Male Female

A difficult decision that I once made was back when I was in junior high school, and the decision was about how I needed to choose between two organizations, as I was only able to join one of them. I was quite interested in joining the student council club as well as another club that helps other people, especially sick students in need. I was going to be accepted as one of the members of the helping community, but I really wanted the student council more. I needed to choose between those two because the acceptance letter from the helping community came before the interview for the student council. It was a really difficult decision for me because I did not know if I would be accepted for the student council. If I didn't get accepted, then I would not enter either club, but if I was accepted, then I would be happy. My decision was to take a risk and not enter the helping community. Instead, I tried my best in the interview for the student council, and I did great and got accepted.

I was quite interested in joining the student council club as well as another club that has a function to help other people, especially sick people, or sick pupils, or students in need. So I was going to be accepted as one of the members of the helping community, but I really wanted the student council more, but I needed to choose between those two, because I didn’t, because the exception letter of the helping community came first before the interview of the student council. So it was a really difficult decision for me because I did not know if I was going to be accepted for the student council. If I did, didn’t get accepted, then I would not enter both clubs, but if I was accepted, then I would be happy. My decision was to take risks and did not enter the helping community. Instead, I tried my best in the interview of the student council and I did great and got accepted.
