Hello, wonderful people of Paint,
I hope this message finds you all in good spirits. I’m writing to share an important decision I’ve made after much thought and reflection. I’ve decided that I will not be running for the admin campaign this time around. This wasn’t an easy choice, but after carefully considering my current circumstances, I believe it’s the right one for me.
The main reason is simply that I don’t have the time or capacity to take on such an important role right now. Being an admin is a big responsibility, and it requires dedication, focus, and consistency—qualities I admire in those who currently hold the position. However, I’ve realized that I’m not in a place where I can give it the attention it deserves. I make mistakes more often than I’d like to admit, and I don’t think I’d be the best fit for the role at this point in my life.
I want to take a moment to sincerely thank everyone who encouraged me to run for admin. Your support and belief in me mean so much, and I’m truly grateful. It’s not easy to step back from something I know some of you thought I could do, but I hope you’ll understand my reasons. Maybe next year, when things are a little more settled in my life, I’ll have the opportunity to try again.
Right now, I have a lot on my plate. School is my top priority, and it’s keeping me incredibly busy. I’m about to start high school, which is a huge step, and I’m already swamped with assignments and projects. On top of that, I’m planning to get a new job soon. For the past little while, I’ve been working with my uncle, but it’s been more of a volunteer role since I haven’t been getting paid. While I’ve learned a lot from the experience, I’m ready to take on a paid job where I can start saving money for my future.
Speaking of the future, my ultimate goal is to get into a good college and build a stable career. I know how important education is, and I’m determined to work hard so I can create opportunities for myself. I want to be able to support myself and the people I care about, and that starts with making smart decisions now.
There’s another reason behind all of this, one that’s deeply personal to me. I’ve found the love of my life, and she means everything to me. I want to build a future with her, and that requires me to focus on my goals—getting a good education, saving money, and creating a stable life. I’m willing to put in the work now so that we can have a better tomorrow. That’s why I’m prioritizing school, work, and personal growth over other commitments like running for admin.
I know this might seem like a lot, but I believe it’s the right path for me. I’m not giving up on my dreams or aspirations; I’m simply redirecting my energy toward the things that matter most to me at this moment. I hope you all can understand and support my decision.
Thank you again to everyone who believed in me and encouraged me to run for admin. Your kindness and support mean the world to me, and I hope to make you proud in other ways as I work toward my goals.
Wishing you all the best,
-Mexi
