Group projects are the absolute worst. They are nothing but an excuse for a teacher to suspend learning for an extended period while students keep themselves occupied with the internal social dynamics resembling gladiatorial combat that group projects bring about. Weeks upon weeks are wasted while the teacher gets to browse Facebook, and that's before the disaster that is "Presentation Week." The entire week of presentations is a sadistic purgatory. You hope that you don't have to present first but simultaneously would like to pass through the fire and get it over with. Plus, if you're like me, you took a gamble that you wouldn't have to present the first day and left the polishing touches until the last minute, hoping to refine the final draft over the course of the week. If you're also like me, this has bit you in the bum more times than you can count.
