today felt like the longest day... maybe coz i had information overload. thank you, autobiography.
but while I had break, was talking to X, and then she brought up something regarding one of my classmates in Sri KDU. Heh. Small world, really. Wasn't really close to her back in high school but we worked for one of our projects. Haha. OMG, the minute she mentioned the word project, suddenly, all the memories came back.
And one of the reasons I profoundly remember it was because...
FLASHBACK 2007
my classmate let me and my other teammates do all the work. Well, perhaps the BULK of it. Of course, we all know she has problems of her own and god knows what else, but then, her excuses and problems became way too much for us to handle. But of course, in front of the teacher, we pretended that everything was alright and we didn't mind that she was doing very little.
there was a guy but that guy wasn't willing to sacrifice his bedtime to do the project so I was like: Ah! You know what? Let it slide.
then, I had a fallout with the other girl in my group who didn't exactly come to terms with the things I was doing. So, in the end, exhausted, I was, I gave up and let her deal with the rest on her OWN.
AWESOME, tak?
Well, I thought she only did that in school and God knows why she never changed for the better
which was WHY I keep on saying: It was one thing to deal with the smart-ies in my class. It was another to deal with kurang ajar- ignorant-showoffer-malas brats.
Nak mintak tolong pun susah... dah pandai sgt, tak payahlah tolong orang lembab macam aku. Dahlah, bila suruh buat kerja sikit, masa tu, bagilah alasan.
And, it is unfortunate that no matter where I go, my group members are always, without fail, lousy, problematic and un-cooperative.
which is why, thank god the course I'm doing now - we don't have that much group work. If at all, only twice per semester.
because it's so much better working on your own.
you don't have to wait for people
you don't even have to worry about being BOSSY
Thanks for the memories, man. And thank you for letting me pour my heart out about this particular girl... aka classmate whom in my opinion needs HELP to sort out her priorities in LIFE.
