My Home Life and My School Life

(Below is just a sample,
as a PSIC student,
you have to write in the IT perspective for this topic)

There is a lot of ways that my home life is different from my school life. Every student takes some time in school, and the rest at home. School life is very important for our upbringing; it is not just spending time for study. During class, I don’t just learn by myself, or just listen to the teacher. Sometimes I am not sitting alone but in a table of four. We discuss in small groups, sharing ideas among ourselves.

After then, the whole class will share their thoughts under the direction of the teacher. It is just like a small community which is quite different from home where we have only parents and a few brother or sisters in a close setting.

When I am in my house, during the weekdays, after I come back home from school, first I finish my homework, then I check my e-mail in my computer, play with my little sister, chat with my family, watch television, eat my dinner, study for tests or quizzes, and then I go to sleep. It can be seen that my home life is quite simple and individual in comparing with school life.

School, this small community, gives me not only knowledge in books, I also learn to be social, to work with others, including classmates, other students, teachers, and the administration. At home, I don’t need to keep alert because I know that every member in my family is close to me. Sometimes, family members might quarrel, but it is quite different from quarrels at school where we learn discipline and tolerance. However, we should learn how to forgive others, just like we forgive our brothers and sisters. This kind of learning will make us become good citizens.
