a presidential poem

Tonight was the end-of-the year banquet and it is one of my last responsibilities as the UCLA ITE student chapter president. It was a little bittersweet for me to spend time with my officers one last time. I'll definitely miss my board and this year serving as president. Here's a little poem that I wrote for them :)

I remember this time around last year 

I had many many many fears 

DIdn't know if I could plan, organize, or lead 

But alas, I took charge because of a need 

But over this year without a doubt 

I never felt alone, day in and day out 

Now I'll share a few examples 

of how this year's board helped me through the battles

Boss Janet answered all of my questions, 

and Susan gave me lots of suggestions, 

I never had to worry about Elaine 

and her emails and gifts were the opposite of plain 

Chip always reassured me that it would be okay 

and Michael heard me rant, probably every single day. 

Allison always tried to bring the hype 

while Dario was more of the chill type 

Winston was always there, but only in spirit 

And Zach simply has a smile nicer than the Mona Lisa Exhibit. 

Walter had a patience with me that I simply can't understand 

And Sam was always willing to lend us a helping hand

So thank you for your patience and thank you for your grace 

Thank you for your jokes and smiles brought to my face

Thank you for your understanding and ears to listen 

Who knew that this board would make my heart glisten 

We had our good times, we had our bad. 

through all of it, I'm still really glad 

That I had the honor of serving as your ITE president 

I truly believe that it was time well spent.

I couldn't have made it through this year with you all 

and now I'm passing it on to someone who is  quite tall 

I'll stop now because my rhymes are running thin

but thank you once again. Sincerely, Sheena Kim

bye bye for now ^
