On the Ateneo School of Law Student Council Elections

Yes, we have to vote on platforms. Yes, we must think before we vote. Yes, sometimes, even if we know what we should do, we vote for people JUST BECAUSE. That sucks.

Yes, we are taking it seriously. Well, at least I am taking it seriously. Yes, I think the Student Council is a vital part of a student's life in the law school. Yes, sometimes we all dream of an efficient council only to be disappointed by their inability to deliver.

But I still am voting. I refuse to waive my right to having a say on who should represent me. They say they want to be of service, and I won't say no to an offer which only demands of my approval.

I dont know what's going on through the candidates' minds, but if there's one thing i'm sure of, they want to win. When I go to the Meeting de Avance tomorrow, I will look for that PASSION that only someone who wants it sooo badly can exhibit. I don't want them to be funny but I want them to be fun. I might vote for them "just because" but I will make sure that "MY JUST BECAUSE" will justify my decision.

the election is on Thursday, March 16.
