Mid-Action Plan Check In

So far my first two weeks of action have gone very well. I have researched my topic and emailed a political figure. I have not heard back from Mr. John Kasich and I’m not sure if I will but I hope that the points I brought up in my email make it to him and that he takes them into consideration for the rest of his term. I think that if I want to make a bigger difference I should meet up with him in person but he is very far away and I do not have a mode of transportation. By meeting with him it would also ensure that he heard my points and would take into account many of the suggestions that I included in my email. Since I have started I have learned that taking a stance on something that you are passionate about can be really rewarding. There is no better feeling then trying to make a difference in the world. Even if it unlikely that someone like the governor of Ohio would read and respond to an email of a college student who is out of state it made me feel good to take a stance. In the next two weeks the biggest challenge I foresee is that I am not going to have a lot of time to do the things I have left on my list. Finals are coming up and all the professors have begun to cram so that the students have all the knowledge necessary to do well in their class. Another challenge is that I do not know how to get to the water treatment plant in Columbus or when their tours are. I would assume most of their tours would be during the week which would be a problem because I have classes and homework that need to be attended and finished. However, I am confident that I will be able to find a way around these issues and finish my tasks for the rest of the month.
