well, first off, congrats to the 49 other individuals who made it into the 35th !
really hoping to know you guys better and work together for the upcoming events in the year =]
things are as such and the elects can't be changed no matter how hard we grumble.
the 34th have said that they do have reservations about our batch of elects, and i do not disagree with that.
sigh, don't exactly know what else to blog about this already, kinda talked about it a few times with you guys in school already.
let's see how things progress over the year...

hmm, it was pretty disappointing for me when the nominees who i felt had the capabilities and are deserving to be part of council did not get in. instead, some who were just more popular or more humourous in a sense attracted more attention from the faculty, therefore, earning themselves a place in the 35th
however, you guys mustn't ever feel negative about not making it in !
would like to share quotes from lincoln's blog at this point in time, i felt that his posts over the past couple of days were extremely well said.

" They say people who fall lose their confidence. But for people like me who never had confidence to start with, Ive never lost a single bit. Instead, Ive gained some. This is the second major disappointment in my life. Sorry, but Im not shattered by it.

Life is like a river. Although Ive capsized, Ive got back up. And Ill continue moving on. Faster. Steadier. The water will dry, the road unwinds. I paddle on. "

" So lets picture it as a river. The river flows, and you see three paths. You choose one and then in that one path it branches out another three paths. And if this keeps on happening you would keep on thinking "hey if i took the other path earlier, might it be better?" And the deeper you go, the more choices you make, the more you regret.

But have you ever thought that if you didnt make the choice, you wouldnt know that you made a right/wrong choice. And since you chose the path, you can now identify the characteristics of a better and a not-so-good path, and so the next time you are presented with more paths, you would choose the better one.

And now lets picture a straight, one-path river. Of course you would feel more relaxed and happy because theres only one path. No choice, no nothing. Everything is fixed for you. You dont have the burden of making a choice. And every obstacle you encounter, you tell yourself "Not like I have a choice, so Ill just have to face it." And surprisingly, you wouldnt regret on anything, because the path is set, the problems are bound to be there, you just live a life set for you. "

i believe that everyone who had made a choice to run for council, three weeks ago, made a choice that they wouldn't regret even now
the whole campaigning period has definitely provided lots of take-aways for every nominee
getting to know your group members even more each day, making new friends both within and out of your respective faculties, having so much fun together with the other nominees
i mean, everything has just been extremely memorable for me, running for council is indeed an unforgettable experience
