Student Council [lunchtime]

[professor-lyman.livejournal.com]

Josh was in a fantastic mood.

And no, he wasn't going to tell you why.

When the members of Student Council had walked into the room he greeted them with a bright smile.

"Today we've got a lot of things to get through, but I know you're all anxious to get to the school assembly, so let's see if we can't get through them fairly quickly." He looked around the room. "Homecoming is next week and we need to organize the voting for Homecoming Court, decide what kinds of things need to be included for the carnival, and sell tickets and organize the dance. I have decided that the sophomore class representatives will be in charge of organizing the court, the juniors will handle the carnival, and the seniors will head up the dance."

He grinned at the freshman representatives. "I haven't forgotten about you guys--I'm just letting you be recruited by the other classes if they need more hands."

He linked his hands behind his head and tipped back in his chair. "We also need to elect a president from among you to serve as my chief...staffer. Not minion. Personally, I'd prefer a senior, but it's entirely up to you. Look around the room, decide which of you twelve you'd like to lead, and drop that name into the ballot box on my desk." Josh pointed to it.

"Questions, comments, funny stories?"

ETA: Following the election, Josh tallied the votes. "Congratulations, Alanna," he said, grinning, "our new Student Council president."

"Cool," said Elizabeth, jotting some notes down. "That should make decorating easier as we'll know what we've got to work with."

"Could I make a request for less things that encourage students to blow things up?" Josh continued. "Maybe no more volcanoes?"

Elizabeth giggled. "Where's the fun in that?" she asked. "Maybe we could do something to celebrate the fact that we actually have alumini this year? Lots of them ended up in California; maybe we could use that as a theme with beaches and, uh, Napa and Silicon Valley and Hollywood?"

"Hollywood sounds like an interesting theme. Maybe something about actors and actress from different eras?" Alanna was very proud that she even knew that much. And I volunteer to set up threads. Becuase I'm crazy. But someone else is choosing music.

"I like Hollywood too. Lots of variety."

"I refuse to wear a boa," Josh said. "Just putting that out there."

Elizabeth snickered. "That's certainly producing, ah, very interesting mental images there," she said, scribbling further notes on her pad. "Okay, Hollywood has the sign, obviously. We could do the Walk of Fame thing, but maybe we could do it with alumini names instead of the stars?"

"Just no statues that suddenly come to life." Alanna said with a shudder.

Elizabeth nodded emphatically. "I concur whole-heartedly," she agreed. "And Hollywood doesn't have any volcanoes, so Professor Lyman can be pleased about that!"
