HELP
Here goes another blog that I honestly am pulling out of my ass.  The past few weeks have gone by so fast that I want to mention something that is bothering me again.  One of my best friends is getting married June 5, 2010 and a group of us girls organized a bachelorette party.  I chose the Hard Rock Casino in Tulsa, OK because it has the restaurants, ice bar, and the club called friction.  I ended up leaving the so-called “meeting” early and then I get an email saying, “We need your money by this weekend.”  I though ok that is completely fine because I was excited to shop for party favors with them.  Come to find out I was not invited nor were the girl going to ask me to join.  It was the crappiest thing EVER.  Honestly, my feelings were crushed. Not only was she my best friend but her other so-called friends were taking over and they will not take care of her when she is completely trashed and cannot walk.  It will be me caring for her of course…Like always.  Not only to add on to that week of crap is our final exam focusing on a presentation with our group.  It is five people, one of the students did not finish their part, and the teacher docked each person because of her un-organization skills.  I dislike group projects with a passion and I will NOT ever have my students reliable for someone else’s work.  Therefore, I had the group meet afterwards and told them to have their information ready by Monday or else I am taking over and finishing it because if not my grade will go down.  I am not going to sacrifice my grade for someone who does not give two shits about anything. I thought the older a person got the more mature and organized they became.  I guess that is just me.  After all this happened I went to church and just poured my heart out to God and was just was hoping for guidance and security through all of this mess.  Our pastor talked about Philippians 2:14 “Do everything without complaining and arguing.” It also talked about putting a hundred percent of effort into the things you do each day and do not get upset if your career or goals are goings as you planned.  Focus on the plan that God has in store for you as a person.  Of course here I am complaining like most people do, but this is my way of expressing to other students to get things together.  Please focus on the money a person wastes by not trying to succeed.  I understand things become a distraction and there is no way out but plan for the future and set goals high.  This Sunday- David and I are dedicating our daughter to raising her in a Christian life, which it is Mothers Day and an emotional day for our family.

Yeah I hope you don't ever submit to the theory of group projects. I thought I was past that until last semester when I had to do one for Brit Lit. We were the last group to go and after weeks of her laughing about having to dock groups for going over time and how people couldn't summarize correctly. I stood there next to my group members and listened as their summaries went crazy deep and way over time. In case any of you are reading this, a summary of a chapter in a book shouldn't contain two sentences describing every paragraph. That's just half the book.
ReplyDeleteYou have every right to be upset about the stunts that your best friends friends are pulling. My advice would be to talk to your friend, there is a reason that she is your best friend. Also, don't stress the small stuff, rely on yourself to get you where you want to be. I have learned that depending on others while in college will only add more stress to yourself in the end. I am so sorry to hear about your mom, just remember that she is with god and she is healthy and eternally happy and also looking after you. She will always be in your heart.
