Agreed +1Originally posted by Paperboat:my sympathy to you for having such a friend, and flunking your quiz. i think it's time u tell yourself she cannot be trusted.
then again, don't put all the blame on her. one shd be independent. the best way is always to depend on yourself, not others.
Originally posted by [S]tay:Like many have suggested, don't totally rely on her. If you're doing that, it's the own risk you'll have to take. If she can get hold of the right information it's your own responsibility to do so too. When in doubt, always source for more than 1 information source.

Well said KittynMeow.. i used to skip so many classes in Uni, but at the end of the day, if i didn't make sure that I had all the notes by asking someone to get it for me or printing it from the web. I deserve the pain.Originally posted by KittynMeow:just thinking: Why are you relying on your friend to tell you things about your studies?? thought these are things you should have paid attention to in class or taken note of yourself since you are the one studying for it?
If you've been skipping class and therefore had to rely on your friend, sad to say, i can only say you deserve it.

hey... take it easy. You din mention this part of the story and from your first post above, you gave the impression you had been depending on your fren for information more than once. and i was writing from the perspective of giving your fren the benefit of the doubt .... sorry abt any miscomm.Originally posted by [S]tay:[b]just for ur information, i called her, n found out tt she borrowed my notes n nv return me.....

n well if u say so..too bad lo.. i'll stop being so helpful........
no la// cos after my first post, i decided to call her n find out what raly happened....Originally posted by KittynMeow:hey... take it easy.

since this is the case, then your fren is not being responsible by not returning your notes.
In any case, think lesson learned is to keep track of your notes. Better to rem what you lent out rather than trust others to tell you what they've borrowed from you right??
