When I was in the seventh grade, I had problems behaving. My heart was in the right place, but I couldn’t always follow the rules. I played many tricks on my
schoolmates. Once, I even pulled a girl’s hair on the school bus to get her
attention. As a result, I was repeatedly sent to the office of the headmaster.
Although I hated going there, I did not hate the headmaster, Mr. Smith.
Mr. Smith was a kind, elderly man. When he punished me for putting some ants into a classmate’s pencil box, it didn’t hurt at all, but it did hurt my feelings. I thought so much of him and moments like that seemed to prove I was hopelessly bad. When I was called to Mr. Smith’s office for the sixth time, I had no idea what I had done. I felt disappointed as I walked down there. I went into his office, sat down, and looked at the floor. Then he said the last thing I expected to hear. “Kevin,I’ve heard you’ve been behaving really well lately. I want you to know how proud I am of you, and I just called you down to my office to give you a peppermint.”
“Really?” I was surprised.
“Yes. Now you can take that peppermint and go back to class.”
I carried the peppermint with me as if it was a gold coin. When I got into my classroom, I bragged（吹嘘）to my classmates about my turn around, excitedly. I wasn’t so bad after all.
Mr. Smith was really kind. He made me realize that I was just a kid who had problems with behavior. He bought some peppermints and took the time to notice me when I got something-anything-right. Mr. Smith gave me some hope by giving me some love. I will just remember him for the rest of my life.
