9 Stations of Violations in CavSci

Anywhere, everywhere, we can find people who commit mistakes and sins. Many of us, teenagers, do sins everyday. Because we stay at school for the whole day, we often do sins at school. Though we are not in hell, we could still find symbols in school for the nine rings of hell. I chose nine places in our school where the violations which symbolize the sins are often done.

1st. Gate. This is the first place in the school where we can do violations and tell lies. Yes, not only violations, but also lies. In the violations, there could be two possible things a student may do. The first one is he/she did not wear his/her identification card. We sometimes forget to wear it at home, so when we go to school, we do not have any I.D. The second one is being late. Students reason out that they're late because of plenty of school works or they just woke up late. In the lies, when the monitor in charge at the gate asks us the true reason why we did the violations, we sometimes tell lies. We tell lies to prevent getting into trouble.

2nd. Comfort Room. Students in our school are not allowed to bring cellphones. They cannot use their phones at the classrooms, so they go to the comfort rooms to use their phones. It could be not as bad as I think, but it is still a violation. Bringing cellular phones in school is a violation. 


3rd. Library. In the library, the most common violation is when we make noises. Yes, it is a violation, but there is still another violation in the library. It's when some students take books out of the library without any permission. Students are not allowed to take any book outside, but some still disobey the rules. Another is when we scatter the researches. We do not take care of the alumni's precious researches. Instead, we put them everywhere, making everything a total mess.

4th. Pathway. Students always forget about this violation. We often do this, but we never realized that it's a violation. The violation is when we talk with our classmates and friends about teachers. We make gossips about terror, lazy and other teachers. I chose the pathway because it's a place where students do nothing but walk and realizes things about teachers.

5th. Gym. During flag ceremonies and flag retreats, we are required to wear the correct attire and to behave and obey everything the platoon leader says. But sometimes, others do not obey the rules. Some hairs are untied, some socks aren't white, some hairs are too long, some identification cards are not with them and some uniforms are not properly worn. Students oftentimes make fun of the leaders and commanders. We think that these things are only simple, but they are still violations.

6th. Canteen. No one will ever think that there could be a violation here. But honestly speaking, there could be. It's a violation seldom uttered by the teachers because it's impossible for them to think that students will steal. I know a few who do those things, so the canteen could be considered as a station. Most of us do not do it, but it does not mean that we can't.

7th. Teacher's table. When teachers ask some things from us, we are expected to tell the truth. If someone did something wrong, students are obliged to tell the truth. But because we're afraid to, we lie. We lie because we do not want our classmates and friends to get angry to us. If you are wrong, you sometimes defend yourself to lessen the trouble. We do these things for ourselves, not for the best.

8th. Classroom. It's a place where students can commit many, many violations. First, vandalism. We do not give importance to the things that are not ours. Second, disobeying the teacher talking in front. Students study to learn, so we should learn how to obey elders, especially our teachers. Another is eavesdropping. Though it's not a violation, it could be a sin to listen to others' conversation. Lastly, backstabbing or simply fighting with our classmates. We are grouped by section to have them as our family, not enemies. Instead of fighting at their back, we should tell them how we feel towards them.

9th. Seats. The simplest place where we can commit the worst violations. This violation is cheating. We all know what it is. Some of us already did it. It's when we copy or look to our seatmate's answers because we do not know what the answer is. This reason is the dumbest reason for committing a violation because it's no one's fault but yours, so we do not have the right to get answers from those who studied hard. This dumbest reason, however, leads to the worst mistake in school.
