So this day has finally come!!! Barack Obama's inauguration as the 44th President of the United States; never thought I would see it happen. (my president is black, my Lambo's blue...) lol. I wish I could have gone down to D.C. to see everything in person but at least I got to see it. And Temple University was highly incorrect if they thought I was attending class today. Personally, I don't understand why class wasn't just canceled period. My first class was during his speech. Ummm yea. My professors better not ask me why I wasn't in class either. What the eff do you mean, "why wasn't I in class?", why were you IN class? I mean I don't doubt there's going to be at least one class where I'll regret not going the first day but so be it. I'd rather regret that I missed the first day of classes for a portion of the semester than regret that I missed the inauguration of the first President that I voted for, the first black President, and most of all the first man to give our country a sense of hope since possibly the Clinton administration, for the rest of my life. Temple U is crazy and sadly mistaken if they thought for a second that that was going to happen. Some of my friends went to class; one even during the inauguration ceremony (she said the class was pack too; what does that meeeeaaaan???). I won't knock them because I understand everyone doesn't hold this day in as high a regard, but as for myself , I was watching all day. (I like the feeling of being there.) I saw on MSN.com someone's reaction to the inauguration saying, "Too much. This isn't the Superbowl." Now you know I respect others' opinions but is this not the same treatment and procession that basically every other President received? The only significant difference is the thickness of the President's (so happy to say that!) car door...for obvious reasons. Perhaps you're in a sour mood because your precious George got booed by the crowd of more than 2 million. Sorry, but not Obama's fault. Another comment was, "History in the making? I don't see it. Just another day on the calender." Hmm perhaps you really don't know what the phrase, "history in the making," means; even a five year old could see why this day is a part of history...I mean unless a black man was elected President before? I don't, wait ::thinking::......yea I don't think that's happened before.
