PROJECTS? NIGHTMARE!

Projects? This word definitely make EVERY poly student (I dare say) cringe. What are the odds of having a happy relationship with your project mates when you jolly well know that someone or even you yourself is going to disagree on what you or another person is doing. Everyone aims for the same goal which is without a doubt an A. But when things get bad. When everyone is at loggerheads, when everyone thinks that there are being left out, when communication breaks down. That is when the hopes of getting an A plunges to its deepest pits. And after that you find out that you get a C. Then what happens next? Everyone starts blaming each other.

It is like a cyclical process that will keep continuing for the next 3 years till we can actually get to choose our group mates, I doubt these misunderstandings will actually disappear. Is it how we actually communicate? Is it that difficult to just do a simple project just by following the instructions? Unfortunately, it is THAT difficult. However, the difficult part is not when we write the report or do up some powerpoint slides. The most challenging part is what no one can ever imagine. Which is
1. Dividing work among the group members
2. Handing in the work on time
3. Disagreeing on practically every issue
And all these lead to one thing. A RIDICULOUS QUARREL.
So what are the consequences?
Pretend that everything is normal? N-O!
1. Do not talk to each other.
2. Only talk when necessary
And what happens when these things occur? No doubt. A poor grade in the prject because of poor communication.

It all boils down to not choosing our own group mates. It is ridiculous on how the school thinks that not letting us choose our own group mates can actually bond us together. In fact, it makes us curse the other party even more. And from this I can conclude. If you want to get high blood pressure. Just work with someone whom you are not close to. Confirm high blood pressure ttm. Want to hear more swear words? Work with someone whom you are not close with. Confirm World War THREE! YAYYYYYYY~~~~~~

Seriously, it will never help if the lecturers keep choosing our group mates. It is more of ridiculous. Ridiculously RIDICULOUS. Urgh. You know other than the word ridiculous. I cannot say anything else. Pfffft!
