Senate Hart Building

These last few weeks interning in the Senate have flown by-too fast. Time is escaping me. I am realizing that I need to do more, sleep less, and make more memories. Time if flying by. Come on time, slow down, I want to capture every moment of you.

Ran into an interesting interactive time line that looks at the political events that have taken place between Jan. 2011 and now (link below this paragraph). Just to give you all an idea of all the issues we have been dealing with in the office. That is not all though, we get all sorts of calls, letters,emails, meeting requests, etc.

I would also recommend for everyone to sign up for their news feed. They send a daily collection of all the breaking headlines to your email. That way you can have you coffee (or tea) while doing all your reading on one page. :-) Really helpful. If you are coming to intern next semester or this summer start digging deep into the news now. That way you will be completely informed of all the major events going on in our political world.

There are four daily political blogs that are very helpful and get sent to your inbox daily. You can read them with your morning coffee or on your phone while on the go.

Enjoy!

God bless,
