Which reminds me

I am not necessarily more organized than anyone else. I just hate group projects, that's all. In high school Spanish literature class sometimes the other girls in my group just wanted to sit there and chat and gossip about anything else and not talk about the assignment so as not to reveal that they had not actually even tried to read the book and really did not really have anything to contribute to the discussion. So if I jump in and say something about how we ought to get started now or anything at all about the book then I am labeled as the book-reading drudge and they all sit there looking at me like I am crazy because I just want to do my homework and get good grades in my classes. I don't think of class as the time to sit there chatting about everything else on the planet. In that sense yes I am sort of organized to a certain degree. I may not get straight As but I am not stupid and I don't like my grades being dragged down by these slackers. I was trapped by cheaters.
