Students should teach politicians the basics

I was catching up with the latest headlines and a couple of things caught my eye. From a students perspective I thought I might dish out some advice to these politicians.


Politician number one; Ms. Sarah Palin

First, she is lashing out at Newsweek for its front cover which shows her posing dressed in running shorts. Excuse me Madame but don’t start complaining you did pose for the picture by the way (just wanted to remind you if you had forgotten). Secondly, she on Oprah telling the whole world that she would just ‘loooooove to run for president, but only if the circumstances are exactly right’.

Sarah darling if you actually want to get a decent chance at getting the presidency or getting any where in life you probably should start working and getting back to the politics game.

After all this she is going to be off on her book tour soon. Yes, a book tour. I never thought that Sarah actually read books let alone be able to write a book (I can’t wait to get my hands on a copy). I didn’t think politicians actually had book tours I thought their just had a campaign tour/bus, but I guess I thought wrong.

Palin got $5m (£2989000) for this book.

Politician number two; Mr David Miliband

David darling please stop over excising your charms. Your job is being our Foreign Sectary not being a heartthrob. One minute his telling us how his committed to Labour and Britain and the next his sweet talking anything with legs. We are taught in school that lying is bad. Better still we learn from intuition that if you’re trying to get away with something we should best try to keep your story straight take it form a student we know these stuff.

No wonder why Labour is a mess, one of their main man is off flirtting to half the population of the world.

Just a random question, why were you interviewed by Vogue by the way?

Politician number three; Mrs. Hillary Clinton

Hillary remember that your married the next you talk about a man. A piece of advice when deciding to have a crush on someone make sure they are not married. In school we learn to keep our crushes to our selves or to those closest to us not blabbing it out to anyone with ears even if your crush is ‘vibrant, vital, attractive, smart, young’ and his accent is irresistible. You don’t see me writing everywhere about my crush on Anthony Eden do you?

Are any of the things that these politicians have done in the past week under the job description of a politician?

In school we are taught that you first do your work and then you play but if the people who control the country (the people we are told to look up to) don’t follow this basic rule what makes you think us students will?

And this is why I think that politicians could learn a lot from us students.

Cuties get cash for conversion

What would you do if you read an ad for attractive, well-dressed women, under the age of 35 and over 5ft 7in tall to attend a gala dinner (obviously if you feel you fit the description)?

Well I would answer the ad straight away. Who would pass up an opportunity to attend a formal fancy gala and get paid in addition?

Not me that’s for sure and it seems to me alot of Italian women agree with me as well, as around 200-500 women responded to the ad.

To their amazement instead of a gala dinner they got a presence with the Libyan leader (dictator) Muammar Gaddafi (who was an hour late) and where subjected to a lecture from the Libyan leader about the benefits of Islam, and the role of women in Islam.

Add insult to injure they got € 50 (£44) and a free Quran.

I personally would have sued him under false advertisement.


#1 As female I find this insulting, why are only attractive, tall and under the age of 35 females asked? What about the rest of us?

And excuse me how do you define attractive? Is there a set model on how to judge ‘attractive’? Isn’t beauty in the eyes of the beholder?

Get my point about insulting.

#2 As a Muslim I am disgusted by this behaviour. Excuse me but we don’t need to pay people to convert to Islam they should do it because they feel like it’s the right religion. Why is there a criteria on who comes to this ‘gala’ and be preached to?

Islam is for all not just ‘for attractive, well-dressed women, under the age of 35 and over 5ft 7in tall’.

This is not just an unorthodox way of preaching but it insults women and Islam which I believe makes it ineffective and the preaching loses its point. I believe this is not the way to preach or try to convert people.

I think this was just some messed up publicity stunt by Gaddafi, its wrong but its worked, his got all the attention he needs.

It seems that his mission for visiting Italy was not to attend the United Nations summit on global hunger in Rome but to convert young Italian women to Islam or rather to feed his attention craving ego.

Sorry seems so right?

I feel so ashamed.

I would like to formally apologise to my readers (if there’s any) about not just the meaningless content of my blog and also my inability to blog everyday (or often).

I do feel like crap, I have let you guys down and myself as well. I can’t even keep a bloody blog going now tell me what does that say about me?

Stupid girl. That’s what.

=[

The blog has been very self centred, when there’s so much going on in the world, that’s more interesting!

I wanted to start blogging because one day in the future i wanna have a column in a national newspaper/magazine and i thought blogging would be a great way to start and get into the habit but now i have little faith in myself now..

But

I gonna try again.

Try harder!

With more meaningful contents.

So, what do you think am i worthy?

I am not UNDER-achieving!


It was my termly school report day today...
...it is apparently chance “for students with their parent to sit with the students tutor to reflect on the student’s current achievements and progress”

Delightful waste of a day.

After considerable talking about me we came to the conclusion that I am underachieving.

Yes you read right it did say underachieving.

This was a great shock to me because;
#1. I have NEVER being underachieving!
#2. I like to think I was overachieving because I have been working my arse out ever since September.
#3. I have no social life because of my school work.

But no, I am currently statistically underachieving.

Bull crap I tell you!

So now I have to have extra study sessions and lessons .In my free time.
Don’t get me wrong I do want to do well in sixth form and go to Nottingham Uni ... but its just NOT FAIR

=[ !

& what’s even more not fair is that some of my friends are getting worse grades then me but they don’t have to do this..
Kinda pissed off but my mum keeps telling me it’s for my own good [I know she is right but I’m a stubborn cow]

Oh the things I do for my education..!



P.S why is the school system so unfair?

if only?

Oh I feel so lonely and depressed right now ..

I don’t know what’s wrong it’s just I feel a bit low right now... I think its just that time of year cause I’ve heard a lot of people saying they feel like this as well (I’m not trying to validate my feelings here).

Its a bit stupid to feel the way I feel cause its not like I don’t have a great family or a good life cause I do [& I try everyday to thank god]...


But you know its just human nature to think and wish and say if only I was thin or if only I had no spots...

..OR my favourite one is if only I had Beyonce’s body =P!

What’s your favourite if only?

I try to put on a smile, & I know my life’s gonna get better [or I’m gonna feel better whatever you wanna say]




[I feel a bit better after writing this post... Thank youx]

Half Term = Work !

This week is half term in London.

A week of relaxation, fun and sleep. Then why I want to ask am I not having relaxation, fun or sleep!!

=[

Ill tell you why...

Because my very nice teachers have decided to bombard me with essays, projects and presentations. Basically loads of work to do during this week of relaxation.
Why are my teachers, the school and education bodies lying to me by calling this week half term, it should just be called work week really...


Tryna deluded me, I see through their lies!


I’m sure this is not fair actually, all this work I have to do.. I wonder if any of my teachers have as much work as me. Probable not. =@

A STUDENTS LIFE IS A HARD DAMN LIFE I TELL YA!!
