Sorry, it was my fault.

[November 21,2021|Sunday]

Hello, kind readers and authors! What I want to tell all of you guys is what happened in our presentation. We have seven groups. I'm in group 3 and I have four group mates. I think my hard work isn't enough for our presentation because they all blame me. They say it was my fault. I don't know why, but for me, I do all my best for the presentation. So.. here's the story:

On Thursday morning, I published an article about the strand and course that I want to take, and I linked to the article I wrote about our presentation. That's why I rarely communicate with other users.

Our subject teacher gave us five days to work on our presentation and practice. I'm the one who was assigned to editing, and my other four members I actually don't know, but they say they write the other papers and answers that will be answered if our teacher asks about our presentation. I agreed with their opinion. On Monday, I started to edit the video and the template for our video. I was tired and tried i text our one member to help me with editing because I'm not familiar with editing and it's really hard to edit a video. She helped me and taught me other skills in editing. 

On Tuesday, I'm editing again and practicing how to present it smoothly to my subject teacher, and I'm always competitive about getting a high score because I know I'm doing well now and I don't feel pressured. We don't have a leader in our group because they didn't want it. I want to complain to them that we need a leader because it's nice if we have a leader to check on us if the other members are good or bad their doing. In the end, I did not complain about it. I don't want to argue because of these stupid things. Instead, I focus on my editing and practice. 

Wednesday came in and I was not finished editing our videos. I was nervous while editing the video and practicing the other script that my other members did. Thursday has come and I'm already done editing our videos. I updated my other members that I was done editing the videos and they replied to me, "good." I replied to their message with "Okay" and I decided to sleep for hours because I was tired and my eyes wanted to close and sleep. I'm always late sleeping because of my responsibility for editing. Sometimes I sleep at 12 am and sometimes at 1:30 am. 

Friday came and I did all the tasks they assigned me. So I texted our group chat that I was done with it. And they replied to me, "Sure, I'm not done yet." So I asked, "Why?" One member replied to my message: "it's really hard to write on bond paper and think about what answers will be written in the questions." My face changed into curiosity because it's really easy to do that task because the answer is already provided on our subject teacher. We need to familiarize the answers not to write on bond paper.

Because our subject teacher gives us hints or answers to the questions that she provides, my nervousness faded when I finally got familiar with the answer and how to present it. I texted again on our group chat if they were done with their task. So the nervousness that I felt was changed into an exciting feeling. They replied, "yes," and that night I reviewed my editing to see if it was nice. When I was satisfied, I checked it. I decided to sleep early.

The presentation started at 9:30 am. Because I'm in group three, our presentation got started at 11:20am. So I opened the link that my teacher gave us. I started to open the videos and present them. I was happy because my edited videos had been approved by my teacher, and she said, "nice editing, Ms. Glenah," and I thanked her. When I'm done discussing my point of view, our subject teacher questions us about the meaning of our topic. I was thinking if I answered it because I know that my other members know about those questions because they say they know the answer. When 2 minutes passed without an answer, I opened my camera and asked for permission to speak, and the subject teacher allowed me to speak. I answered smoothly, and our subject teacher gave me a smile.

When the presentation was done, our subject teacher gave us an individual score.I got a 48/50 score, and my other members got 43/50 scores. 

I thank my members for their hard work, but they tell me that I'm a favorite of my teacher, which is why my score was higher than theirs. So I explained to them that I was working hard too for our power point and videos that needed presentation, but they just said that my video editing was not nice and it was really poor. They told me that I should still help them even if I was done with what I did.

I apologized to them. And they tell me that it was my fault that their score was lower than. And before I replied to the group chat, they blocked me and removed me from the group. I was shocked because it's not a big deal, and I know they do their best for the presentation, but their actions are not labelled with their ages. They like immature kids. Okay, it was my fault.
