Throughout
this class I was never one of the social people, I didn’t raise my hand or
answer any questions really. That’s just how I have always been, I always feel
like what I have to say is wrong so I would just never answer and just listen
instead. When you said we would be doing a group project that meant that I
would have to be working with people that I didn’t know. Its not that I am
against group projects I think they can be fun if they are over something the
whole group likes. Before we were put into groups we had an essay that we wrote
over a UK club/activity. I wrote my paper over the club volleyball team, mostly
because sports are important to me and I miss being involved with an activity.
When we were placed into groups I
didn’t know anyone, but I am a social person in general so I didn’t have a hard
time talking to my group members and trying to figure out what we were going to
be talking about. We decided to go with Haggin hall and I was completely fine
with that because I thought that it could be funny and be something everyone
would like. Honestly the group member who thought of this was the one who
really did the project in a sense because haggin is an all boy dorm which made
it hard for any of us girls to go in there because you need to be checked in
and you can have so many guests and such. Anyways, I didn’t completely like how
our video went because we weren’t really involved, I have a very busy schedule
and I knew that it would be hard for me to do things, but I said anything I
could help with I would on my own time. I was in charge of getting a recording
of my grandfather who went to Kentucky back in the 60’s and I worked really
hard on getting that because I had to drive back home since over the phone didn’t
sound well. I took the time and gas money to drive 3 hours and then the
recording was not even used. That did upset me, and I would’ve added it if I could,
but I am so horrible with technology let alone editing videos.
As a whole, my project went well, I don’t
think that people worked as hard as we could’ve, but I take blame for not
making more of an effort.
