Later that day, I happened to pass Jeff in the dining room. I offered a polite “Congratulations” and walked to my usual table. To my , Jeff came to me and put his plate beside mine.
“I’m, er-I’m just wondering if you would consider coming to work on my team, ”he said nervously. “You are really and you would be a great partner.”
“I don’t think so,” I replied, feeling unsure.
“Well, you change your mind, you can tell me tomorrow. ”He said before moving to another table.
All that night, I thought about the from Jeff. Maybe being a part of the election process（选举过程）would give me a chance to make important changes at our school. I decided to Jeff.
of all, I began to create a catchy advertisement. Within a few days, we a poster with Jeff’s showing him in a number of activities. No one could walk through any hallway passing Jeff’s smiling face.
My next step was to what new activities students would like to have at our school. Many of them wanted a chess club and a volleyball team.
With the information I had collected, Jeff met with the headmaster. The headmaster agreed to add we want to our school program.
With my help, Jeff and our ideas were well received at school.
An eighth grader said, “ will be exciting to have Jeff as president.”
these words made my heart filled with pride. I had wanted to become president of Student Union to make a difference. Now I achieved that. Jeff became the most popular candidate and I was a large part of his . The fact that it has made a in other people’s lives is the real prize. What a great feeling!

Last year, over 11,000 abandoned dogs were put down by government dogcatchers. Why? Because there was too little kennel space to keep them. Hong Kong Dog Rescue (HKDR) is a charity that rescues and finds homes for unwanted dogs. It’s a huge task and if this had received more support last year, fewer dogs would have been put down.
To support the efforts of HKDR, the Social Service Club held a fun festival last weekend. ‘We hoped the festival would raise money and also raise people’s awareness of the point of abandoned pets,’ said Louise Wong, the club president.
The club organized stalls second-hand clothes, delicious homemade cupcakes and even the fashions to keep pet dogs warm in the winter. Although there were fewer stalls than last year, items were sold. Louise explained that this was because prices were not set too high this year.
The festival also performances by the school choir and the hip hop group HK Boys. The crowd was extremely excited, and some members of the said there was too much noise to hear the performers. Louise admitted that everyone would have been able to hear if there had been better sound equipment.
The most interesting part of the day was the dance challenge, with contestants(选手) showing off some amazing moves. This year there were more contestants than last year. According to Louise, that was because the prizes, including G. E.M. concert tickets, were better. , this year’s fun festival was a big success. It raised far more money than last year: a record HK$12,000. And the festival also raised joy among the special guests – some of our four legged friends from HKDR!
