elections

so francia where have you been lately?

you wouldn't believe what i've done these past couple of weeks. i ran for PRESIDENT of the BEHAVIORAL SCIENCE SOCIETY, elections is not until monday. yesterday was the last day of campaign and it was emotional for all of us candidates.

the first weeek was for recruitment, we were looking for people to fill the positions. there were glitches along the way but it was ironed out but of course not without casualties, we lost our precious AUDITOR. but it's okay, it was proving to be a good gamble on our part.

the second week was the filing of COC's (certificate of candidacies), it was intriguing and hostile for competing parties. there were a lot of manuevering, strategic moves and intrigues in the process but cooler heads and better judgement prevailed. this is were i realized that politics is a vey complex process because it involves two of the most dangerous elements in the planet: man and his inner desires. hand in hand with the filing was the screening, the aim of which i haven't totally grasped, because instead of asking about our intentions and plans, they were asking for past events that doesn't really matter. the better part i believe was when we met the past president of the Soc, where he showed me a good perspective of leadership and service.

the third week was for campaign, how indifferent and passive the students are! they are not really listening most of them were busy with their own lives (and cheeks) that they don't care about what's happening around them, the sad part is that they will be the next in line in leading the society.

after the tedious and worrisome weeks, i just cried because in this stage of the game, i can't do anything. this is where the part when we just have to let go and let be and let HIS will be done.

do pray for me.
this is the whole gang:
