I am proud to say that I am Omega Phi Alpha's President elect for next semester. Yes!!! Yes, I say "yes" for reasons other than the fact that I wanted the job. I am just happy that the person running against me didn't win. I'm sure you want to know that back story. Well here you go.
There is this girl in my sorority, who shall not be named, who was running for president. She is the kind of girl who always makes you feel stupid, not by the words that she says, but by the way she looks at you or doesn't look at you. If you say something that she doesn't agree with she roles her easy and looks at you like you are the dumbest piece of scum who ever walked the earth and you shouldn't deserve the privilege to speak. That's her. No only that, but she is also the head of the biggest clique in the sorority. They all sit in the back of the room and gossip, looking at everyone like they are better than them.
Well, this girl was running for president. I was upset because she has personally belittled me. I was running for the Service position since I had so many new ideas. Service is what my sorority is founded upon so it was going to be a great leadership position. After nominations were closed and I was about to go home, a group of girls came to me and begged me to run for president.
"I'm running for Service already," I told them, but they said that they didn't care. They didn't want the other girl the be in charge and they felt that I would be better fit to run for president.
I was very flattered that they thought I would be the best person for the job. I also knew that they chose me because I could handle the heat of a group of girls hating me for running against their friend.
The whole week I didn't let the other girl, nor her friends, know that I was running against her, so the night of elections you can imagine how shocked they were when I was nominated to run against her. They even laughed at it. I guess they felt that there was no way I would win. They were wrong.
I am the new President of Omega Phi Alpha. The first black president of our chapter. I kind of feel like President Obama. :) Who would have thought i could do it?
