I miss the feeling, Of raising my Voice to the fullest. Making sure that more than 2,000 people hear my voice.

Training for 72 Hours just making sure that your inhibitions are gone. And you are ready to face the harsh thorns of a Faculty ready to listen.

Rehearsing your dynamics to make sure that you have everyone’s attention.

Memorizing a Speech that you will repeat to 128 Sections in the Faculty and Once in the Meeting De Avance.

“Isang Magandang Umaga/Hapon/Gabi po sa inyong lahat. Ako po. Si Robert Lim. From 1-15, Isang Tomasinong Kemiko Inhinyero. Tumatakbo bilang inyong Assistant Treasurer sa ilalim ng partidong SIKLAB: Samahan ng Inhinyerong Kumikilala sa LAkas ng Bawat Isa. Ate *kindat* Ano po ba ang ginagawa ng isang Assistant Treasurer? *antay sagot* Hindi lang naman po ito basta basta pagiging alalay ng ating ingat-yaman. Being Assistant Treasurer is both a Responsibility and an Obligation. Responsibility, because I and your Treasurer Gelo Gonzalez will be handling huge amounts of money na hindi lamang po sa council, kung hindi sa inyo rin. Obligation, because the council needs someone who is trust-worthy in fullfilling that Rensponsibility. Kaya nga andito si Rob, Robert Lim, upang tumugon sa pangangailangan niyo.

Ikaw Kuya. Sawang sawa ka na ba sa kabababa sa ESC Office para kumuha ng Eng’g Shirt at iba pang Engineering Merchandise? *sagot* Well kuya, Do not fear your Assistant Treasurer is here. Hinding hindi ka na mahihirapan kumuha ng mga engineering Merchandise dahil magkakaron na ng Treasurer’s Union. Opo. Treasurer’s Union. Ito ang Samahan ng mga ingat-yaman ng bawat klase na magpapadali ng mga transaksyon na ginagawa niyo sa Student Council. Oh diba? May friends ka na, May hassle Free merchandise ka pa!

Ate. Alam mo ba kung nasaan napupunta ang pera na binabayad mo sa Student Council *sagot* Hala. Ate. Estudyante ka ng ating Faculdad dapat alam mo kung saan napupunta ang pera natin. Well ate. Never Fear, Robert Lim is here. Ihahandog sa inyo ang STRIPS! O Semestrat Treasurer’s Report in Promoting Student Financial Awareness. Everytime a Semester Ends, maglalabas ang ESC ng Financial Statements na maglalaman ng mga napupuntahan ng perang binabayad niyo sa Student Council.

*Insert Section here* Dahil mahal ko kayo. I will make the Student Council’s Treasurers more reachable para lahat tayo CLOSE. Isang Tawag o Text mo lang, Order mo, Transactions mo, Reklamo mo. Matutugunan agad. With the Treasurer’s Hotline. Nothing but the best for my Fellow Tomasinong Inhinyero.

Muli, ako po si Robert Lim. Your Assistant Treasurer.”

This is an Exerpt for my Campaign Speech as Assistant Treasurer for The Student Council.

Standing tall and in composure. Mindset to lead and to be respected at the same time to respect.

Speaking of your plans for the Student Body. Showing them that you deserve to lead them into progress.

Smiling for 10 hours Straight. Just to show them that you are a man they can come up to if they have problems.

Fighting Apathy to show that Change has always been on its way. All we need is Initiative.

Sharing your platforms and plans for the Academic Year and proving to them that you can do what you can to improve their stay in the Faculty.

Loving your work as a Student Leader and as Follower.

Having friends that you share the same Ideals with.

Having Opponents that are better than you, but you sieze to be rattled.

I lost the Elections with no Hard Feelings. But with a Smile. Because I know, Whoever wins, The Council is in Good Hands. :)

I miss AKLAS. I miss SIKLAB. I miss the Student Council. I miss the Executive Board. I miss Team Council. I miss Rob Lim as a Student Leader. :)

Remember all the things we wanted?

Labels: love

1. Noynoy is the reflection of my Favorite Story, The tale of King Arthur. Yes. the one who was able to pull the sword out of the Stone, when everyone thought the STRONGER men can do so. Pero oh well. Kung sino pang lampa, Siya pa nakapagsalba.
2. Noynoy is God-Fearing. Yes. Stop throwing me all the Hacienda Luisita shizz, because he only owns 1% of it. It was a Cojuanco Property. Isang buong angkan. gets? Hindi lang isang tao. And besides it’s a private corporation. Meaning hindi mo pwedeng iinvolve ang Govbyerno dito.
3. Noynoy is an Aquino. Wala na tayong maagagawa. Dugo ng bayani ang nananalaytay sa kanya. This is irrelevant politically pero socially this really is a factor.
4. Noynoy has the charisma. The convincing power of Obama. Yes I dare contrast him to Pres. Obama. Kasi it’s true. Never have I seen a politician speak na alam talaga niya yung sinasabi niya at wala sa Script ang mga salitang binibigkas niya.
5. He may not look like it pero he knows Philippine Politics. He is in focus. Unlike the other candidates who are Standard bearers and at the same time plays the role of the Chairman of a political party, Noynoy has only one thing to worry about, the Presidency alone. No distractions.
6. He has an achievement. We are just too dumb to not notice that. The Senator has improved a lot in building up his Persona for this Presidential Race. Im proud of him for Stepping up and being the man Rightful for the presidency.
7. He does not bash on his fellow candidates unless he is bashed. Yes. This is about Noynoy, he is different from his party though he shares the same Ideals with them. :)
8. Noynoy belongs to the Liberal Party. The second oldest active party existing in the Philippines. Even though my Family has broken lines with this political party, I am still going for noy because I respect this Political Party. Why? Because this Party believes in reason and enlightenment just as much as I do. [Obvious na gusto kong maging LP eh no?]
9. Noynoy has the best Platform. social Contract among the Filipino People. this aims to build transformational leadership. Genuine Leaders for the filipino People. This is what we deserve. Nonoy also aims to rid of Impartiality in terms of Economy. Plus gusto niya yung 12 Year Education Cycle instead of the 10, meaning those future professionals wont be required to take up units abroad to pursue their careers overseas
10. And the Final Reason, Noynoy is the Man. The man who can represent the Philippines. The face of the Filipino People. He has the Passion to Serve. He has the willingness to lead.

I’m politically inclined. Locally and Nationally. Plus I was Deputy Secretary General of Siklab. Samahan ng Inhinyerong Kumikilala sa Lakas ng Bawat isa. Noynoy pretty much reflects who I am as a politician and as a Student Leader.

Pardon me for not stating the reasons for him seriously the past few days. Pero kasi I’m just tired of all the shizz of the people asking me why I’m voting for him, then they would just contradict my reasons. So Sa balota ko nalang sana ieexpress ang mga dahilan ko. Pero since nanay ko si becs, Karapatan niyang malaman to.
