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. :)
