I’m taking social class
in my school as my major, and I have a fun class although some teacher dislike
our class because a few person in my class get into trouble with the teachers
often. Most of the person who get in trouble sit at the back of the class so
they often sleep in class or maybe skipping class sometimes. Basically from all
of the social class my class is the most popular class among the teacher. But,
actually my class is quite a good class. It’s only 3 or 4 people who likes to
make noise or getting into trouble with the teachers and because of that the
teachers dislike our class which I think is not a wise action. As a teacher
they should understand this simple problem and must know how to deal with them.
At first I also think
that they who likes to make trouble is the bad guy at my class.But I still try
to socialize with them and later on I found out that they also smoke and drink
beer or something like that and it makes even worse impression on them. But
still unlike some of my friend who become “anti” to them, I try to know them
some more, I still joke around with them without getting influenced by their
bad behavior. In the mid term their score is below standard and the teachers
warned them that if this continues they will have to study one more year in
Senior High School 2. Actually this is not the first time teachers warned them.
In this term which is
the final term I found out that they are not a real bad guy. I realize this
when we’re having exams and the teacher seated me at the back. I know that
these guy can’t do a single question and from my experience, my friends will
definitely look at my answers or maybe ask me directly without any doubt. But
they don’t. Even when I ask them if they could do it or not they answered
“Nevermind, just do yours we are fine... we will try to figure it out later.”
When the teacher are not looking I try to help them because I know they will
not be able to figure it out. I only manage to help them with 1 question. After
the exam they all say thanks to me like I just saved their life from a disaster
even that they know they will not pass the exam with just 1 correct answer.
Later on, I’m interested
in getting close with them and I found out another thing about them. I found
out that they have a big intelligence in particular thing. One of them has
started a small business by selling football jerseys, bags, shoes, etc. Another
one is working in a Computer shop and is good at programing, there is also one
who make money from selling car’s accessories. And their personality is good,
although sometime they use rude words. I manage to be a good friend with one of
them who’s good at computer thing and he plan to study abroad, so me and my
friends help him to study although we ourselves are not an expert in school
sudjects and his achievement now is getting a lot better. He never skip classes
anymore and his score is now in the standard.
What I’m trying to say
here is, when someone don’t give you a good impression don’t just judge them as
bad guy or something like that, don’t be anti to them, answer them when they
ask something, explain when you know something that they don’t. If they smoke
or have another bad habit just warn yourself and strengthen yourself not to
follow their habit, it’s all about choice anyway. Maybe me and my friends just
manage to change one person and he’s not fully changed, but at least he become
better than what he used to be. I never say to him to thank me or give me
credit from helping him or anything like that. Watching him having a better
score and is happy with what he achieve is a really satisfying thing for me. If
me and my friend can make someone do better imagine if we all can do the same,
how many people can be better? And it will make the world even better someday.
In conclusion "Everyone Can Start a Change, At least for Themselves"
