A couple of my friend missed the bus as they thought that bus departed at 1.30pm, so they went to have lunch till that late. They kept on calling me to get permission from lecturer whether or not to drive their own vehicle to the school. Regardless how many times they talked to lecturer, in the end they still couldn't get approval as we all have already known that we must be waiting at the bus stop right before the bus departs.
A quote says by unknown, “ if you are five minutes early, you’re on time. If you’re on time, you’re late. If you’re late, you’ve got a lot of explaining to do.”.
Therefore, punctuality is very important and it shows up a person personality in time management.
Today, i joined my friend’s group as Adam was absent to class. Her mentee was a boy and quite friend with us because we've been sharing the same table since the first day of class and chatting a lot to each other. As usual, we continued our work to teach them answering questions based on the PTS examination style by doing more PTS exercise paper. Meanwhile, Kin Boon seemed to be more closer with us as he dared to speak more to us and joked around with us. I felt glad that the relationship between mentee and mentos were not only senior and junior or student and teacher, it also could be friend.
In addition, my partner, Sin Hui and me prepared a note full of English grammar rules while he was doing his set of exercises. The reason why were we doing this is hoping that this piece of paper could help him for revision before sitting for examination and easier for him to understand in a short time. By referring to this paper, he got to answer correctly another set of exercise by himself without asking much help from us.
There was a small activity conducted by my classmates after revision session which four groups of students compete each other by giving more English vocabulary. All students looked very excited and participated themselves in the activities. The whole session was so lively. During the break time, I’ve asked Kin Boon about what he would do after graduating from high school. He looked so lost by shaking his head and telling me he actually had no idea to it. Hence, I tried to give some advices to him and told him the importance of studies where you will end up with shallow learning outcomes and more work on your plate in the future.
