There have been a lot of people, including myself, who have been breaking a bunch of the rules at school. Things like showing up late for in-dorm time, church, chapel, floor meeting, community group (sometimes only a minute or two), or just not going at all) quiet time, wearing sweats in class, etc. Now, the majority of people see these as little, insignificant, rules, but they are rules nonetheless. We were told at the beginning of the year that, although we may feel that way, it is our choice to be here. We know what the rules are before we come here and if we don't like them, we don't have to come to this school. If people think they are just "little" rules, why don't we just follow them? Sure they may seem to make life inconvenient at times, but they truly are in place for our benefit. Even if we don't normally have to follow these exact rules, there will be rules in work places and in life in general that we have to follow no matter how much of an inconvenience they may seem to be.
