My Chinese class has group project to do oral presentations each week, with assigned partners. My partner doesn't have time to meet up, or rather didn't have time to meet up today and won't have time to meet until 9-10 on friday, which is more or less right before our class. So we were going to do the script separately then edit, and she volunteered to write it, then let me add in my parts. Then I accidentally leave my cellphone at my apartment at like 4, come back at 10 and find that she texted me to say she couldn't do her part, so would I mind starting the script and sending it to her. The thing is that I wouldn't have minded starting if she had just said it in the first place,
and I wouldn't have gone to anime club. I guess it's my own fault for not bringing my cellphone. Scratch that, the time stamp on the text says 10:46, meaning like 45 minutes ago. Gee thanks, I have a 9am class to wake up for, and I'm only just starting since I just got out of the shower. I'm really annoyed at this girl.
I'm also annoyed at the teacher because she posts prompts in simplified. Always. I read traditional and it usually takes me at least 10 minutes just to understand the prompt when its in simplified.
In other news, I still haven't received the letter from my sister, and she hasn't gotten mine as far as I know. My mom tells me now that if you send a letter with nice stamps people might steal it. I don't think I sent it with any special kind of stamp, at the same time, I probably used a commemorative stamp or something so it never reached her. I'm just pissed off because I not only wrote a really pretty letter, but I also drew a bookmark for her. From now on I'm taking a picture of anything I draw and color before I send it off.
And I can't help but add this in, because I have no life.
ohmigod Big Bang decorated a cake for T.O.P's birthday! Gahh, they're so cute. Reminds me of an older tv episode/show where Seung Ri made an omelette for T.O.P and they ate it all together. Stupid fangirl >_>
And more complaints! Typing Chinese on the mac laptop results in strange spacing I can't fix, so switching computers and retyping what I already had.
I hate how I'm never appreciative of people until I find out how much worse other people are. It makes me a terrible person. My last oral performance partner was James, and not only did we get the script done super early, he even went and wrote at least another 3 lines for each of us after his laptop ran out of battery. I mean hardworking aside, it's a lot easier to get things done when you bounce ideas off of each other and in my case, if there is someone smarter to correct grammar and usage mistakes. We also got a really good grade, the highest I've gotten in class so far. I guess if the other person is dependable, it makes me want to be dependable and work hard too. The girl that I'm supposed to be working with now was recommended to actually go into a higher level (as were a couple other people in my class right now), so not only is she definitely smarter then me, it's also a lot easier for her to write in Chinese and memorize it. It just makes me mad that she's so smart, but she's just being lazy in class. I mean I shouldn't say anything, I need to work harder too, but she's not even trying here :/
