}}}}} Do you get to resubmit your essays?
Oh, fucking hell, Nora! I'm so sorry!
Nora - that's so horrible, but surely, there is something that can be done?

Oh Nora, that's awful. I'm so very sorry.
{{Nora}} I'm so sorry.
You will graduate, it's just a slightly different path. Seriously, one of the graduate students working for us seems to fail comps every year, and they've all gone on to pass and get jobs and learn the secret librarian handshake.
Do you get to resubmit your essays?
Yeah, in October. During which, of course, I will be away for 2 weeks.
Oh Nora, holy crap!
Nora, I'm so sorry. But listen to Sparky, for she is wise.
