Tonight at college, I was elected as Student Representative for our class. I’m not sure quite what this means or entails – it probably sounds far more important than it actually is.
Oh, and “elected” is probably a misnomer. It was more a case of:
Eric (tutor): “You all need to nominate a student representative.”
Students (as one): “Graham. He should do it.”
Eric: “Fine.”
Graybo: “muh?”
Actually, I’ve already been told by my fellow students what I should do if I get the opportunity – go to a meeting, get bolshy (which I’m good at) and demand a good student bar. Give me the chance, and I’ll gladly oblige.
