Writing Tardy Gets Me Guilty

Today was achievement tests week, which for everyone is "we're too lazy to take it" test (sorry)
Today was also "too many tardy students" day.
I dont really mind being blamed for them getting PTCs because I write down their late marks and others, being the Proxy Secretary of the class, but what I really can't stand is the fact where they don't realize it themselves, the fact that they are late is because of them, only them. They come late, make up some lame excuse, and don't realize that they were late, for example, three times!? I mean shouldn't you realize it when the teacher announces that you were late? I mean what the hell...it was your own damn fault, I just write it down on paper. They should know me by now, I can't not do my duties properly. What seriously struck me the most, that made me cry, was when this one classmate of mine was shocked upon learning the fact that he was late three times today, yes today. You know what he did? He talked to his classmate about it. Can he change the Attendance? No, he can't. If he sees the flaw in the attendance record, he should go to me directly, maybe I'd feel bad and talk to the teacher about it so that he'll get excused for his late record.

I can't believe that I actually cried for him. Just because he was pissed. I believe that I didn't deserve it, the tear-shedding i mean.

The last class ended on time, and I always turn off everything in the classroom. While I was erasing the blackboard, I kept thinking about it non-stop, and there, my tears slowly started pouring. I tried hiding it because I was erasing the blackboard, meaning my back was facing the few students that were left in the classroom. When my teacher tapped my shoulder and told me to handle everything and lock the door, I faced him (tried not to.) He noticed and I saw my two of my friends who were came to my classroom saw me teary-eyed that I was trying to hide the tears and both asked what's wrong. I really felt bad for causing another one's distress because of what they did themselves. He said that it was okay and not to worry about them. I really felt bad. My teacher told me to walk with him and he told me stuff like it was their fault and you're not to blame. What he said really made me feel better, and I really appreciated it. Thanks Sir!
