Thoughts When You Don’t Make the Homecoming Court Top 10
Many girls grow up aspiring to become homecoming queen, but not all have the confidence to try it out. Those who do have the confidence can apply their senior year of high school. After making a video and answering questions, a committee of Jesuit student council and staff select the Top 10 girls. These are the feelings of the girls who don’t get chosen.
Walking up to hear the big news from Mrs. Krukar
Scoping out the competition
Feeling confident, but one can never be too confident
Waiting for your name to be called
Shocked when you don’t hear your name
Feeling like you’re not pretty enough or don’t know the right people
Wondering what you should’ve done differently
Realizing that you’re still #flawless
Feeling independent without male validation
Laughing about how much you cared
Congratulating and supporting our sisters that did make the top ten, and the top five
