The day that changed the world

Whether you agree with what happened yesterday, you can't deny that the world is about to change. It's just weird to think that a normal evening ended with me glued to the TV for hours watching event of the night being reported and projected on CNN. After 2 years of nearly constant "Vote for Obama" ads and messages being thrown at us, it's finally over, in one night. A single night, you'll never see those messages again, until he runs for his next term of course. Everyone remembers where they were when the World Trade Centers went down, will someday people remember when the first black president was elected. Am I going to tell people that I was at Coe College, Armstrong hall, in Micah Nardini's room pretending to be studying for accounting with kids while all we wanted was an excuse to be able to watch the election and pretend we worked on homework? Was yesterday really one of those days?

To be honest i cant see this as one of those days. I guess its because of the fact that he hasn't done anything yet besides, well... being black. If he gets assinated of starts o war with canada, or makes cheese in a tube illegal, well maybe then ill remember where i was but until then... probably not. And what are you talking about. this is just as good if not better than mine
