Yes We Can, Yes We Did



GOBAMA, GOBAMA, GO!!!
Wow, what an amazing time to be alive. The United States has elected the very first African American President. Election night was so amazing. I went out with Hailey in Brussels and Leuven, and we stayed up until 6 in the morning to see the results. I knew we had it once Obama won Ohio. I am actually proud to be an American again. I think my country has such a bright future, and I am filled with so much hope and excitement. If I think about it too much, I just get emotional. His cceptance speech in Grant Park was so beautiful. I should have been there! I do appreciate the opportunity to experience this awesome election abroad, but I really should have been there...
CHICAGO, I miss you!
The next four years should be really dynamic. And at least Sarah Palin is out of my life...
