I just hate to see people (your partners, you, anyone really) become complacent with writing. Things shouldn't be a chore or obligation and maybe you should tell them you feel like you're carrying more weight or even just ask if they have any suggestions to spice things up? *helpful puppy expression*

Okay, I know~ And yeah, thankfully I think they're historical fiction and NOT pure non-fiction so hey, could be worse...I'm just glad our final project isn't a massive one. And I got a B on the midterm, a high C on the phonetics one, so I think I'm doing alright, ready for summer though!

Yeah, you're probably right. I'm always just really anxious that people are going to be mad at me? Like, if I say I'm losing interest or I'm getting bored, I don't want them to take it personally. I never want to hurt any feelings, so I usually just put up with things that bother me and hope they'll get better.

Ooh, what about? Some non-fiction can be really interesting, it just depends on the subject and how it's written. I hope your project goes well though :3

I'd rather someone say they're losing interest, than have them feel forced to stay or even worse, just drop. Talking is underrated, it fixes things and makes things better. As long as you're clear about how you feel and how you want things to get better, not fizzle out like they are, I think things can he mended. To me, it's more promising than hoping things will work out in the end because the problem isn't ever addressed and both people end up getting upset at some point further down the road. You should talk to them, or at least brainstorm about the RP.

I think one is about a black guy coming back after serving in World War 2, the other is about a Chinese family trying to adjust to life in the 1900s in CA, and the last one is about life in Southern CA in the 1950s for a working class family. So they don't sound so bad, hopefully I can get one done this weekend and just do one a week and get them out of the way. ^^

That's true. I'll probably talk to them, I'll just panic my way through it and hope they don't get mad at me, haha.

That sounds interesting, though! At least it's a subject you seem to like, you know? It's so hard to do things with an era that bores you to death.

Naaah don't worry, just be nice and hopefully you'll both feel better at the end of it all.

It's CA history so I do like parts of it but most of it is really depressing...(in terms of what people did to each other) but the teacher is really nice and up front about things and after last semester with the teacher from hell (people from that class have approached me to vent, rightfully so), most things can go much better. *rubs neck*

The one where your class didn't understand what was going on, or was that a different professor?

Yeah the one where the class didn't understand the professor. He gave everyone Ds/Cs on essays, never gave grades for group 1-hour long presentations and changed parts of his quizzes to Latin because he felt like it. That guy was such an ass, he just shit all over our class because he hated teaching and had an attitude with any student who asked for help or direction. Fuck that guy. >___<'

So yeah, having anyone expect him means I'm having a better semester ^^

Professors that clearly don't care about what they're doing are the worst. Why even bother to keep teaching if you're just going to waste everyone's time? I'm glad you don't have to deal with that nonsense anymore.

He clearly didn't like teaching or even being in class, let alone cared about his students. I've told people to drop any classes with himif they can. I'm just amazed I passed, given the fact he graded me so harshly.

If we had a flag, it would be round because the moon don't need to play by the rules and be square. XD

We'd need toms mild gray shading, otherwise we could look like an egg. Not that those aren't yummy...

Hopefully they wouldn't go too far to assume we're hard boiled.

Though...I wouldn't be opposed to eggs being our national food of choice. Or bread. Mmmm space bread and butter.
