March- Re-cap on experience!!!

This Experience i have had these past weeks have given me a true incintive to follow politics later in life. I have learned life lessons on how to become self-dependent as well as to be a more well-rounded person. This experience i have gotton is an honor i can not thank everyone enough for allowing me to participate in. I have had a lot of fun working at the General Assembly as a messenger and i hope to apply to be a page in the U.S. Senate or the White House when i am in 10th or 11th grade.
The jobs i have had to preform have been:
1. Copy room [aka making sure the copier doesnt jam while someone is making copies]
2. Clerks office [running errands throughout the capitol and General Assembly Building for Mrs. Shaar]
3. Chamber Floor- [Waiting on the page bench until called on by a Senator to preform a task like going to the GAB building to get them some papers or lunch]
4. Gallery- [ punching in information for people who will be getting introduced in the gallery]
5. Reception Desk- [Telling people where Senator "so and so's" office is located]
6. Collating bills- [pulling bills out and putting them in numerical order and putting them in the bill calendar each day]
7.Answering telephones for Senators-[ "Good morning senator ____'s office, this is Cassie speaking how may i help you?".......[pause]....."So its Senate Bill Number___ you think this Senator should vote for?"...[pause]..."Thank-you for your input i'll be glad to tell him/her." [hang-up]....]
8. Recycling- [ going to the 3rd,1st,2nd,6th, and 5th floors on 2 days a week to recycle papers]
9. Legislative Library- [Collating bills for them]
10. Committee- [ i went to the Committee on Rules and the Committee on Transportation...I sat there with another page and we did errands for the Senators during Committee like getting them coffee or passing out papers on bills.]

This expierence also came with it 36 remarkable friendships. Each person had such a glowing personality you would love to be arpund them. We all get online onto Facebook to talk about how our day is going and we are planning reunions as quickly as we can, so we can see eachother as often as possible.

For anyone who is iterested in the legislative process and wants to learn more about it, this experience will be the best of your entire life, like it was mine. You get the first hand look at the legislative process, as well as 36 new friendships. :P [I will post later in more detail] p.s. don't be afraid to ask questions, i'll be glad to reply. :)
