Should be working, but have been sidetracked by Internet. Bad Tallulah, bad!
Just to say: why are we being forced to work in groups to complete our computing projects? It's not like teamwork, the ability to schedule or the ability to delegate have anything to do with computing... well, they probably do, but... meh. I'm just grumpy because we're really behind already and if I was working on my own I could keep up. Even if it did mean me having to figure out all the programming on my own. I don't care!
In one of our units we have actually hit something I DON'T UNDERSTAND. As in, to paraphrase Rimmer 'what does this mean? What does any of this mean? I've covered six sheets of paper in complete gibberish!'
Yamagata is cute. *stares at Yamagata icon for a few minutes, thereby killing a bit more time in which she's meant to be doing maths*

I'm trying to stop looking at Yamagata, honestly I am. It's not my fault I have a pic of him and Kai on my noticeboard...
Okay, it is, but...
Quiet, you.

*SMITES University*
I'm sorry but I get SO PISSED OFF when Universities or schools make you work in groups. All it means is that a couple of people do all the work and the rest slack off and do nothing! Your grades rely on a bunch of other assholes and that pisses me off deeply. I'm terribly sorry *hugs* and I hope it all works out. *nods*

Date: 2004-11-19 12:38 pm (UTC)So far I've done the research, another girl has done 2/3 of the programming, a boy has done 1/3 and the other boy has... lots of appointments which mean he has to leave soon after we meet.
I still have this feeling we're going to fail, but... eh.
By the way, thank you for the presents! They were all lovely and I am keeping the mug in my room at the moment so no one nicks it. And the wrapping was fine.
The letter will probably be some time coming I'm afraid so I just wanted to say thanks.

Sorry. Seem to have gotten off track.
Basically, I feel your pain. I'm usually better on my own, too.
