Anyone but Turbo for Pope? Nope.


Hey folks,

As some of you know this year is my last official year of high school, but I intend to do a victory lap. Getting involved was rough for me a few years ago, I had a shell no one was allowed into. The next step of breaking out of this shell is taking on some responsibility and running for Student Council Co-President is what I intend to do. Starting a rough hashing of my speech and I figured I would post it for future reference.

This is not only my school but yours,
In the end anyone that ignores what is around them is lost.
Which they will pay at their own cost.

If I had known what I know now, then,
I would have joined every club I could even before I picked up this pen.

Life is like a game, you can not win if you do not try.
Next year I want you to learn how to reach the next level.
OSCVI can easily be the best local school given the right leadership,
A school with the right people to be prideful,
A breeding ground for friendship.

Electing me in as student council co president will make your next year a year to remember.
I am eager to get that chance to make this happen.
All of our parents have said high school is the most memorable years of their lives.
Ask your teachers they never left.

And I play to win.
