Its been a LONG TIME!

since I have blogged...and I have so much to say! Now America is on the brink of change...last night we made HISTORY as the first African American was elected to be our 44th president!!! I did NOT go to sleep!! I was watching closely as the electoral votes came in at NYU Paris (pics to come), proudly sporting my I VOTED sticker! When I did get home the dorm was pretty lively, how could I sleep when history was being made! (thanks nick for letting ma watch your tv from skype lol) I have to say...now more than ever I am proud to be an AMERICAN! And I can say I am an American not becaused I was bron and raied here, or because my parents or their parents were born and raised here, because now I have a leader, who i will truly follow, now we have someone to look up to, something to look forward to! The future is in our hands and truly NOTHING is impossible! Dr. Martin Luther King likely dreamed of the day when a black man could lead a nation that he was once owned in...I was brought to tears at the image that is now my screen saver of the first family, a beacon of hope for unity and love in America! Like Barack said we have a long way to go! I have never been much into politics, and quite often I would turn away when politicians offered false hopes and promises, but I feel so encouraged this time around that we can really be the UNITED States of America! For sure I will be there on January 20th at Baracks inauguration!!!!!! I am looking at tickets as we speak!
