CA1 Entry 1

Something that happened in school...

Its the start of the new year so there will definitely be another election for the class committee and there was. However the election did not go exactly how I thought it will go, literally it changed my life. So here I am thinking...

Who is going to be the unlucky one that has to look after our class of rascals? I mean we all know Stevien did not have an easy time but I was definitely excited for a change of the class committee as I enjoyed seeing how different monitors had their different ways of running and overseeing everything going on in the class.

So there I was, an ordinary student of 2I discussing with my classmates on who to nominate and on who to vote for. Truth to be told, no one votes for who they really think is fit to be monitor nowadays. That is a tip for any teacher who is currently reading this. Back to the story, so name after name people were getting nominated however things took a drastic turn for me as the second last name was being called out... Guess who was nominated? ME! I mean why me? I do not have the best behaviour in class and I certainly do no have the best leadership skills in class so up till this day I still have no idea why I was nominated by my classmate Bryant, the volleyball vice captain. Still I have to emphasize on this point, his nomination changed my entire life in VS.

Still I was optimistic as I thought I stood a pretty good chance of not getting voted as one of the top. Oh, how wrong was I? The votes were tabulated and my heart sank like Titanic. This is what it read...

Amirul-10 votes
Gareth-17 votes

Don't worry your eyesight has not gone bad, its true I did receive majority of the votes and the new monitor of 2I is.........ME!!!! Upon hearing the results, I was filled with mixed emotions, I was excited as it was a new role to me but at the same time I was frightened by the daunting task I had at hand. This would mean I had to be more responsible than I ever was in my life. Still I knew it was a going to be a good exposure for me and at the same time look good in my report so there are pros and cons to this appointment of mine. Hopefully everything will go smoothly. During my time as monitor, I hope to make it the "Golden Era" of 2I 2008
