A Rusty, Paradoxical Mind™

It's that time of the semester again, grouping for assignments.
And of course it's the time where it's every man for himself.
Why isn't it compulsory to have only individual assignments in the undergraduate programme?
I would prefer that, thank you very much.
There ain't no pressure at all.
I get to choose when the hell I wanna start doing my assignments.
And the best part, if my marks is not of satisfactory, I only have myself to blame.
Instead of the usual, pointing and badmouthing behind the scene.
