The new school rules.

GRH.

It’s a controversial topic, one that we could debate to no end and no one is happy anyway. The main point for having uniforms are to be uniformed. A school, a whole entire student body as one, uniformed, disciplined, regulated, an organization under a higher authority.

We wear the same blue shirts with sewn on logos, and skirts with a slit in the middle, not because we are meant to look like we belong to the school. We are the image, the impression upon outsiders as they come to visit us. They expect disciplinary to be immaculately perfect, and the students to be hung on by thin threads on what to do. We are stringed up, a jumble of rebellious teenagers trying to have a say in things that we should have the right to.

We shouldn’t be forced upon rules that seem rather ridiculous just to form our school names. We do not need to miss a days of lesson just because we are not uniformed. The school is a place of education, a place where we learn to be someone that we forever wished to be. But how can we learn when little things such as low socks make us miss classes?

Disciplinary actions must be taken, and mind you, we are the craziest most unruly group of students who –most of the time-do not think before we act. However as the process of growing up helps us find a grip on life, we should be able to think and act rationally against higher authorities that are disrespectful and rude to us.

Sure, many students have disobeyed the rules, but surely they should have some dignity to give the students a better chance of understanding WHY we are to be disciplined like mentally challenged idiots, and not boss us around like thousands of retarded babies in a play pen.

We have been brought up in a high social standard society, and it’s our own human rights to act as we have been taught. There is no student council in high school because most students aren’t capable of taking on the responsibility of becoming a president, to make way for the rest to have a say in the school rules. That’s why we have been tied up, and forced to swallow everything without so much as a word.

Uniformity can be achieved in many ways. But through drastic measures and unreasonable motives, we are left to ponder upon the one who chooses to represent the student body and speak up, because apparently, we are not heard at all.

And, btw (:

I’m not a psychotic crazy school rebel :D

Hahaha. If you were wondering (:
