Salvete omnes! I always tell people to live for pleasure because it’s the most human thing to do. It dips into Epicureanism, a Greek philosophy that says the goal of life is happiness and the absence of pain. We may desire this because happiness is often equated to fulfillment, and fulfillment, to a life without regret. High school may feel like an exhaustingly long cycle but there is no banquet in the world that doesn't come to an end. So while you are attendees, allow me the honor of being your host and present you with a most pleasurable experience. A visionary without the means to carry out ideas is simply a daydreamer—I am a dream chaser. I stand to give you the best high school experience within TBLS’ limitations and squeeze out every last drop of amusement and fulfillment so you can feel like the main character in a coming-of-age movie and not graduate with regret. I strive to bring you more social events, spirit days, and cultural celebrations. A vote for me, is a glass raised to your pleasure. Cheers!

As students of a rigorous highschool, we sometimes forget we can balance education and fun. As a senator, I hope to be more involved in TBLS life by..

1. Addressing the overall interests of our class (club funding, spirit days, field trips, etc.)

2. Creating an environment where students can look forward to school events.

3. Focusing my time on the wellbeing of students. 

I recognize that many students have issues with our uniform and budgeting. With this, I hope to urge for more spirit days and school merch: for more freedom in what we can wear. In terms of budgeting, I would work to organize drives where money can go to events and clubs. 

To conclude, I would like to circle back to the rigorousness our highschool brings. I recognize that as a class, we sometimes cannot see the positives that school can bring. With me as your senator, we, the students, will be the first priority in terms of wellbeing when considering policies.
