Yes we Can and Yes we DID!!!!

OBAMA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This was a much needed Blog entry!!!

As few know i am not for the government or most institutions in the world. I don't trust the government. I never really supported the government(not voting in primaries, taxes, etc.). I felt betrayed by the government, and i know i wasn't alone. But i also knew i wouldn't want to live any other place in the world. So i played my part and voted for change!

I still felt like it wasn't enough. The trust i have in this government is so small, i was convinced someone would hack into the poll system and alter the votes.

At my Kick Boxing class, there were only like 5 of us that night. My Sensai asked if we all voted and this one big guy said very proudly "i voted for McCain". Our Sensai got so heated and said one thing "in class you are all one. if one of you triumphs, you all triumph. If one of you fails, you all fail. Because of this Gentleman you shall feel what this country would feel if that man is to become president" I ran over 50 laps..countless sit-ups..numerous push-ups 5 different ways...got body slammed everywhere...spent 30 minutes on punching bags..and 30 minutes with the bamboo sticks...which HURT!!! Needless to say i got fucked up...i wobbled home..

Took a nice hot shower came out and the election coverage began. I couldn't help my heavy eyes...and i drifted into a dream. I woke up and i saw Obama giving the acceptance speech!!!
I was going nuts! I swore i was still dreaming. It was definitely a feeling of complete triumph and joy, that FINALLY we as Americans made the right choice! I can FINALLY have some pride and dignity in saying i am from America. Still not my favorite thing to say aloud sometimes, but now i am more hopeful that progress will happen.

Obama's speech was MAGNIFICENT in my opinion. He basically laid it out that everything is going to be hard and it wont be overnight, but it will happen!


Had to make this a quick entry because i am at work, but i HAD to post about this moment of history we are all a part of! Now i can honestly say, my son or daughter can say "mommy i want to be president of the United States"...and it CAN happen!

Gotta Love It!!!!!!
