that experience was beyond nerve wrecking, seriously.
Hall 10's 19th JCRC Elections for Social Secretary was the most exciting thing i've experienced so far! after the first box of polls, i thought that it was all gonna be over already because it was so clear. but halfway through the second box of polls, it was signaled to us that there was only a difference of.. 4 votes. from then on, the number fluctuated like crazy but within a small range and derrick said this at when we tied 'it'll be damn funny if it comes down to the last vote.'
then last 4 votes went down like this:
'social, abstain'
'social, abstain'
'benedict and alvina'
'now its time for the last vote'
YOU KIDDING ME?! we looked at each other and felt damn intense HAHA.
then we heard: 'lorraine and alvina'
seriously. ONE VOTE. down to the very last vote and it was for me! beyond happy but i knew that there would a recount of votes (duh, i would ask for that too) and it was yet another 15 minutes of nerves acting up.
but surprisingly, i really won by just ONE VOTE!! hahaha. 111 votes to 110 votes gosh.
really would like to express my gratitude to all who voted for me and who believe that i can do a good job! i will do my best and not let you all down (:
want to thank everyone who i campaigned with as well! i think we all really tried our best to whatever we can and it is an experience we can all be proud of.
and derrick too; i was running for this post with him and i feel happy because he was willing to step up to run with me when another girl decided not to run! we were feeling stressed together for the past week and i'm really glad that i have him to help me along the way!!
okay back to reality, i have to go and do my tutorial now!
