Course dropped

I had a new course that began a few days ago and it was a continuing course of another one that I recently passed. Anyhow, the workload seemed very heavy in relation to the ECTS credits one would obtain by taking it. We were however asked to form groups the first lecture, and I ended up with my Norwegian friend J, a Spanish girl and an Austrian guy (who had blood running out of his nose). I told my colleagues that there was a possibility that I would drop the course due to the heavy workload, but they insisted on having me in the team anyhow, accepting that I might contribute less than the others. We received this e-mail from our Austrian colleague on Thursday:

hey...

i'm sorry... but i'm forced to quit the course because i can not write the final exam. In the first week of february i am on a workshop and it does not really make much sense to put so much effort in a course when i may have no possibility to write the exam.

best wishes

... And then, shortly after that I received this hilarious e-mail from the Norwegian guy:

Okey... Now, what do we do? I'm not going to be able to write the whole case by myself!! I was even sceptical about writing half of it... Fuck. That little whore teacher. She should have given us some time to plan. Like a couple of weeks...

... And three hours later this one:

Faen. Jeg dropper kurset... Brenn jævla X hora! Jeg orker ikke å lese så mye for å få 3 ECTS... Det er ikke verdt det! Jeg får heller ta et ekstra fag hjemme i Norge. Så da sitter M igjen med sin egen gruppe! Haha. Stakkars...

Those of you who understand Swedish/Norwegian/Danish can probably see why I find this story funny :).
