Woohoo... I Feel Good.I am proud of what represents me, but not what I represent. I’m the president of my interest group, but am not at all proud of what I have achieved to date. I know there are many people who are unhappy under my lead because I have been unsure about so many things when I first stepped on. Don’t know much about where my power & rights begin and where my responsibility ends. I was afraid to exercise my rights and sometimes I do feel wronged when people think I’m “corrupted” just because I am doing everything myself and that, does hurt— a lot.
Now that I am beginning to get a hang of everything, I make up my mind; I will and want to make a difference. I want to walk the talk, I want the best that everyone can offer and at the end of the day, I want everyone to think the hard work they put in has been worth it.
I figure out, to change how others think and feel about me, I must FIRST change myself. So I shall dedicate this web log for this reinvention of myself. I want to be a responsible leader with a strong integrity.
Among my “new” friends, to them I think I am pretty rigid. I guess I started off with the wrong foot, I made it known that I felt strongly against pre-marital sex, for a reason, of course. People in my education institution portray to the public that they have no scruples when it comes to having sex before marriage. So I got into the institution with a firm mindset that, sex is only to be engaged after marriage.
Right now, I think pre-marital sex is something that really depends on age. If you’re young and dependent, it is wrong. By dependent, I mean emotionally and financially. If you’re old enough and independent, then it is really left up to your values.
I guess, I come across as judgmental and I am judgmental. By being that and being perceived as that, I don’t feel any better than my friends, in fact I feel worst off. But, I am willing to change. I believe everyone is entitled to their individual values and I will learn how to accept them, as long as it is within standard morals and within legal measures. Oh, by the way, I’m studying law, in case you’re wondering what I do.
Not only do I want to be a great leader, I want to be a great friend. =)
Working towards a better mind, body & soul. Woohoo……

I am pretty much like every other girl. Perhaps not that much. I like thinking for my own. One thing I can't tolerate is for people to tell me they know me. I find that terribly arrogant.
