Day 31

AGAIN! I forgot to post last night :( But I have a semi-excuse even though excuses will never be enough to compensate.  Yesterday we got back kind of late after exit polling.  This is what I would've posted about yesterday.

I had the unique opportunity to be a part of the Utah Colleges Exit Poll.  It was an interesting experience for me especially because I'm into politics.  Our assignment was sometimes stressful, but through it I was able to gain a lot of insight.  I wasn't able to know the exact results of the survey, but I did learn about people in general.

To be honest, I'm the type of person who tries to avoid eye contact with any pollsters or sales people who might come up to me wherever I am.  This time though, I was on the opposite side.  I had to approach people to encourage them to participate in something.  It wasn't easy, but for the most part people were very nice.  Although, there was one man who said that exit polls come from the devil...which doesn't make much sense, but he's entitled to his own opinion.  Anyway, I'm really grateful that I had this experience because it makes me want to be all the more kind to people who approach me.
