it was cool to watch the inauguration today. i don't think i've ever watched the big speech before. in fact, i wonder why i didn't watch it last year. probably because i was at school.
wow. how did i not watch the inauguration last time around? how is it that at a high school, we were not forced to pause classes for a few minutes and watch our president say a few words about the future of our country? or four years before that, when i was in 8th grade...that surely seems old enough to understand the magnitude of a new president's first speech.
i hope schools today stopped for a minute. because, whether you like it or not, this is history. regardless of who you voted for two months ago, you have a new president. and he's going to be a big part of how everything in life goes for the next few years, at the very least.
haha. and the benediction was kind of awesome. i didn't realize you could crack jokes during a prayer, but apparently you can.
so...go america. here's to (ever) getting out of recession, ending these ridiculous wars and going back to being an awesome world power.

haha um i'm pretty sure that the inauguration speech is only once every four years :) but i agree, it was awesome
i meant last time around.
you know what i meant. omg.
I was into it also. I was proud to be an American eventhough I voted for the other guy :)Obama sure is an awesome speaker, isn't he?
he did give a really nice speech. short, precise and serious enough so we know he means business.
it's an interesting shift from when he was just a candidate. but now he's president. so yeah.
