I’m so sick of getting in trouble all the time for no real reason. There has not been one day this week that I haven’t been in trouble for something and I’m so sick of it. On Monday I got laps for being 1 minute late to turn in my phone for study hall. I also got laps for not checking out for Halloween night even though I was explicitly told that I didn’t have to and I let a dorm parent know I was leaving. Then I got laps when my alarm didn’t go off and I was late for breakfast. Why is someone there with a lap sheet every time I mess up? It’s not like I’m deliberately trying to break the rules or inconvenience the dorm staff. There should be a difference between making a mistake and knowing what is expected of you and ignoring it. I have never skipped class or been more than 2 minutes late, I’ve never set out to hurt anyone or myself, I always volunteer and don’t argue, and I’m where I’m supposed to be when I’m supposed to be there. I do well in school and fulfill my duty as a leader by helping others and setting a good example. It doesn’t make me want to keep that up when no matter how good I do I’m still punished. If I’m in trouble the one time I mess up where is my reward for all the times I do the right thing?
