Mrs Chia and I have been a maid for 3E3 for the past few days ( maybe not the past few days but the past few days+ some other occasions during PC period). Picking up litters, sweeping the floor, clearing the top and tidying the cupboards, clearing rubbish underneath tables ...... the list goes on and on..

I begin to ask myself this question, "Why do we(Mrs Chia and I) have to do all these???" And the one and only answer is our dear boys and girls are taking things for granted. I always thought that by picking up litters myself, putting effort to make the classroom clean, care for everyone of u all would encourage u all to be alittle bit more responsible and considerate. But i guess it is just my wishful thinking.

So what do we get by showing empathy, giving leeway to our boys and girls and sparing a thought for their feeling?
We get inconsiderate, irresponisible and self-centered boys and girls? taking things for granted? testing patience? Our love, care, encouragement and kindness brought misery to ourselves? in other word, frustration and disappointment are the end products of showing empathy, giving leeway and sparing a thought for your feeling.

I am sick of telling what you all should do. IS not that you all dunno what is expected of u, the fact is u all noe wad is expected but simply refused to do it. Perhaps, thing would have be better for us if we are stricter; punish over the slightest mistakes, not sparing a thought for your feelings, embarrasing u all in front of others when u commit a mistake. i guess i cant answer this question myself. Perhaps, our dear boys and girls are in a better position to answer this question...

Frankly speaking, Mrs CHia and I are always proud of our form class. But after seeing things deteriorating over the past few weeks, i begin to have some doubt; how long can i be proud of my own class? Again, i can't answer this qns as well. I guess only time can tell...

I know most of u all have put in effort in certain things; studying hard for chem common test, working tog to decorate classroom, working tog during CNY celebration, putting in effort to complete the morning run as a class and many others things. I really do appreciate all these and would like to say "Thank You" to my dear boys and girls. But one thing that i am certain is that if you all are going to become an inconsiderate, irrresponisble and self centerred individual, we wont go far.....

* FYI, this post is not simply about cleanliness of the classroom. Instead it's all about 3e3 behaviour and attitude in all aspect... Reflect on your own actions.. *
