Today is the day we are supposed to present our research project in Biology Lab. We were supposed to meet last Sunday at Tina's (one of my partners) house to discuss the project.
Problem: Only I showed up at Tina's house.
Argh. Fine. We still have one week, I said to myself. We arranged to meet Sunday after Thanksgiving to try this again.
Problem: I call everyone Saturday, and no one is home.
Argh. Fine again. I start to panic. Then I calculate how many points my overall Biology grade would drop because of the research project. It turns out to only 3-4 points. Fine. If I get a B in the whole course, my GPA would only be around 3.8. Awesome. So, I say one thing to myself: "If they don't care, I don't care." I blow it off.
Problem: Everyone starts calling me one hour before we were supposed to meet.
Argh. Fine. We get to the library at the University.
Problem: Not everyone is there.
Argh. Fine. The group members that are there listen to me lecturing them, since I was the one who did most of the work anyway. Then, at around 9:00 PM, the person that wasn't there finally calls me back. We're having another meeting today before lab to practice. But, overall, I have no real cause for concern. My grade will be fine, and I'll be okay.
Pray for me anyway.
