SUPER

Well, hot-DOG.

Obama won.

I got to see most of the election between watching episodes of LOST with my boyfriend. This was probably the one night where I wasn't like, "QUICK PUT THE NEXT ONE ON".

I thought the election was interesting. I watched MSNBC for the beginning, and then CNN finished it off. And then for giggles Fox News, after that. Ha ha. They did nothing but talk about McCain's campaign.

What a surprise.

Anyway, I'm pretty sure Obama can handle this country. He said a bunch of things in his speech last night that literally sent shivers down my spine.

Can we.. POSSIBLY... clean up after ourselves? Can we live a life where we know our country doesn't have debt shoved down its throat?

I'd consider myself rather unpatriotic. I used to really frown upon any of those people with those flag stickers on their car, or anything like that.

But surprisingly enough, Obama gives me a reason to be patriotic. He makes me WANT to love this country. I don't know how he did it. But I must give him some kudos if I ever see him, because he's accomplished something that's pretty damned awesome, if he's able to make me love America.

I'm proud to say he's my president. I don't feel ashamed to have him lead my country. I actually feel pretty confident and good about it. It's amazing. I never thought I'd have this sort of feeling towards government.

I was watching the election, and there were these projected outcomes for each state, and as I continued watching it, I just kept getting the feeling that he would pull through.

The people have spoken- Obama is our new president. He won by the popular vote, AND the electoral vote(2:1, might I add). I'm glad I feel good about my country now, and I'm glad he's our president.

:D


In other news, I've been working on making a few things. I'll list them here and then possibly take photos and make tutorials and whatnot for making them. :D

- messenger bag
- tea-stained paper to be made into a fabric-covered journal
- Sculpey jewelery
- boxes made of paper

All projects have either been created or are in the process of being made. I'll get photos up soon.
