I've been writing alot lately, IMO. this is purely venting
you guys remember that short story i posted? i got a fucking B on it so i have to spend like 20 hours rewriting that
now i have 2 group projects (global + bio) in global i wrote my entire galileo script while my partners were just talkign to their friends and shit and blocking me on aim to not do work and my bio partner suggests that we do two diff projects and pick the best one( knowing this asshole hes not going to do it at all ) and i have a spanish test tommorow math test on monday bio project due on monday global project due tommorow
ok sorry about venting about... normal school stuff right now
no more blog posts for another 20 months ok :D

That's a lot of pressure for elementary school...

Too bad about your story. I didn't read it, so I can't comment on it, but I'd just like to assure you (maybe you don't need assurance, but...) that grades on creative projects don't mean shit. Don't let THAT phase you.
Other than that, I hope it gets better.

Well I'm not going to college so there
|
And it looks like a bunch of kids you know are fags
Tell your teacher this -_- You shouldn't put up with that bullshit
You're GeumChi you can do anything
|
Calm down man, life is great, don't be so angry. It's coooooooooool.
|
Why would you rewrite over a B? Thats not a terrible mark, just try not to get a bad mark on your next one..
|
what happens if you fail? expulsion followed by castration?
|
|
teacher said that if its under an A we are allowed to rewrite exactly AVO
|
Dude school doesn't matter just be chill.
|
you're right im going to become a progamer

B is good for your story.
|
what grade are u again pressure? If it's middle school to hell with it. If it's highschool tell ur teacher that ur partners are assholes, he'll put an end to that nonsense.
|
you should get other partners, not the lame ones who always do nothing, i was one of those. we suck and should get bad grades cause we fucked up! i did. but i'm done with school so WEEEE oh and yeah, really tell your teachers about your partners not doing anything, use teachers, tell them stuff and they'll like you. end of message.

I'll teach you something I learned in first year university about group work: Establish yourself as the head slacker.
This means if I was in a random group, doing an assignment (even if I was actually passionate about it) I would just pretend like I didn't care at the first two meetings. Saying things like "yea whatever we can just shamble it at the end" etc. This makes people think you are unreilable, so they won't give you the bullshit tasks. Then at the end, you can redeem yourself by suggesting you all get together to edit the final work, where you take over because everyone else in your group is borderline retarded and you don't know how they got into university. They've already done the grunt work, and as bad as it is it's easier to go over that shit with some polish than to have done it all yourself.
What you don't want to do is establish yourself as the keener, because you'll get taken advantage of and no one will appreciate the work you're doing. There has to be one of each in every group, you want to be the slacker.
