I also liked how lots of things were conflicts, during our senate session. Conflict made our discussions interesting. This leads to what frustrated me. Since there was a lot of conflict, lots of bills didn’t pass. After a while, that got really annoying because nothing would pass. Either we would vote it down, or we would pass it, but then the President would veto it. This really frustrated me.
I learned that I like to talk in front of people. I would’t do it for a living, but I don’t mind doing in in History Class. I liked being in charge, when I was the Secretary of the Senate. I like writing on the board too, so that was really fun. I also learned that certain people in our class sometimes would vote on things just because they like/dis-like the person who’s presenting. Or they would vote things down, just to make our discussion interesting. Yes, most of the class would vote on things by if they actually liked it or not, but I did notice others who would vote things up/down just because they didn’t care or didn’t like the person who was presenting.
In the future, I would like to become a teacher because I like writing on the board, being in charge, and talking in front of small groups of people. I am not really involved in the government, but I do like knowing whats going on/what are the big issues.
* I’d say my favorite part of the entire Senate Session, would be that I got to vote on everything. I liked to be into/engaged into what people were talking about during our discussion.
* One thing I would change, would be that there could only be a certain amount of Amendments on a bill. When people kept amending things, it got super annoying because I would have to write them on the board, for one, but also because it made our procedure/voting process go longer. I started to get sick of doing the senate session towards the end.
