To sum it all the important news, the County has been awarded grants by the State, and Board of Supervisors have given some money away for things, the fight between the local Services District and the Recreation and Parks District, which involves my local Congressman (Who claimed, "this fight wouldn't be so controversial if I weren't involved in it.") Personally, this matter needs to be settled by the courts. The Chairman of the Board of Supervisors scolded the parties involved (expect for the Congressman) because the Services District wanted the County to use "eminent domain" to seize the property by the Congressman.
And finally, there was news on the "official" position of the Board of Supervisors against the City for installing power lines in my area.

The city wants to put powerlines in my area so the city can get more power. Everyone here says no, and the County is supporting us. I've been put on standby to "lobby" to the Mayor's Office, since I have an "in" with the Mayor's Office (and the County).

Why today?

What do you mean by to "lobby"?

Tell me, how much do you enjoy have homework over a break?

I wouldn't know. I didn't have any. XD

Lobbying is when a person, persons, or group, [usually paid] to influence legislators, or other government official (on all levels of government).

On the Federal level, lobbyists have to register with the Clerk of the Senate I believe. But I'm not getting paid for it. You'll learn all about lobbying in Government.


BTW, Hi KoYue!

Oh, so you're just there to get someone to do or not do something?

You suck, Nii-chan! >_<;
Hello, Athos. ^_^

If any of that homework is from AP classes, I don't feel sorry for you. XD

It kinda is . . . >_>

Pretty much. I e-mailed the local lawyer to offer my assistance with the ordeal. I told him I know an aid to the Mayor. He told me that he might need me to lobby the Mayor in order to get the council to vote "no" for installing the power lines in my area. All I have to wait for is a word from him, and next thing I know, I'll be at city hall having a tête-à-tête with the Mayor.

How was your holidays KoYue?

Fairly well. I got osme good stuff. ^^

What's it like knowing all these important people, Athos? XD

It's not AP, but it's Honors.

It's like knowing anyone else I know. I don't think myself higher just because I have all these connections. It's just that my road has brought me into contact with these people. And when certain events arise, I can help my community (and sometimes friends) with my connections. Remember, it's all about who you know.

What honors class are you in KoYue?

I should try to know more people, then. XD


Same crap. XD Why're you in Honors, anyways?

My Honors classes are English and apparently French from what my counselor told me. The work isn't difficult, but it is a lot. That being said, I guess I should go finish it. ^^; Bye-bye.
I'm in Honors because my teachers think I'm smart. >_< But at least I didn't get stuck in AP English. ^_^
