Isabella Danisse's Point of View

Mabilis naman natapos ang registration sa mga clubs at organizations. Nag-meeting na rin ang mga club at organizations nang sumapit ang hapon. Mabuti at hindi na ako naging officer dahil kontento na ako sa pagiging officer sa klase ko.

Ayaw ko ng dagdag stress at sakit sa ulo. Nang sumapit ang 4:30 PM ay nag-announce sila na dumiretso sa auditorium para makilala namin ang dalawang party list na maglalaban para sa election 2021 ng bagong student council ng Hearthstone.

Of course, my friends and I will support Threscia's party list. We made our way to the auditorium while having a conversation about both party-list until we reached the auditorium.

As we entered, noise from the people inside filled our ears as the cold breeze from the air-con filled our body.

The whole auditorium is full but it's enough to accommodate all students and faculty staff of Hearthstone University. Lahat ng estudyante ay nandito dahil lahat boboto sa nalalapit na election.

This auditorium is wide and big so it's not a problem even 5,000 people will enter this auditorium. Miss Elle guided us to our designated sits in front. Sa harap ay mga first year like us. May mga kaniya-kaniyang pwesto ang mga iba't ibang college departments.

Umupo na kami at katabi ko si Kiri. We were patiently waiting until the program starts. Bigla tuloy akong kinabahan para kay Threscia dahil maraming tao ang nandito. Feeling ko, hindi ko kakayanin ang humarap sa ganitong karaming tao habang nagsasalita.

Well, Threscia is already used to this so it's not a problem for her. Hindi na dapat ako mag-alala para sa kaniya dahil sanay siyang humarap at magsalita sa harap ng maraming tao.

Maya-maya naman ay may dalawang babae na Professors na umakyat sa stage para simulan na ang program. They are wearing their uniform and I think, nasa mid-30s na sila. They're both morena and beautiful.

"Hello, Hearthstone University. Make some noise," energetic na sabi ng isa kaya naman humiyaw naman ang iba at pumalakpak lang kami. As usual, boses ng mga lalaki ang nangingibabaw sa hiyawan. Mukhang excited sila.

Napatingin kami sa malaking LED Screen na nasa harap namin at nagpapakita pala roon ang PowerPoint Presentation ng event ngayon.

May nakasulat na 'Presenting the Party-list'. Nasa baba nito ay ang 'Election 2022'. Sumunod na slide ay ang Philosophy ng Hearthstone. Binalik ko ang tingin ko sa entablado.

"Mukhang excited na kayo. Are you ready to meet our two party-list who'll compete for the student council 2021?!" Malakas at energetic na sabi naman ng isa kaya humiyaw sila ulit at nag 'Yes'.

"Okay, hindi na natin ito patatagalin pa. I'm Miss Sharon T. Osbourne, Professor at the College of Liberal Arts," pagkasabi n'on ni Miss Sharon ay humiyaw ang lahat ngunit sa tingin ko ay nangingibabaw ang hiyawan ng mga taga-Liberal Arts. Ang iba ay pumito pa.

Miss Sharon smiled at us.

"I'm Miss Jane W. Escalante, Professor at the College of Medicine," like they did to Miss Sharon, the students from the College of Medicine cheered and shouted Miss Jane's name. Some are whistling while we are clapping. Maya-maya ay huminto na ang lahat at tumahimik.

"We're the masters of ceremony for today's event. To formally start the event, let us all welcome our former Student Body President, Mr. Grant Benjamin M. Yuan to give his message. A graduating student of College of Law. Let's give him a round of applause," Miss Sharon stated.

As far as I know, Political Science ang pre-law ni Grant at ga-graduate na siya. Mahaba ang pag-aaral ng pag-aabogado. After he graduates, he will enter a law school.
