i am a (potential) leader!

hey guys! if there are any...

anyway, last Saturday, July 11, 2009, eight (8) potential fourth year leaders were suppose to go to St. Paul University for a leadership training. Unfortunately, there were only five of us who attended the training and the venue was changed to Paco College (i'm not sure if this is the right name of the school)...

when that day came, i was excited! imagine, we have our own elected leaders in the school. they have their separate training on the same day as the training that i went to. the only difference is that the potential leaders of the fourth year student buddy's training is held outside the school. i realized that we are potential leaders and yet the people who we are going to train with are students from different schools. it's like our training is better than that of our very own leaders at school (no offense to my friends who are all leaders of the school except me).

after the training, i can say that my friends were not the only one who had their leadership training. in fact, i think my training was more advanced than theirs. to be honest, among all my closest friends in school, i'm the only one who is not that good, not that responsible, and not as great as the way they speak in front of many people. not to be exaggerating but i am really the only one in my group of friends who wasn't at school to have a leadership training. and since high school, they always see one another during recognition day which is the day when i spend my time at home feeling bored of summer.

anywho, it is my fault for not being in the leadershp training at school anyway. i was nominated twice for different positions and i objected them both. the first one was the position for YPMO officer and the second one was to become the president of my club, Mathletes. i was afraid of the responsibilities that the teachers will give me. i was afraid that i might not be able to reach their demands. so i had to reject the oppurtunity.

but it has been proven that God has His purposes. maybe the reason why he allowed me not to be an officer of any kind of class was because He instead wanted me to experience a different kind of leadership. so, so far, i have no regrets what so ever.

that's all!

I have to study for 4 quizzes and accomplish a simple homework...

ciao for now!
