those were the days... URGENT
9:18 PM
Dear 109,
THANK YOU FOR TAKING THE THINGS ON MY TABLE OR IN MY PENCIL CASE WITHOUT MY PERMISSION.
In case you haven't realised, the things in my pencil case are MINE. I would appreciate it a lot if you all would stop taking my pens from my table or from my pencil case and using it (e.g. today someone used it to fill in the Math groups things and DID NOT RETURN IT PROPERLY. I had it passed to me and the person didn't even ask me.) This is very, very irresponsible and inconsiderate. I am not a stationery loaning station and I don't see why you can't just walk a few steps back to your own table instead of grabbing and random poor person (aka me and a lot of people at the front)'s belongings. This is very annoying and this is not the first time as I have actually experienced this before. My marker was taken out of my pencil case without my consent and I thought I lost it. Then I bought a new one and then I found it at the white board two weeks later. This is seriously wasting my time and my money and I hope that you can be more responsible and considerate to others' belongings. This has not happened just to me but also to Wen Qi as well. Her markers have been taken out of her pencil case to write announcements and somehow it was never returned and we always find them at the whiteboard with their tips pressed completely flat. I cannot believe that this is happening in 109 and I hope this will stop. I don't mean to sound so awful but I cannot tolerate anybody taking or stealing my things (taking without returning is considered stealing too). I say this not only for myself, but only the behalf of the whole class. If you think you really need to use a pen so often and you need to grab it from anybody's table and not walk a few steps back to your table, then keep a pen in your pocket. Please spare some thought for the people who buy their own pens and not for the class. And if you really need to write announcements so often, then buy your own marker. You can even have a stationery box for the class which is not my box. Apparently, my box has had the same function for the past term. If I change seats, I don't want the future occupant of my seat to suffer the same fate. This has been getting worse this past term. People can just pick pens off the table and even return it to the WRONG PERSON. I think that the pen is taken, use to write and passed around to everyone who is there trying to fill in their names. Next time, if you really need to use anybody's pens, you can just ask. You don't have to cause the owner to waste so much anxiety and worry. Some people have only one usable pen and if you take that, that person can't do her work. I think I have made myself rather clear, but for any clarifications you can always come to me. This is seriously WRONG and I hope that whoever did it will not do it again. Thank you very much for your attention and I hope that this problem can be rectified as soon as possible.
Yours sincerely,
Teo Jue Luo, Melinna (26) 109
