♥ rage @ principal
there are several things about the following article that just pisses me off.
my high school principal wrote it august last year..
and seriously? IT'S ALL WRONG!
okay, first of all, it's zonta award. not ward...
secondly, my sister's name is dilys. not delys......
thirdly, it is the zonta club of the perth northern suburbs.
fourtly, it was not a speech competition. in fact the competition process involved a forty minute interview and an application form with lots of questions about advancing the status of women worldwide.
next, the speech was simply so the rest of the club could get to know us - it had no part in the competition process... so no, it did not 'clinch' my position as winner..
actually, at club level the prize was $500US. and it went on to district level where the prize was $1000US, not national level with $3000US.... -.-"
at least she got the date right. and she probably copied and pasted the first paragraph from their website.
anyways my point is. throughout my high school life, i got very annoyed at my principal for several things. she wouldn't let me organise fundraising events, she wouldn't let me do this and that... she would just be a butt sometimes. she cared highly about school reputation... but how about the students? like actually caring about how they are and stuff. not just claiming all the glory when one student achieves something (and even then, not even having a good understanding of it)
so anyways. thats my rage for the day. i think my principal cared too much about her reputation and the school's reputation... she refused to let go of her pride for the benefit of her students. and i believe that principals should do whats in the best interest of their students... not of their own reputation.
on an ending note... TWOLA day today.
