Also, when the narrator says Porphyria has her “utmost will” (line 53), it shows that she will be with him forever now that she’s dead.

What is my opinion on doing group projects. My opinion on group projects is that I do not agree with doing them. And I don't think that teachers should be required to do group projects. And the first reason to follow my opinion is that if you do group projects it will make the kids hyper and out of control and they will tear the classroom up.
