PRG weirdness

Dec 08, 2005 15:28

Okay today we had PRG groups in English. So me, Joe and Rikki went to the library as usual, sat at our usual table and began to start. My paper was the first to be read and looked at. My paper was good. I know Rikki could understand what I was saying but Joe...uhhh. I like Joe. I really do. He's so great and funny but he never makes me feel like my stuff is good. And he don't really do that to Rikki. So I guess that's just how he is. But anyway Rikki's was next. Okay that's where the trouble started. Rikki's paper was good but it wasn't right. The assignment was to write an exemplary paper. Pick out a general statement and give some example of this statement. Like your general statement could be: Dogs make the best pets. And your examples could be they watch your house at night and are your protectors, they greet you when you come in...or you could be more serious and your general statement could be about the media and how it influences America teens. Just anything. Rikki wrote about how cats make the best pets. And her introduction was good but her examples weren't really there. Which isn't a big deal. Not at all. I mean so what she messed up. We all do. But Rikki flipped out about it. And I guess I don't blame her really because I know I would have to. I'm always scared when I write papers because I fear that Joe and Rikki won't like it. But anyway I felt bad for her. But her paper was more like a story...Now to Joe's paper. Perfection is all I can say. Joe is an excellent writer and I'm so amazed whenever I read his stuff. I never find mistakes. Maybe one...if I'm lucky two but that's about it. Rikki has a hard time finding Joe's mistakes to. It's hard to find mistakes when there are none. I guess why I'm writing about this is because this was the first time our group has been weird over something. Rikki was upset about her paper not being good. She was put on the spot. And maybe if you're reading this you're thinking I'm a dork for caring so much but I love my PRG group. I love how we all can work together and give good advice on our papers. I wonder if this will change it. Will Rikki start to always be worried about her papers not being right? Should I be more worried?

Anyway...my god. I friggin ran into Olivia like all day today. Every where I was, she was. It sucked so bad.
But what didn't suck was Walter got to give me a ride home today!
I guess I'm gonna go. I need to do my homework. I'll try to write more later.
