Who shall I vote?

                             Five days from now, it will be the election of the new SSG (Supreme Student Government) officers batch 2011-2012. I already had thoughts on who I will vote for some positions, but I have doubts on who will I write his/her name on the presidential seat. I really need your help because this will be the last time I will vote on my high school life that relates to politics and I want to make a decision with a purpose.

                      We have three students running for the presidential seat from three different parties (Kalasag, Lafaan, and Langtay). Since most of us know who they are I will just represent their name by the party they belong.

                       Here are some things I know about them and let’s see who they are at three reasons why students vote for them.

1. Popularity:

·         Kalasag- He is mostly known for being a great dancer with a charming smile.

·         Lafaan- He is also known for being a good ballroom dancer with an average personality.

·         Langtay- She is mostly known for being a softball girl with a pretty face but has a little boyish act.

2.  Experience:

·         Kalasag- He tried to run the vice presidential seat last year but unfortunately he lost.

·         Lafaan-He became the first year representative, second year representative, and our current vice president.

·         Langtay- She is our current third year representative.

3. Free time:

·         Kalasag- Because he is in the regular class he has all the time that the science class don’t have.

·         Lafaan- Because he is in the science class he has the least of having a free time.

·         Langtay- Because she is also in the science class she also have little time, besides the school work she is also an athlete.

And for my own view:

·         Kalasag- I don’t really know him that well, but I heard he is determined to take the responsible for this job. “But will he be a better leader than just a dancer?”

·         Lafaan- He had been my classmate for at least three years. The way I see it he wasn’t that quite active on his part being the vice president of the SSG. I know he dreamed to take over on the student government. “But will he be a better officer since he will take the highest position?”

·         Langtay- She is also my classmate for three years. She is active in school, besides being a softball player she is also a news writer in the school’s news paper and many more. “But will she take ALL the responsibility?”

                  I have three options; “The dancer”, “The passive one”, or “The Jack of all trades”

                  Please give me a clue to help me choose the right candidate. If I offended any of these people in any way, Please forgive me.

Night at the Old House

                            When you are a kid, you're not sure if you are choosing the right decision. you're not a hundred percent sure if you're on the good side. There are times that you don't manage to be lucky, sometimes a decision might lead to a disaster or worse, it can be life threatening.

                             When I was about nine or ten years old, I was the type of kid who always got the last laugh because I was a little bit tricky that time.This childhood event happened in December. Three days before Christmas, it was freezing cold in Sagada."Hey, let's play truth or dare," my older cousin said scornfully. "Why not", we all agreed.

                            The game started excitedly and coincidentally the bottle pointed at me to spin it first, it stopped spinning and it pointed to my bigger cousin and she asked me "truth or dare?" and I already said "dare", I was curious of what my cousin would be thinking about but for sure she is thinking something harsh.

                 Two minutes passed by and she uttered "because you have made my life a carnival, I will make yours a living hell". 

                   I immediately said "Well, bring it on then I won't change my mind even if i have to cut my hands off". 

                   She made a Devilish grin and said "You'll sleep a night in the Old House.

                   " When she said the Old House my heart pumped rapidly like it was going to burst out of my chest and she said "Backing out, you little wimp."

           " a look alike of our Old House in Sagada"

                   

                       Because I didn't want to be called a wimp I still accepted the dare, so I had a night in the Old House that I almost died in there. So after the night passed I won the dare, and also it gave me a lesson to think twice before making a final decision.
