This is my first time filling out the census form. I didn’t know what it was and why I have to fill out the form until I learned about it in the class room. And also the blog on “Texas state and local government” made it very clear why we need to fill out the form. The blogger said filling the senses form helps the government to determine how many people live in the house hold and how much money to bring in to Texas. The blogger also told us that filling out the form makes more job available for house of representatives. the blogger did a good job on clarifying why we need to fill out the form, what would happen if we don’t fill out the form the consequences would be drastic.

Metro access

Metro access is a special transportation system for disabled people, especially here in Austin. They have the best service compared to other states and cities. it is a great service. I am one of the frequent users of the metro access, and I am so grateful for it. Without metro access, I wouldn’t be able to go to school or anywhere else around the Austin area.
There are only two things that I suggest metro access should improve. 1) The pickup time. It would be nice if they give us ten minutes waiting time instead of five minutes after they get to our pick up place. five minutes is not enough. Because, some clients needs more time to get to the car depending on their disabilities. 2) The drivers should call us five minutes before they get to us just like taxi cabs. Sometimes, the metro access takes longer to get to us so we have to wait for our ride for more than 30 minutes and that is a waste of our time and it is frustrating . we have to be outside in the rain or heat depending on the weather condition where they can see us when they get there. If we don’t wait for metro access outside, it is hard for the drivers to find us. Especially at big facilities like hospitals, stores, and schools; if they don’t find us after five minutes, they would leave. We don’t want to miss our ride. It would be nice if they give us a call before they get there. Oh!!! One more thing. It would be nice if taxi voucher would be provided for office trips like social security office or other offices just like hospitals and grocery stores. Because, we never know when we finish taking care of our business. Other than that, everything is good. I hope to see these three things improved soon.

"what is in diploma"

I found an article from off the cuff. it is called what is in diplomait is about a group of student from Trinity University who wanted the word “our lord” to be removed from diploma. the editor told us that the student argued over the phrase “our Lord” which appears on the diploma does not include all religion according to Sidra Qureshi, president of Trinity Diversity Connection. He said that “the phrase our Lord directly refers to Jesus Christ. “
Which I believe that it is true . “our Lord” refers to Jesus Christ, my Lord and savior. Amen. The editor did a great job. The writing is clear and easily understandable.
