Any Objections?

sigh...ok, once again we had a class assignment and once again it was entertaining. this class we had to format a test and come to a 100 percent consensus on what we wanted. easily said than done. there were a few people who jumped to take control and it obviously wasnt going to work. what i did was let everyone else try to make the decisions and if the proposals sounded ok then i would vote for it but nothing was actually getting through to people. after waiting for someone to start being a leader someone...i think his name is albert stepped up and sort of grasped peoples attention. he was doing an ok job but he wasnt really getting his point across or controlling the class the way a leader is suposed to. so i changed my way of thinking and became more assertive (compete to win) and in the end as a class we decided on some real major issues and solved them. the reason i took "albert's" position is because i felt that i could do a better job than he was and he had no problem letting me try to talk to the class. given that i know how heated people got at the situation and how defensive and rude people became i still dont think i would change the way things were done. the outcome that we got i would say was a pretty good one and i honestly enjoyed hearing people bicker about their grades because it shows how people only care about themselves. its the american way i guess. individualism showed its ugly side during that class and i had fun watching until it was almost time to come up with our final decision and i realized that no progress was really made. all in all im happy with our decision..any objections? = p

Egg-selent planning?

well we had to create a stucture to protect our egg...that was the assignment. how hard could it get right? well my group didnt think that it was that hard to do and to succeed at so we spent very little time planning the assignment out. to be honest we didnt really think much through. there was pretty much a general consensus. we had an artist and we let her draw the picture. i trusted her judgement because artists think more abstractly than other people and i didnt really getr what she was talking about. i trusted in the rest of my group with the decision that they made. there was no real leader of the group, we all did our part. we didnt split up tasks or anything like that. personally im not one for planning. im a quick thinker and it has always worked out for me the best that way. well needless to say my groups device protected the egg. we were also the first person to drop the egg. basically we skipped all of step 3, did a part of step 2 because we knew we had a deadline, didnt really do step 4 because we only had one idea and went with it, and of course did step 5. HHUUUUEEEEVVVOOOOO!!!!!!!
