Forget Pedro....vote for Courtney!

stinkerbell · 11-09-2005, 10:00 AM

Today my daughter is running for Student Council again. She has to give her speech, and then the school votes. She'll find out by the end of the day if she's made it.

She was on the Council last year and really loved it and worked so hard! I was incredibly proud of how seriously she took her job. She even went to a few PTA meetings (I don't go to PTA meetings!), and was constantly working on different projects.

So now that she knows what she'd be missing if she isn't elected...it's killing her that it's not her choice, that she has to be elected. She's super nervous.....and I am too. My stomach is in knots today and I feel sick!!

Adding to the nervousness.....last year after her speech, she tripped over the microphone cord, and knocked over the entire stand.

I told her about that Roseanne episode when Becky farted during her speech.....and that didn't help, just made her more aware of her bodily functions.

Poor kid!! I'd hate to be ten again!! So she's really paranoid about the speech today, too. My poor baby girl!

And here I thought this was gonna be about Courtney Love. I'd SO vote for her. Can you imagine the wackiness that would ensue?

Good luck to StinkerCourt!

YES!!! I was gonna post about that.....but couldn't remember where we were posting a year ago at this time!

We used the "procured" signs from last year again!!

Going to hell for sure!!

All Aglow · 11-09-2005, 10:09 AM

Oh I wish her the best of luck! I'd be tied in knots, too. I hope she gets it!!!

mamabot · 11-09-2005, 10:09 AM

OMG!!! I totally forgot abou tthe "procured" signs!

Good luck to Courtney. I am sure she will win in a landslide.

Gemini Cricket · 11-09-2005, 10:12 AM

I'd vote for Courtney.

stinkerbell · 11-09-2005, 10:14 AM

All of her friends are in the running, too, so it's that much harder. I remember a lot of tears after school on this day last year.

They only choose two kids from each class, and almost all her friends are in her class this year....it'll be really hard for people to choose.

She is going to Mt. Hood for four days today after school with a friend of hers, so if she doesn't get it, at least she'll be distracted for a few days.

*TinkPink* · 11-09-2005, 10:21 AM

Good Luck to Courtney!! I am rooting for her!

DMof2 · 11-09-2005, 11:48 AM

Go Courtney Go!!!

Hope she's elected Stink! Please keep us posted

I have seen that episode a million times and I still

I was in student council in 6th grade. I was excited that I was elected because my opponent was one of the popular girls.

*Vote for Courtney*
