THE QC GIRL- A MEMOIR


I remember this statue was one of the main Queens college landmarks. She was between the senior block and the junior block and she was right between the lecture theatres and behind "love garden". Goodness gracious. She is the famous "Queens College Girl". She has been in that school for decades and still counting, through the rain, sunshine and worse weather. She has seen other girls come in wearing pinafores and left wearing skirts. She has seen parents come and go, everyone has walked past her at some time or the other. Even nine years after graduating from QC her statue is still there intact. I think she was just touched up a little with paint, the statue still looks good.

I remember the time a tale went around saying that she moved, others said she went to the principal's house one night and asked to wear a skirt and blosue as she was tired of wearing her pinafore. Come to think of it, she needs to wear a skirt and blouse. Her junior days are seriously over.

everywhere we gooo, (echo)
people always ask us,
who we are,
we always tell 'em,
we are the QC girls,
the mighty mighty QC girls,
to make them jealous,
we shout a lil' louder.
