Too bad about your story. I didn't read it, so I can't comment on it, but I'd just like to assure you (maybe you don't need assurance, but...) that grades on creative projects don't mean shit. Don't let THAT phase you.

Other than that, I hope it gets better.

Why would you rewrite over a B? Thats not a terrible mark, just try not to get a bad mark on your next one..

what grade are u again pressure? If it's middle school to hell with it. If it's highschool tell ur teacher that ur partners are assholes, he'll put an end to that nonsense.
Life is run, it is dance, it is fast, passionate and BAM!, you dance and sing and booze while you can for now is the time and time is mine. Smile and laugh when still can for now is the time and soon you die!

you should get other partners, not the lame ones who always do nothing, i was one of those. we suck and should get bad grades cause we fucked up! i did. but i'm done with school so WEEEE
oh and yeah, really tell your teachers about your partners not doing anything, use teachers, tell them stuff and they'll like you. end of message.

I'll teach you something I learned in first year university about group work: Establish yourself as the head slacker.

This means if I was in a random group, doing an assignment (even if I was actually passionate about it) I would just pretend like I didn't care at the first two meetings. Saying things like "yea whatever we can just shamble it at the end" etc. This makes people think you are unreilable, so they won't give you the bullshit tasks. Then at the end, you can redeem yourself by suggesting you all get together to edit the final work, where you take over because everyone else in your group is borderline retarded and you don't know how they got into university. They've already done the grunt work, and as bad as it is it's easier to go over that shit with some polish than to have done it all yourself.

What you don't want to do is establish yourself as the keener, because you'll get taken advantage of and no one will appreciate the work you're doing. There has to be one of each in every group, you want to be the slacker.

ok i feel better
i went to the bio teacher and showed him my project
he said it was 'beautiful'. and i think that means A

my bio partner and i plaeyd tic tac toe since we were basically done. i feel pretty bad since i did all the work but whateva the A+ is worth it
global project I think we did pretty good

and im working on my english now im getting a fucking a LETS GO

chill i dont think your advice applies, its just this one partner is retarded
usually my classmates are super focused on getting an A and doing good in school so it's usually good. if i get another shit partner i will come back to you though
