Our schools award night. Not so much the celebration itself but the activities that transpired tonight. Not personally I have never been, I know, I know "whoa easy there tiger, who are you to criticize what you haven't attended" but there is reason why I don't go.
It is because I can't be put on the stage to have a room people silently judging you because someone got more "awards" than you did. And mainly the fact that I find it, how you say, BORING. I have considered, from time to time, actually going to it because a good comedian researches his material, but then my super powers that allow me to detect boring or "Harry sense" kick in and keep me away.
Now, here is my problem with what’s wrong with what happens. Year 7 dance... why? This is wrong. Does anybody remember what the first year of high school is like? In primary school they are like kings and queens of their school, and then they come in to the new school and are scared and friendless. Then by the end of the year they have made new friends and have gained confidence... then the dance comes in just to knock them back down again. It is embarrassing about 80% of them don't want to be there, and 95% don't want to be on stage. And I can assure you 99.99999% don't want to get on the freaking stage and dance. Is this a cruel way of putting them in their place or just making them dance for our amusement.
This second problem is specifically to do with tonight is the captains. 2 girl captains and a guy deputy. Now I'm not prejudiced in any way. I'm not sexist and I know nothing about politics but I'm not sure that's how it worked every year we have had a guy and a girl captain. And a girl deputy. I was under the impression that that was the way it was meant to go. With the exception of there being able to be a guy deputy but the guys just not being that great. So here I am trying to figure out why this happened this year. I'm starting to think that this is just a twist like in a new series of "Big Brother". Who knows maybe next year the captains will be bipolar lesbian twins who swap roles with each other every week (that might have been an over reaction).
Anyway that's it for today folks. I hope you share my views on this wonderful occasion. And not spit in my face and tell me I'm stupid. Now that you excellence has been celebrated I hope you enjoy the holidays. Now excuse me while I bath in the joys of not going.
