Sorry for the lack of posts everyone, but it has definitely been a busy few weeks! I have had papers and midterms and even a monologue for women's studies. But alas, it is over for now. I have another round of stress coming up soon enough!

But it has also been exciting. The greatest thing about the recent election was being able to witness the jubilation that occurred on campus! No matter how we feel about the outcome, I think it was beautiful to watch the celebrations on TV as well as the students running around! There was sort of a mini gathering on the quad which was cool to watch (my roommate and I ordered a pizza and sat outside to watch). People were cheering and singing and it was awesome to watch. Of course, the McCain supporters were a little upset, but better luck next time. I am extremely excited that the first time I was able to vote was in the most epic presidential election history has seen to date. Think about it -- it was either a woman as VP or a Black man as President. Unheard of, but it happened. It was amazing to be surrounded by so many people with so many different views and degrees of passion. This definitely marks one of the most important moments in my college life.
