I probably should have run for Faccomm if things were going to be like that. At least, my chances weren't zero, and there wouldn't be such problems right now.

Why did I even run for ExCo in the first place. That's right, I love Interact. And that's the main drive that keeps me going.

But now, I really regret running for ExCo in a way. Having your every action scrutinized upon during class isn't a really fun thing to experience. And whether you'll enter ExCo's all based on how many questions you get correct/wrong. And if you had asked me to be involved in so many things, that just shows that you're making use of me, since I'm not capable enough now that I've committed a mistake. I can't be in ExCo.

If it's going to be like that, I might as well pull out. If you're going to judge me based on a single mistake like that, I no longer want to be in an ExCo where the people elected aren't people who the students have the final say in. What meritocracy, what democracy.

If I ran for Faccomm, I'd trust the Fac Heads to know who they're choosing, but in Interact, that simply doesn't happen. In Interact, the teacher in charge has the final say, and she wants perfect, pupils with spanking clean records to be in ExCo.

Sorry, I'm not the person you're looking for.

And above sums up why I regret running for ExCo instead of Faccomm.
