This is why I don't interact with teenagers

So, I've started studying on-campus again. It's something that I've thought of doing for a few years, because studying via correspondence really hasn't been working for me. So now I'm in a class with a wide range of ages, and I'm in the upper-half of the age groups.

Some of the girls are quite immature. I can see their group dynamics forming already, though we've only been in class for three weeks, and it's strange to know that at some point I had a place in a group too. But we were nothing like these girls. We had a mix of males and females, which made for a much less... bitchy atmosphere.

You know those people who say something mean, but in a nice voice so you're confused as to the actual meaning of the sentence? Well, we've got one of those. She also happens to be racist enough to offend even me, who mainly identifies as an Aussie, rahter than Russian-Australian. Then there's the followers, people who don't have an opinion, or personality, of their own, but sure are happy that they're in a group. Lastly you have the nice, quiet girls, who are in that group because they have no where else to go. They'll talk to other people away from the bad influences, but are otherwise ruled by the group dynamics. It's a shame, really, but as long as I can just stay out of it I'll be able to finish this course with no problems, even though I'm already sick to death of them...
