I think that creativity is inborn. You cannot learn how to be creative as it is a skill that you have in you and not something you can learn. If you don't have it means you don't have it. But then again, there are some exceptions. Sometimes creativity can be learned like a talent. Maybe at first you are not creative, but with perseverance and determination, you can become creative. Like many people say, it can be motivated by others. So from my perspective, either way is possible and never give up hope if you are not creative. It can be nurtured along the way as you grow up.

To me courtesy means to say thank you, excuse me, please and sorry. There are many cases when people don't. For example when you knock into someone, instead of saying sorry, you blame the person and tell them to watch their way rudely. When there is someone blocking your way, instead of saying excuse me, you push and shove the person away. All this can lead to commotion and isn't it much easier to be courteous? Choping tables with tissue paper is okay I guess, but sometimes it does not really work . For someone like me, if I see a pack of tissue paper on the table, I will simply just ignore it and sit on the table. The pack of tissue paper could be anyones. It could be the people who were sitting there before. I wonder why people do not seat on the seats choped with tissue paper, is there a rule that people obey? If there is, why can't people just obey the law? If you are late, can't you just explain the reason why you were late, before coming you go to your seat. Even if you were admonished by the teacher, it will still be better than when you sneak into class and the teacher finds out. So you must be thinking, if I sneak into class, there is a 1 in 99 chance that the teacher would not notice. But it is a very slight chance, what more the teachers are not that blur to not notice a student that had popped out from nowhere. I think that we should be more courteous so that we can live in a better society.
