Head Girl?

Head Girl, it is the dilemma we face, as young and impressionable year eleven students.  Many of us are asking the question, "Should I try for head girl?". Me, on the other hand, sitting in the pavillion, while Jac mindlessly scrawled on my leg with black pen and Jasmine decided to use me as an arm chair, considered, "Wouldn't it be funny if I was head girl?". Alas, it most likely would be. I form my speech in my mind, as I would address the senior school, "Why should I be head girl? Well, because, I have a head and I am a girl. Everybody wins."

Im pretty sure by this stage, Mrs Ethell would have hastily ushered me off stage, while Mrs Mac would be giving me evils.

But, what really makes a head girl? Grades? Attitude? Teacher-student relations? Asianess? The ability to use large words and perfectly timed pauses?

Curly Hair?

Nobody really knows.

I believe it should be based on what the Head Girl can do for the school. Seeing how many students you can put in detention for wearing scarfs in assembly is not an example. It's about making changes, or as Gillard puts it "Moving Forward". Which we as Perth College students, hindered by the amish-style uniform, stockings and hair regulations and regular chapel, could not be anymore backwards. Maybe Gillard is on to something afterall.

Yes, it's about the policies.

If I was head girl, there would definately be some changes.

Policy One: I would bring cash back to the canteen. Who came up with the hideous card idea anyway? Here I am, a private school student without lunch. I have a few $100 notes in my pocket (Thankyou daddy!) and yet I cannot spend them. What else am I susposed to do with this money? Give it to homeless people? Save some puppies?

What is the world coming to?

Policy Two: Supply tissue boxes to every classroom! Here I am, sniffing away, sounding like a complete retard, resisting tempation to wipe the snot on my jumper because I have no tissues! Seriously, I pay $15,000 every year, I think I have the right to tissues! (Don't even get me started on the toilet paper!)

Policy three: Get rid of Open Day! I mean seriously, is it even legal? I couldn't think of a more stupid idea! Being forced to come to school on a sweltering hot day when your family get to party at home (Literally in my case, Open Day often falls on my Dad's birthday). And the year 10s get to show complete randoms around the school. What if they were pedos? or rapists? or Bible Bashers? And who in their right mind would trust year tens with strangers?

That would not end well.

In conclusion, these are my main policies, but of cource I have more, the genious brain I have is flourishing with wonderous ideas. Vote for me!.. or not.

No Seriously.
