12 'Revenge' Inducing Group Project Problems

This may not be the Hamptons, but group projects are definitely shady.

Let's talk about group projects. We all have them, and we all hate them. There is always that one kid who doesn't do any work, and when he does it's mediocre at best. Professors tell us that group projects will prepare us for that big, scary place called "the real world," but I'm skeptical. Regardless, ABC's "Revenge" knows exactly how I feel every time I am assigned a new group project.

1. When you see a group project on the syllabus.

2. When there are more than three members to a group.

3. When your teacher says the whole group gets the same grade.


4. When you actually have a friend in your group.

5. When you have "that" kid assigned to your group.

6. When you finally get everyone in your group in the same place.

7. When a group member has a bad idea, but you pretend it's great.

8. When a group member asks you if you will do their part because they're "really busy."

9. When someone tries to present the project after they didn't do any work.

10. When a group member tries to be friends with you outside of class.

11. After you finish doing all the work.

12. When you're finally done for the semester.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week. It's the one time of year in which the library becomes over populated and mental breakdowns are most frequent. There is no way to avoid it or a cure for the pain that it brings.

To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
