Polly and I are thinking of defecting. Ken and Rami are going to have to do there own thing. They are of absolutely no help. I asked for their advice on our current class project and it's been three days and no reply to my email. I know that Ken can check his email. I've been to his house. He's got two computers at his disposal. I see no reason for him not to be able to respond. Rami says that he's got a computer at his house. What's the deal? They are two of the laziest people I have ever met.
I have a faux job right now. I guess it is a job but I don't do a heck of a lot other than really basic data entry. On the bright side I don't have to answer phones, I get to wear jeans (maybe one day I'll go in in sweats and see how that goes), and it's not possible to be stressed there. You couldn't even if you wanted to. The major down fall. I work 5 maybe 6 hours a week. In otherwords. I can't pay rent still. Sucks? Yes.
I want to get hired at an organization that is a 5 minute walk from my house but the hiring manager is still interviewing as of Thursday. Usually that's a bad sign considering I was interviewed the Friday before. I guess all I can do is cross my fingers.

Well today we had to hand in our final reports for project 1. Iwas hoping that Ken wouldprove Polly and I wrong and come to class with a report that was going to blow us all away. That didn't happen. I decided that it was in our group's best interest that we have a backup reoprt written just in case Ken flakes. It's a good thing that I did because he didn't show up to class today.
Now as far as attendance goes in that class I'm not going to critize. I haven't been to every class and I did miss both days that we presented our project. The difference between Ken's absence and my absence is that I didn't really need to be there to operate or record results because there are two people in our group that aren't doing bubkus so let them do a little work! Well that was bad thinking on my part because no one, not even Polly, recorded any results from the first or second day of competition making it really hard to revise the formulas that I came up with.
Undaunted I forged on and wrote the final report with the anmeic amount of information that I had. I showed Polly a draft and took her suggestion about having a problems and solutions section to the reoprt. I left some space available in case we would be able to get our run results from the TAs but that didn't happen. What fun was it to be both the webmaster and report writer. Not really. I had the webpage up a week before it was due. It was nicely laid out and all I had to do was add whatever extra information we got from the competition days. I fulfilled my end why the hell I have to cover for the other person who was responsible for documentation I don't know. Damn this class and it weighing 60% of my grade on team projects.
I have this horrible feeling that despite the fact that Rami is supposed to be the report writer for Project 2 I am going to be stuck doing it. Rami is almost as bad as Ken. He does slightly more and gives more input. Unfortunately at some point he forgets that there needs to be a building and testing stage. I got stuck with a bunch of kids that I don't want and I shouldn't have to nag people to follow through on their end of the work.

Another month goes by, no job and still bumming from my mom. Boy am I glad that she loves me. I just sent Cindy and email giving her my url and begging for DDR. I am shameless. I lost it then found it under the couch like four or five months later and I swear there is some cruel force out there keeping me from DDR fourth mix.
I was bad today, actually I was feeling more than a little depressed this morning and decided that it didn't matter if I went to class or not. Now I'm feeling a tad, only a tad, bit guilty that I bailed on my group project presentation. Why do I only feel a little bit guilty? Because Polly and I built the thing, I had the team webpage up a week ahead of time and made the spreadsheet of possible formulas. Ken and Rami's contribution? Well Rami bought the supplies, Ken has yet to prove useful and better hand in a damn good Final report. Oh yeah that's another thing that Polly and I did while Ken just sat there staring off into space, the progress report. Polly and I should just seperate ourselves and start our on group. Bah... fresh from high school college freshman...I forgot how intollerable they are unless you are one of them.
