Had an arg with XX yest (24 mar thur) over the proj. I came home fm church at ard 11pm n was so tired but still had to edit my part in the proj b4 sending it 4 printing. When i looked thru the entire thing, i realised she had done sloppy citations n actually left out 2 sources in the biblio.. she claimed to have taken a 'small' bit fm my part but when i checked, it was 4 quotes! our essay is not that long so how can taking 4 quotes fm my part be 'little'?? was pissed already coz o all this... so i sent her a curt sms asking her to send the missing stuff so we can print asap. Apparently she didnt like my 'tone' in the sms n called me to ask why i was so curt. Well i told her she was supposed to have completed her part but it was incomplete n i had to edit her citations for her! she got mad, saying i shd have told her earlier... hellooo its not an indiv essay where u do what u like, its a proj so all shd stick to a standardised format.. apparantly she thought it was alrite to submit an essay with very diff formatting in it. AFter some more heated words, she hung up rudely.. i was mad coz in my opinion, she was at fault for giving sloppy work n leaving out sources n yet she was shouting and even hung up on me..
my other fren in the proj settled the printing issue and then called me to tell me. feel abit guilty but the both o us then bitched bout her coz although we didnt say it earlier, we both were subtly annoyed at her passiveness, laziness and selfishness.. we lent her a whole sem's worth of lect notes but when we needed notes for 1 week, she said she cldn find them... n it was always us who offered to zap notes, email lecturers, buy food etc - she juz kept quiet passively... sighhh.. i pity my fren, she's gonna be stuck with her another year for honours while i grad soon..
anyway.....
After the argument with my fren, i decided to go online shopping and bought a new fragrance- Escada's Rockin Rio! hope to get it soon.. i thot i'd be mad for some time but about 2 hrs later i was Happy 
didnt know why, juz felt happy with my life, surrounded by pple i love and having so much more than i'll ever need...
Later in the evening, guess what? She sms-ed me saying she was sorry.. wow i didnt expect that from her, coz she sounded so unreasonable and angry.. well so i replied saying i was sorry too. So i guess its over, even though i know things wun really be the same. Given her char, she'll def not let it pass w/o any change in behavior to me.. whatever... i was thinking - this is my last sem in sch anyway and aft knowing her i really dun think her frenship is worth keeping... why in the world would i want an exploitative and spoiled person ard me...
