If Group Project Members Were "The Office" Characters

Group projects are, by far, the biggest wild card about college. The group members are the make or break factors. By the grace of a higher power, you get bomb members -- or you get the short end of the stick and get stuck with slackers, for lack of a better term. Luckily, "The Office" characters embody all possible group members you can have.

1. Creed Bratton.

The whole term, you're just really confused by everything this kid says. Any suggestion the Creed of your group has made no sense whatsoever. The crappy part? You're stuck listening to his rambling and you can't even set him up with a blog on Microsoft Word.

2. Angela Martin.

She's a little difficult to get along with. The Angela always thinks she knows best and really doesn't want the input from any of her other group mates.

3. Ryan Howard.

The Ryan is literally glued to his phone. He's a dreamer. He has unrealistic expectations and wants to put in none of the work. Ryan starts off as a promising group member, but you soon realize you've been stuck with someone almost as useless as Creed.

4. Angry Andy.

This kid was definitely spoiled by his parents and they paid people to do his projects since kindergarten. College is the first time the Andy is doing anything for himself and when things aren't going as he planned, he'll get kinda angry.

Unfortunately, that pizza was harmed in the making of this gif #RIP.

5. Michael Scott.

Michael isn't really taking this project seriously. He comes in, jokes around, doesn't really help in his contributions, then goes home and floods your group chat with memes. Even though for the entire term, the Michael doesn't know what's happening, somehow two weeks to the finish line, he pulls out the best project ever.

6. Phyllis Vance.

Phyllis is a wildcard. You're not really sure what you're dealing with. The Phyllis looks sweet, obedient, and innocent but then their words and actions completely contradict your assumption. The Phyllis just leaves you scratching your head because she was nothing like what you expected.

7. Kevin Malone.

He tries his best, he really does, but sometimes you wanna tell the Kevin to maybe try a little less.

8. Kelly Kapoor.

Kelly is a blabbermouth, she never shuts up. Unfortunately, nothing she talks about pertains to your project, but if you were wondering the current state of Hollywood or her boyfriend, Kelly is your go to gal!

9. Pamela Beesly.

Pam means well, she really does. She contributes as best as she can and sometimes she hits the jackpot, but usually Pam just has cute artsy ideas. But, she'll flirt with the teacher like when she tried to get Michael to agree to new chairs from the surplus money, Hot Tie Guy!

10. Dwight Kurt Schrute.

The ultimate kiss up, the Dwight will be overzealous about your project and will be trying much too hard to impress your teacher and give little to no care about how any of his group members feel about him. Dwight will do whatever he believes it takes to get to the top no matter what it takes to get there. Clearly, Dwight's way is the right way.

11. Toby Flenderson.

Toby is awful, that's all there is to say about it. Say no to Toby.

12. Jim Halpert.

Looks like a slacker, but he'll get the job done well and quickly. It won't be done well enough to get a 100 on the project, but Jim ensures a passing grade. The Jim will get it done quickly because there has to be enough time in the day for him to prank his neighbors.

Picking group project partners is basically a game of Minesweeper; tread lightly, friends.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
