During CAS period, I and my friends went to take care of flowers and other plants by collaboration in back yard of school. Vijayalaxmi Ma'am led us to do proper work for gardening. It hasn't been cared for a long time because of our long vacation. So, there were a lot of works which we should do for them.
At first, our real effort and work was required a lot. We had to dig dried ground and dig up all weeds which was disturbing our plants with tools. By trying to do it, I could get new ideas which I cannot get easily in any work. Then, we thinned out rotten plant, fruits, and dried flowers/stems. Even, I could try to use cutter! When we had took them before, they were so small. There were no grown plants. That's why we couldn't know what those are. But, now, we could identify which plant is what. There are tomatoes, eggplants, kind of a mum, and so on.
After digging them up completely, we had started watering. I hoped it could give them be moistured enough. But, I cannot but worry them again because we would have a long vacation. So, we couldn't care them properly. I hope rain would come for sometime. It could help them alive.
In fact, I don't like gardening much. However, after starting our school gardening, it gives me some ideas which kinds of materials are needed, what could I do for them, etc. The most important thing is it makes me getting responsibility for caring them. It's very good for me to realize the responsibility. When we realize it and have it, we could do more and better. Afterwards, I expect they would give me another mind/thinking which I have to realize to live gently with other people. Of course, I'd always attend to others' voice as well as their conditions.

Hi Dasom,
It is quite admirable that in spite of your claim that you are not too fond of gardening,you have shown such wonderful results. I totally appreciate the energetic and positive work that you display during gardening, including the careful way you handle the plants shows, your concern. I am happy to know that you have learn to be responsible from this activity. That's one of the positive outcome of CAS. It teaches us about being responsible and developing maturity in handling responsibility while pursuing any activity.
Keep up the good work.
Vijayalaxmi Ma'am
