Thankful
I am pretty thankful tat I am allocated to tis project group. They r pple tat din cross my mind when I was considering my grp mates. When I knew I was been 'pushed' into tis grp, I was a little skeptical n unhappy as it wasnt reali out of my own will to b in there. Today, after lecture, we had our first mini meeting to decide on which brand we would b workin on for our project. Although it was jus a short session, it showed me e workin dynamics of my grp n how everyone reacts to grp discussions. Things went pretty well n I am glad to hav G as our leader. E veri reason as to y why I am glad to hav G is simply bcos he displayed several characteristics which I felt r impt in a project grp.

Focus. Time-keeper. Open to ideas. These 3 characteristics r relatively impt in different areas of a project work. Personally, I hate being e role of a time-keeper in the grp. It makes me feel like a badie. Cutting off pple's conversations n being an anti-climax r e traits of it. Yet, no one can deny e importance of tis role. I am elated to find out tat I do not need to take on tis role anymore. I am not entirely sure as to how things will progress. However, based on e 1st meeting, we had a good start. I shall keep an open mind n see how things progress over time.:)

On e other hand, I was jus sitting to another grp during lunch n they were having their grp discussion. I was supposedly to b in this grp. Sumone swapped me with another gal reason being she lives nearer to e AMK area. This would facilitate them to find a better common area to meet up for project meetings. *speechless* After sum time, my grp finished our discussion n all of them left except me. I was still tryin hard to finish my Carbonara. To my surprise, e other grp is still stuck @ coming to an decision as to whether to pick a local or international brand for their project. I was pretty shocked as my group had accomplished much decisions made. Whereas for them, they are still actively discussing abt e history of diff brands. (fyi: they refers to onli 2 guys. E other 2 gals were practically quiet) Being an impatient person, I am glad things r moving in my grp. :)

In life, we often dun get wat we want. BUT...wat we receive/get in e end is to teach us a more impt lesson abt life.
