Marking Day 2 - P.I.S.S.E.D.

Observe the 180deg change in my attitude towards interhouseactivities now. Yest I was bubbling full of excitement; today I'm am just bitter.

I really dont see the point of IHC. I mean the people who play it all seem to be the same group of people huh. And what's the point of the house comm? They cant get the list of ppl in the house and their interests/abilities, neither can they organise sufficient people to go for the activities, neither can they even turn up for their own events! All you cbks who just want that pretty post to look good on your fucking testimonials... You are like sorta placed up there with the councillors and kinda above the rest of the ccals it seems? Maybe it's just me and my disillusionment with the "leaders" but it really seems to be that way. The whole frickin house comm gets to go for the ccal camp and stuff, EVERY single one. I'd probably have nothing to say if it was simply the captains and vice captains. Gosh. But every one of you housecommies. I think my whole team has way more leadership potential and sense of responsibility than some of you people. Wannabes!

I'm honestly miffed. I see people putting in way more effort than some of the house comm yet they say they put in alot of effort. WHERE?! I DONT SEE IT! Ohhh sure the pretty banners and decorated pillars and whatever other decorations... But honestly, are those things NECESSARY? Perhaps the most important thing about a house comm should be to stir up the interests of the house people and getting information abt activities to them! Posters that dont provide details ARENT GOOD ENOUGH. Neither is pasting up several sheets of information just so near the dates... But then again, I guess I could say that this applies to hoki too. After all our interhouse floorball and hockey werent too greatly publicised seeing how time was extremely limited. But hey we still got people. And we identified the problem and this time we're gonna go word of mouth instead of just posters for the interclass... We try see? Maybe youhousecommies are too, just kinda not visible?

I think this rant is probably just a result of an unfun ihc day which I had to crawl outta bed for, followed by a really useless ccalworkshop with a public speaking WORKSHOP that seemed more like a PUSH to join a certain club in the school, and finally the macritchie run with my babes. The run was good of cuz, so's the ache. But the thought of having to run 100m tmr and 800m and probably interhse 4x1 and intercca 4x1 pulls me down a whole load. I don't like underperforming or just knowing I can basically do better.

I guess the school's lack of support for the house system has really much to do with the obvious lack of success of the house system. But as ell y said... Life's never easy huh. Too bad. My life's not easy, why should yours be?

Free shipping BOTH ways on Headphones, Yellow, from our vast selection of styles. I am going to start by saying the Conair's Infant Sound Machine & Relaxation Clock Radio, model SU7 is marketed as a baby sound machine but it is nearly identical to a more expensive model that is marketed to adults that has less features.
