I Wanna Know ...
Question: Hey Cori! I have a classmate with whom I went through my second year with. I am very familiar with her missing classes and stuff, but I let her know at the beginning of the current year, that the movements that were going on last year would not be repeated. So, the year begins and now we are in a group together with another young lady who is very focused, and I appreciate that. But my classmate has pretty much blown off any attempts at working as a group. Its the night before the assignment is due, and shes now hunting me down to get information about the assignment. I have been ignoring her calls, texts, and ims bcause its not fair that the other yong lady and myself scheduled and sacrificed time to get our work done, and she wants to hop on the bandwagon at the last minute. What would you do in my position?
Answer: In my opinion I would tell the heffa off. LOL. But it's always better to combat trash with class. Clearly, shes someone who is trying to get off on making you and the other girl do all the work and trying to get in where she fits in AFTER the fact. If you tried talking to her woman to woman, maturely and diplomacy didn't work then its best you and the other girl make your professor aware of her antics. There is NO reason for her to get grades and praise from the work you do.
Question: OK, Cori question. I'm on my association right, at school for black students. So my president
and everyone else said how they wanted to do rock climbing... Ihate that shit. Now, she making me feel bad for not going saying how she sprained her wrist but she's still there. Should I have gone?
Answer: Yes. You should've. For something like that ... if ur on a school association committee and its not just a get together with friends or what have you, you should always go and show face, unless u truly cant make it. But, just because you dont like the activity that's not the best reason to not go. It would be different if you couldn't physically do it. You could have even gone just for the social aspect and not climbed. No one can force you to do something you dont want to do, but showing up would've been a great effort. Not going for the reason you stated, doesnt show that ur part of a team.
