schools out!

now i know no-one reads this blog. BUT. i would like to say that school is a brainwashing corporate machine taken in by the media.
and i'm glad that i am now on school holidays.

now for a rant.... school is a place for learning, not a place for freethinking and expressionism (wow thats a word!?) as is evidenced by my "debates" with teachers over our silly library rules (no-one READS in the school library anymore, why CANT we talk?) and the incessant repetitions of instructions given to us just minutes ago when we ask a question as to why we cant do something other than what the instructions said. some will know what i mean while others will just be scratching their heads.

now for school assemblies. from discussing who'll be on the board of SRC (school representative council) to simply telling us what's happened over the last term, wev'e all had a school assembly. the only reason we have SRC is so the students can "feel like they contribute to the school" (obviously just showing up and PAYING them money isn't enough), but it doesn't matter, the teachers have the final say and if a student is hugely popular it doesn't mean they'll win - not if the teacher doesn't like them.
the only reason we have people who actually run for SRC is because it looks good on applications. being an SRC only matters to the person who is elected for it. nothing ever changes or is made better except for some lame school dances and pointless lunchtime activities.
