Nov. 4th 2008; My first Presidential Election

Ok so today as I'm sure everyone knows is Election Day and I voted NO on Fl amendment 2 and for Obama to be president. And I don't know when I filled in the annoyingly small bubbles in the equally annoyingly small space it brought purpose to my life. No really it did, I now understand the PURPOSE of the Michigan M.E.A.P.S. (don't ask me what it stands for I can never remember), but you basically sat a practiced how to fill in tiny ass little bubbles while feeling completely under pressure.
But really I actually felt really proud of myself when I was filling out and finishing my ballot, I actually felt like I was pulling my weight around in the country. And I totally hope that if Obama doesn't win I'll cry, and just vote for him again in 4 years when I'm 24. So yeah that's all for right now.

Oh My God, Obama actually won. I feel so overwhelmed by all of this, I can't explain it. I'll cry tonight or even tomorrow when its "official". God I just released that my niece or nephew is going to grow up, at least until it's four, with a black president. This is amazing, what it's going to mean to Elaine, Josh and Elijah just...my God...
