Goldilocks is never satisfied

I'm sure you've heard of the story of Goldilocks and the three bears. And you know her, nothing is good enough for Goldilocks and she leaves a mess wherever she goes.

Well, I have one in my school.

Goldilocks never mentioned any of her ideas for our performance, but all of a sudden she launches shit loads of ideas at us, she totally caught us off-guard. We were outraged. She totally changed our performance 180 degrees.

But I've grown immune to her antics a long time ago and I closed one eye. If I'm an actor, I have to learn to work with different people right?

BUT THEN. I HEARD SOMETHING UNFORGIVABLE FROM HER. Here's what happened

Because I have 2 juniors, X & Y performing a movement piece on the stage. X is fantastic while Y looks extremely awkward on stage because he's a bit shy and a bit new with the movements. My drama instructor thought Goldilocks would comment on it and was just about to explain when Goldilocks blurted on the ugliest sentence ever:

"That boy over there, can change to a slimmer one?"

I was appalled by her ugly, terrible words. She doesn't even have a good figure so she is in no position to comment on Y's size.

SO WHAT IF Y ISN'T SLIM?

He is just painting a box in a dramatic fashion!!!

NO LINES. NO CHARACTER. JUST PAINTING VERY DRAMATICALLY.

He is not playing the roll of a skinny person. JUST PAINTING

Why does he have to be replaced just because he is overweight? If he is going to perform for SYF 2011, will you pull him and the other fat performers out? If he's going to be an emcee at an assembly, will you rip him off stage and have a wafer-thin student replace him? By actually requesting to replace him solely on the reason that he is fat, you are sending a message that it's not okay to be fat, when you have staff and students that are overweight.

YOU ARE SUBCONSCIOUSLY PROMOTING HATE SPEECH!!!!!

You are implying that people without perfect figures cannot be allowed on stage.

We have fat teachers, why not she fire them and replace them with fit/muscular/wafer-thin teachers?

We have other fat students too, why not expel them or shove them into a dungeon when guests visit the school?

Soon maybe she's going to find the thin students an eyesore too and force them on protein diets and intense gym workouts so they can build muscle mass. (I will have to run for my life then, because I'm underweight)

Then she's gonna use hammers to force the buck-toothed student's teeth back to normal.

And while she's at it, she'll have ugly students wear masks to cover their faces, since we have insufficient funds to pay for their plastic surgery.

FACE IT GOLDILOCKS, PERFECT PEOPLE ARE RARE.

I have lost my last lingering thread of respect for Goldilocks.

I can overlook her inability to park her car properly.

I can overlook her often bad decisions.

I can overlook her fashion sense.

I can overlook that she's not the best person.

But I cannot overlook what she said

Someone with a position like her should be gaining the respect of the students, but her actions make us despise her.

We are getting an award for Centre of Excellence in the performing arts. NOT AN AWARD FOR SCHOOL WITH BEST STICK THIN PERFORMERS.

Her actions have proven to be revolting and proven her unworthy of our respect.
