Keeping ethics in mind well enough to practice it will be the goal now.
a classmate of mine is known to be a person of fun, socializing, and craziness sometimes. he kisses people when he's drunk, he buys eveybody in the whole entire program candies and notes, he says hi to everybody and knows everyone's name by heart. if this wasn't craziness, i don't know what he is.

but he's running for president the coming year.

Don't know about you, but he wouldn't be the first person come to mind when i think about president. I mean he's fun to hang out w/ and all but when it comes to taking up responsibilities and putting efforts and time in disciplining the faculty and setting examples for his fellow students,.. well i 'll just say I can't open my eyes widely and say "I hav faith."

So of course, I am entitled to what I think. Doesn't matter how crappy and biased an opinion I have about somebody, I am entitled to it as long as I don't influence others by badmouthing around.

But that's the opposite thing I did today.. A girl I had a tremendous respect for was in front of me, "expressing" her opinion of this fun-loving guy and how he's not suitable for the position.. yeda yada yada. Before I could close my mouth, menancing words flew out of my mouth like captured insects being freed from captivity, I simply could no stop. YEs,I wasn't lying, I wasn't saying things I didn't believe. I was simply 'expressing' my opinion. But regret got hold of me and gave me the lecture of ethics all over again.

I was wrong.

I mean I hardly knew the guy. He could be the most hard working, dedicated person in the whole faculty and I wouldn't know it. He could be the most responsible person I will ever know in my whole entire life, but I couldn't know it. He could be the best model example I will have seen the rest of my program years and I don't know it. So after all these 'i don't knows', how could I have said something like that?

I felt I have wronged him. I have violated the code of ethics we learn in school. I have followed the evilness of my human nature and blurted out the prejudice I have against everybody. My comments, my judgements got hold of me and put the bitch in me on the pedestal, enounciating loud and clear, every discriminatory conceited words from my brain.

I am sorry. and I will never do it again. I promise.
