its been a long, long time coming...but i know..change gonna come..

oh yes it will..

today is so huge. we finally have a new president. a president who is normal. who cares about us, as a nation. a person who really wants to help our whole country, and stop this war. watching obama become our president today really affected me. ive been feeling so much change going on inside me, and around me, but i havent really stopped to think about how much that correlates with the whole country. we are all going through change. racists are having to realize that they are in the old school way of thought, finally. the internet, and new technology and medicines all these things that most of us knew were available but not being used properly in the country are about to be used. he is a smart man, who is really going to make a difference.

i felt the energy of the country switch today while watching the inauguration. it felt fresh, new, clean. there wasnt some old white guy standing on the stage pretending to care about the people, but really cant wait to go scratch his friends back and be a fat cat up in the white house. we had a man up there, who is going to stop celebrating today and go do work. hes so eager to change things, that hes ready to work. he realizes that he doesnt need to be at a parade all day, thats for the people who got him there. he needs to do what he was hired to do, change this country out of the horribleness that was left from the last administration.

im actually proud to be an american today. i never could really say that before, or thought to. but today im proud, im proud to be alive and to be young, and get to see the huge part of history im living in. i will talk about this day forever. i will pass on the importance to younger generations who are lucky enough to never think anything about it. we grew up in a world full of hatred racists, and they wont have to. well there will be racists, but they are quickly becoming the underdogs.

OBAMA!!!!
