But I don't believe in them....
I kind of used the wrong term there. They don't lack motivation, they're just lazy and want do it in the last minute. If they followed the plan I proposed, we would have finished like 3 weeks ago. Instead, I have poeple who ask me what they have to do ( which I told them like a million times), giving me some of the work they're suppose to do, and I have like no idea what they have done so fare. The deadline is tuesday btw.
Why am I always friend with poeple that are so wastly different from me?

Well at that point it all comes down to people just being shittier than you.
Also, I asked myself that question a thousand times, at some point I realized that there isn't anything you can do about it, but you can make use of it.

If you can't find people that truly feel like they are equal to you, or understand you in any significant way, then you should use your strengths to help them whenever possible instead, everyone is different and people are generally stupid in varying ways.
If the people you are working with don't hold up their end of the deal even after you set up a plan and told them what they need to do and so on, then that's their loss in the end.

At some point though, you'll encounter a person who finds it easy to understand you properly, someone you can instinctively rely on as much as they can rely on you, an equal.

In the last 20 weeks of working on my senior project, i know what that's like. It's myself, my friend and another classmate who are programmers with one designer. Over the last 20 weeks, our classmate has been similar at times where he'll wait till the last second to work on a part, or not do any work on it outside of the classtime given to us.

Nah, they're just young.
Those two girls should be quite familiar to you

I'm in a weird situation. Because technically, they should be better than me at this. I am really bad at writing in french, and I need their help to correct what I write.
I tried to explain that it's important to plan in advance and that the point of this project is actually to learn how to research a subject properly, and that's more important than the grade.
Guess they have to learn it the hard way some day.

New Personas for the whole party.
I stopped caring about skills and went for highest levels I could get in good/great affinity. I did the right thing, right?

It really is weird to think about how bad he was in the gutter nowadays. It's practically wiped from my memory
