Seriously..

I think my patience is at its limit.

I wish everyone would be... more into what they're doing. Everyone wants good grades, but nobody is willing to work for it. Like, I live pretty far away from Damansara myself, but I still make the effort to drive there on my own to get measurements and pictures, and all everyone does is ask it from me. We didn't get the full measurements for the plans and front elevation, and I took the effort to sit and stare at the picture for hours, or ask my Dad, just to get the closest measurements, and everyone just says "Send it to me when you're done, thanks.". I take the time to meticulously draw every bit of detail of the elevation according to scale, and they say "Let me photostat your drawing."

The problem is not that I mind sharing, but everyone is beginning to take it for granted that they can just get what they need from me, without having to do anything.

And this is not the first time. Because everyone knows I usually don't say anything.

We had a presentation today, and the original plan was to gather early and arrange everyone's part of the slides together. But it turns out everyone just shoves their pen drive at me, and I'm supposed to proof-read and compile everything while everyone sits around talking. I even did the slides for another person in the group. With the sole reason being "Cause your English is so good". They make it sound like speaking fluent English is a talent, rather than a skill you acquire through practice. That seems to be their excuse for not even bothering to try speaking it. Once, I had to sit and listen to a friend explain her design in Chinese, while I type out the correct sentences so she could use them in her presentation.

I'll tell you this; I'm tired of speaking in Chinese. It annoys me sometimes, that I have to be forced to conform to suit everyone.
