Homecoming 2006.

This past Friday was the homecoming dance and pep rally, which made no sense because the game was on Saturday. Now I may not be the smartest person in the world but isn't the whole purpose of the pep rally to get the team players hyped up and energies for the game? If this is true then why was it on the Friday, did they really expect for the feeling to carry us from 2:00 p.m. all through the dance, while we slept, on the bus ride all the way through to the game almost 12 hours later? Yeah, not likely. With that "well thought out" plan being brought to the light, lets talk about the dance.

Student were expected to come to a DANCE and were not permitted to dance. Yes, another great idea, most likely brought to you by the same people who planned the pep rally. It was said that our dancing is " Just like having sex with clothes on" as portrayed by Ms. Kirby. Well aren't you glad our clothes are on? If you had a choice of us A. Dancing like we do, with our clothes on, or B. Us just leaving the dance and getting straight to the intercourse, you would choose A. Obviously May be wrong , but when you were kids, didn't your parents hate the dances you were doing? And didn't you feel that they were appropriate? If so, then why must we continue this useless cycle of trying to prevent young adults from expressing themselves the way that they enjoy? Heresy the deal if you are going to charge high schoolers $10 to come to a school function then who are you to regulate how they use what they have just payed for? In my opinion the dance this year was more of a expensive conversation. If your going to raise prices, double what they were last year, then you can atleast put in a half decent effort to make it more enjoyable this year.
