Good People, Perfect Election

Dormitory is a place where we live for three years. Sometimes, live there make us feel like a bird in a cage. This world is so wide, and you know, we only live in a small region at the small village, with a very limited time for go out. Suppose there is a wide field, and we only use the small area at the corner. Yeah, it’s just really boring.

You can imagine how hard it is. Fortunately every single person who lives there has their own special ability. Need evidence? This dormitory can be magically changed into a small country. It was just because the house captain. They worked hard together to held an election. Through this election, we can choose our leader. In a country, we call it a “president”.

This election had some processes, and it was almost same as the election in our country, Indonesia. They have campaign, public skill “oration”, then finally the election. We also acted as the society of the country. We should choose one of three candidates to become our leader. At that time we had three candidates, Tedy Z M, Afif Pandu A, and Ahmad Nando. They are the best three of nine candidates who was nominated.

All of the candidates followed the rules; they did the campaign by their own way. Tedy alloted his campaign brochures to each class, but shaped in an origami style. We can find his vision, mission and motto there. It is quite creative, right? Afif entertained us by holding an event, it’s kind of gathering night. There was also quite entertaining for us. The last but not least, was Nando. He used big sound system that usually used for speech.  It was surprising. At the public skill, they also did their best they could do, but the final result was on our hands, the society.

When the election time came and started at about 09.00 PM. It was our sleeping time, right? But it didn’t decrease our enthusiasm at all. Everyone came to the light house to vote although we should be patient, because the queue was so long. When everyone has done their turn to vote, two representatives of each house stayed at the light house for count the result. They acted as the witnesses. Can you guess the winner? Yeah, Ahmad Nando was chosen as the head of dormitory’s committee. 

The election ran really well and it was almost perfect. The candidates also did their best. If you heard some issues that they cheat on this competition. Please ignore it, it just their trick to attract their mass, as long as it stays at the rule, why not? It doesn’t mean they are cheating on this competition. They just pretty smart to think out of the box.
