The Six Common Sins in School

          School. Our second home. The place where our knowledge is hammered and forged to guide and help us in our lives. A place where we spent almost one-fourth to one-third of our lives. But not only good things are learned in school. Bad things are done by those students who are not responsible enough in studying.

          In our school, bad things are committed by some students too. These are just some of the bad things but they are the major ones. So let's have a look on the students that do these bad things and the consequences in doing it.

FIRST TRIANGLE: THE LATES

          After entering the school gate, THE LATES are spotted. They have committed the sin Tardiness. They are aligned in rows and are being punished by the PE teacher and a very strict disciplinarian, Sir Tom, by scolding them about discipline and how it can help in improving an individual. Here, we can see David, who woke up late because of watching late night TV shows. He didn't studied a single lesson last night.

          After being punished by Sir Tom, David now goes to his classroom and the second triangle.

SECOND TRIANGLE: THE LAZY STUDENTS

          David enters his classroom and sees most of his classmates cramming for assignments. They are THE LAZY STUDENTS. David joins them for he don't have assignments too. Their moves was fast and accurate for they know that they have limited time. And while everyone is busy, the guardian of the triangles appeared - the Teacher. As their punishment, they are to clean in their respective areas and David is assigned to clean the plant box.

          After cleaning, they returned to their classroom and continued their first subject. David sits at the dark side of the room, the third triangle.

 

THIRD TRIANGLE: THE COPIERS

          The teacher gave a surprise quiz. David didn't study so he don't know how to answer the given problems. He saw some of his classmates who didn't study too looking on the answers of those who know the answers. They are THE COPIERS. They copied every answer of those responsible students that know the answer to the problems. David imitated them and he copied too. The Teacher saw them and as their punishment, they received a zero on their quiz.

          The quizzes are now checked and scores are being dictated. Then, David noticed something about the dictated scores.

FOURTH TRIANGLE: THE FALSE SCORERS

          David noticed some students, including his seatmates, that dictated scores a lot higher than their true scores. They are THE FALSE SCORERS. They always change their low scores into high scores for them to have higher grades. A responsible student told the teacher about their doing an as a punishment, they received a zero score on the quiz too, and responsible students are made to sit beside them for them not to do the deed again.

          The first and second subjects are now over and is already recess. David goes to the canteen and on his way back, he saw another sin.

FIFTH TRIANGLE: THE BULLIES

          David saw a big male student forcing a smaller male student to hand over the smaller student's food or he will be beaten up if he refused to the order of the bigger student. The bigger student is one of THE BULLIES. They think that because they are big and strong, they can get whatever they want whenever and wherever they want it. The Teacher saw him and as a punishment, he is scolded by the Guidance Counselor an the bad thing that he did will be written on his records.

 

SIXTH TRIANGLE: THE CRAB MENTALS

          David returned to his classroom. The Teacher grouped their class into six groups and had a group activity. After a few minutes, one group is already done. David's group asked them to help them understand what to do but they did not pay attention to them and just kept on chatting. They are THE CRAB MENTALS. They think of only themselves and would do anything just to be on the top of the class and be higher than others. The Teacher learned about this and as a punishment, deductions are made to their score.

          Class hours are now over and the students went home. David arrived home early and ate his dinner. After eating his dinner, David rested for a while then did his assignments and studied his subjects. He had a lesson that studying hard is the key to have good grades and not committing sins.


          Committing a sin is not bad. You just have to repent on he sin that you did and promise to do your best not to commit the sin again. It is only natural for a person to commit sins, for humans have the nature to sin. Sins do not state if you're going to Heaven or not. It is the repentance and penitence that you did for your sins.
