Student Life|| SOLO CUZ YOLO

Today, I’m here to rant!

I had the most annoying week last week.

Two words; G R O U P W O R K

So in my public speaking class, my lecturer grouped us into different groups and asked us to write a speech presentation on the topic he gave us. My group topic was Citizen Journalism and the Practice Of Modern Journalism.

I have come to hate group assignments with every being in me. I’m the type of person that prefers to work alone because I don’t really do well with other people’s opinions in my school work.

And the worst part of group assignments; when you’re the only one who is active and putting effort. But in my case, only two and a half people were active members out of 7! Yes I meant half

Imagine my frustration

And alsoooo if I am told to write a presentation on a topic, I really hate internet copy and paste work.

And guess what, that’s exactly what these people wanted to do.

Oh Lord. O ja mi lara je (insert that Funke man meme)

You can’t give me an internet copy and paste work to submit that would cost half of my grade (Please I reject any spirit of carryover)

And even guess what, I’m the speaker LOL

I really don’t even mind being the speaker since I aced my public speaking speech presentation last semester (i made a blog post about it which you can read here)

So I guess I’m getting good at this public speaking thing. Stage fright semi-gone

So how can my group members give me Internet PDF copy and paste and expect me to read it and present it.

The lecturer even hates stolen internet work.

I know what most of you are thinking; mama just get it from the internet jor no dey stress yourself

It’s not like I love to stress myself. I’m a strong advocate of the babygirl lifestyle till I die, but I really cannot read and understand PDF work, it has to be in my own language and understanding so as to be comfortable presenting it.
