#57: Three Hours isn't a Cure

So I really don't know which people I should associate with and which I shouldn't.

I thought that coming to University, the majority of people would be like me when it came to essays: simple to follow structure, correct referencing, accurate grammar and spelling, sophisticated sentences, and not a conjunction in sight. However, this belief seems to continue to fail. After swapping some of my essays with some of my other dormies, it is hard for my to grasp how these people survived the HSC. I suppose all of you who go to a City University who began their course knowing that everyone else around them would have had to got above a certain UAI to be even sitting in that lecture theatre, unlike myself who is surrounded by a rough bunch of kids.

On the other hand, there are various people in my course who are above average intelligence, and I seem to not live near any of them. It pains me to think that even though I completed much of the work for the group presentation we had today, and had clearly set out the workload of the other three people in my group, I still was left picking up the pieces off the floor. Our group sucked big time today. It was the presentation that went along with our Lip Sync, and even though I did all of the paper work concerning our research, costuming, stage directions, inspiration, initial ideas and references, and the skeleton for the power-point, I was left to finish off half of the speech and the entire cover sheet which had been assigned to other group members to share the workload. Then, instead of reading the notes and then expanding on them, I found myself standing in front of the tutorial with a bunch of readers. I'm seriously considering putting in a work discrepancy form. But something is stopping me.

Pride should go jump.
