where's my banana?
i'm starting a wish list. top things pca needs to change:
1. kilts in wintertime. It's not modest. It's not sending a good image. it's not even humane. It's sending the image that your students are catholic ...girls... who are too stupid to wear pants. People who pass you in the street have no idea that there's a board of cotton-headed septagenarians who decreed that you MUST wear the kilt. They think you have options. and besides this is CANADA. It actually like, gets cold here sometimes. If you wouldn't let your cat out in this weather, don't do it to me!
2. anal spare rules. Relax! There are worse things in the world than a student who shows up seven minutes before the end and not five. Just like there are worse things than.. oh no! eating in spare! oh, the crumbs! the wrappers! lol maybe if you would let me leave spare to go eat, I wouldn't need to bring my food back. =p
3. Chapel. I think something's missing.. hmm what could it be.. oh! enthusiasm! guys it freaks me out how depressed the chapels make me.. i wish i could do something but there doesn't seem to be a way to get anything across.
4. impotent administration making anal rules left and right. It's so reactionary! holy crap! It's like they just wander around going "hey don't do that... please stop doing that.. OK THE NEXT PERSON WHO DOES THAT GETS A DETENTION". And they do that for EVERYTHING. It's inssane how many things you are specifically forbidden to do. The day they tell me I can't show up for spare except the first or last five minutes is the day i... wait. Crap.
They need to get at the root of the problem, whatever that is, and fix that. Trying to fix the problems this way is like trying to stop a leak by dropping one grain of sand into it at a time. And maybe the root of the problem is us... crazy, rebellious, mischeivous students. lol that's what you get for running a SCHOOl. Deal with it.Or at least talk to us... maybe we would be more reasonable with the random rule-breaking if they tried to address us like adults to be reasoned with and not monkeys to be caged.But they don't, do they? Just keep making more rules.
I hear they're ordering bars for the windows next =p

Whooooooooooooooooa there sister... SLLLOOOW DOWN! Haha, I can see you all worked up, especially after our discussions in history class... Care to let me address each point?
1. Yes, they're morons. Girls need pants. Seasonal uniforms for both guys and girls... it's the way to go... can we get a stupid petition going? Please? Someone? Anyone? Toria, how bout we start one? I'll help you out, even if I'm not a girl... haha.
2. Yes, spare rules are anal. Please... it's the one period where I should be able to make my own rules instead of having it dictated to me. It's annoying. Teachers have to get over themselves and all the power they think they have.
3. Chapel... here's my passion. I see the same thing you do. Now I feel like a real moron, because if more of us feel this way, why not do something about it? The solution you ask? Making chapel optional. They make chapel optional, and then only those that want to be there will go. Then what they need to do is use the Bible classes as an outreach to students to bring them into chapel, instead of making the Bible courses academic. Honestly, the way it's structured, for me at least, the Bible COURSES have had no impact on me whatsoever. You take them and make them the outreach, and every student in the school STILL gets a message, without even having to go to chapel. Then if you can light a fire under them, and God fills them with passion for Him, they can come out to the chapels, because it will be optional. Then you got a strong group of Christians in chapel to base the whole school around... is this not the greatest idea yet? HOW ABOUT SOMEONE LISTENS TO ME?!?!?!
4. Buncha chickens with their heads cut off... they have no exact rules. They need to make rules in collaboration with students. How are they going to give us rules that aren't practical? Come now... modest haircuts... nothing that's extreme. How do you define extreme? Andrew shaves a cross into his head, and it's wrong? If you can't promote Christ, what can you promote?
And not only did I hear about the bars for the windows, I'm hearing that we may also get a courtyard to lift weights, and sew to pass the time till our sentence, as in our graduation, comes, and we can move on. But don't quote me on that... it's just what I heard... Ugh... Let's fix this stupid system Toria... who wants to sign up?
