What I dislike about group work

Number 1: I dislike group projects because you have to find a time when everyone can meet outside of class. Inevitably someone can't make it or once the time is scheduled someone forgets and doesn't show up and either they get screwed or the group gets screwed.
Number 2: Group dynamics. When you have a group you have to deal with no one taking charge, too many people taking charge, arguments, etc.
Number 3: People never get things finished when they say they will so someone ends up finishing the entire project the night before. gay.
Number 4: I don't really like having to talk to people
Number 5: Most likely you have to present in front of the class and who really likes to do that? Teachers. That's who. They should be teaching the class not us.

Well, thanks for letting me vent. All in all group projects aren't really that bad at least when you end up with a good group which I did in this class so that turned out ok. And it does make the assignment easier in some ways. For one your not doing all the work yourself, that is if you don't end up with a gay group that doesn't do anything. And everything gets edited quite a few times because none of you really trust each other to do your jobs well and in the end you have a better paper.

Hot chocolate

I seriously had the best hot chocolate the other night. It was reese's peanut butter cup hot chocolate from seveneleven and I added a couple of vanilla creamers and a chocolate creamer. To top it all off I added those little mini-marshmellows that are especially made for hot chocolate. mmm...yummy. The only downfall is that on our way home while I was enjoying my hot chocolate I had a bit of a mishap and spilled it down the front of my shirt. Luckily, I think I got the spots out. Thank you liquid tide.

Las Vegas

Well kids, I just got home from Las Vegas. It was prett sweet. I loved the water show at the bellagio. I loved shopping. We found the coolest little store in a casino where everything was $10. They had watches, purses, sunglasses, bracelets, necklaces, and scarfs. I ended up buying a watch and sunglasses and let me tell you they are pretty nice. I loved just chilling with the girls too. We went to the stratosphere. That was awesome. We went to the very top and rode one of the rides. It's kind of like the blast off ride at lagoon except that you're already about 1000 feet up. It was kind of funny because one of the girls we were with is afraid of heights and somehow we all convinced her to go. And then she was totally fine with it. A little scared but not too bad. But one of the other girls that had helped to convince her to go started crying on the ride. Pretty ironic.
