HUMAN RELATION
Have self control
Understand it from other people's point of view
Make other people interest your own
Admit mistakes
Never critise publically

Reason out don't argue
Explain thoroughly
Lead don't drive
Avoid sharp judgement
Take care of little things
Inform people on the matter affecting them
Offer helpful suggestions
Never forget to give re-inforcement for the job well done.

Little Mosonga!

When I was in Standard Six (Primary School Education), our English teacher (Mr. Chilemeji Wilson Mabuba) punished the whole class (canning!!!) for mixing capital/block letters with small ones in a sentence.

Fearing not to repeat mistakes which meant extra canes, I had to write with extreme care.
'Unfortunately' while constructing a sentence I came across the pronoun 'I' in the middle of the sentence!
No way, it was written in small letters as 'i' -to avoid canes!!!
Oops! It turned out to be another blunder of my own! Thank God, the teacher corrected me without punishment!
..................................................

As a Std V pupil I encountered an algebraic question in Mathematics which proved to be tricky and challenging. May be that's is why the question itself and its answer is still stuck in my memories since then.!!

The question was:

a/2 + 1 = a - 1
Tafuta thamani ya 'a'

(The answer is 4)
.....................................................

Just imagine. What is wrong if the multiple choice questions with small cases - a), b), c), d) are answered with capitals A, B, C, D?

My Form II Siasa* teacher (Mr. Maningu) gave me 'zero' for each of my correct answers put down as A, B, and D -instead of a, b, and d respectively -except for C where he gave me a score!

Eventually I scored a total of 56% in that terminal exam! (But had he given me full score for each question I got right, I would have scooped an A of 86%!)

NB: Students should be aware of these minor, 'hidden' and 'untold' instructions!!
To drop the deserved 30% because of 'carelessness' or 'ignorance' is suicidal especially in this modern and competitive world of academics!

punctuation marks matters!

woman without her man is a savage

woman without her, man is a savage

woman, withou her man, is a savage

friend: 'before, it was a man who would ask a woman (to dance), but now neither asks the other!'
