I dont' think anyone on here cares, but this semester my new elective is Advanced video film, a class in which all work is done in a set group throughout the semester. I come to find out I know no one in the class, everyone else knows each other, and they're all drunken losers. So as it stands so far, i'm in no group, the rest of the class are drunken losers all in groups, and i want a good grade... this is gonna be SUCH a fun semester...

what he said...high school? if not i had that problem with a group i was in, in college. i talked to the prof about it and asked if i could just forget them and do the whole project on my own. she said it would be fine so i did and got a B in the class. btw, the group i was in didn't even BOTHER to tell me or call me when and where they were meeting (they had my phone number and the like). did they just expect me to know all of a sudden? i hate groups...always get stuck with the stupid people.

Well thats another thing; i'm not stuck in a group with them, but i do have to be in a group. so in essence, i will be stuck with the sort. Hes already announced it is madatory to be in a group. basically, i'm screwed. I talked to my counselor about what else is available that period, and its basically nothing...

so that means there is something? sounds like ANYTHING would be better than that class. otherwise buck up and be prepared to do all the work.
