Hell Week
For those of you who have been consistently visiting my very dead blog, yes do not rub your eyes, because I am finally adding another entry today. After my very long absence, I have decided to post an entry, although I think it may be very long before I post another one after this.
I have been very busy lately. Arts club stuff has more or less ended, but then all the school work is piling up and I am having some difficulty coping. I don't know whether it is a blessing or not, but all my assignment deadlines fall in the final week of school term. The blessing being I could concentrate on my arts club commitments without affecting my school work, but then now that all the deadlines have come together, I am in for a hell of ride next week.
Yup, today is Sunday, and here I am in clubroom. I was telling Mike just now how it feels like the army days, booking in and feeling miserable on a Sunday night. I felt the exact same feeling just now on my way to school, with my bag full of clothes, knowing that I would not be going back for a few days, and knowing that hell awaits me. I have one presentation and 4 different reports due in the coming week. Someone save me. My friends are all saying that they have finally completed their assignments, and can use next week as an extra reading week, but here I am rushing my assignments till the very last day of school.
Oh, and I just wanna add, that I am so not comfortable with group projects. Didn't really want to use the word hate, as I guess it hasn't reached that stage. The reason for having group projects is for everyone to have a fair share of contribution and workload, so that a rather 'big and heavy scale' project would not be too taxing on the individuals. However, it doesn't seem to be that way for most of my group projects. I find myself putting in alot for group projects, but in saying this, I am not saying that my group mates did not do anything. It is just that I tend to put in more effort than I should, as I always want to make sure that the project is up to standard. Don't know whether this is good or bad, but sometimes I just don't really know the exact point to stop and step back. I think part of this feeling I have came about because of a bad experience with a group project last semester.
Hmm, I still very much prefer individual work. You don't have to go through the 'not very fool proof' and 'not very fair' peer evaluation system, you don't have to find that 1% chance of a lifetime where everyone is finally free to meet, you don't have to compromise with what everybody ones, you don't have to see the ugly side of some people, and you get marks according to how much you have really done. Then again, I may die if I leave everything to individual work, because I don't have the group mates to actually push and pressure me.
Oh, and if you're reading this and may have a chance of doing a group project with me in the future, don't worry. I am just ranting. I will still be nice to you, promise :)
