Blog #3

The only real place that our community gets together to discuss issues and solve problems is our community hall. This place is a fairly small meeting area, but is vastly used for discussions over economy, traffic, improvement and other areas of reform that needs take place in our community. I have only been their once and that was to vote in my first election because I was old enough to vote this year. The roomthat I was in, and the room that holds the meetings was pretty big, yet dreary. No forms of color were on the walls or anything, but I suppose if there were color it might distract people from the real issues they're trying to address (I wouldn’t know I’ve never been to a meeting before). Although I have not witnessed this for myself, I can only take time to appreciate the people who spend hours together trying to figure out solutions to problems in our community and the community halls is the place where these solutions are thought on. I don't know what the other rooms in this building is for because there are a lot of them, yet I have not seen any being used for myself. If I had to guess I would assume they are used for smaller discussions over little issues, rather than the large decisions over everything. Either way, if you want to know what place in my community we meet to talk over what's been happening, that place would be our community hall.
