You see, I've learned how to play the game. I know the questions to ask, the emails to send. In previous experiences, if Blackboard says "due October 9" I know to complete that assignment. No matter if we discussed it in class or not.
However, in this class I constantly find myself "clarifying" information. I assumed the group leader position on our group speech, not because I wanted it, but because I'm not going to accept poor grades and I'm not going to let my teammates slack off.
I guess you could say that's it's my personality or even that I care too much. But quite honestly it isn't either of those. It's more or less that COMM210 is one more thing on my silly little BSU checklist before I can get my diploma and move on.
All this goes to say that sometimes, it's nice to find a class or task easy because you've been through the harder stuff first. Because I pushed off COMM210 until my senior year, I am more responsible and more professional. The class is not difficult for me, nor is it a waste of time. It is quite honestly one of the classes I find easiest to learn and also useful.
All this just to say that sometimes being the odd ball out actually give you the upper hand.
