I just flipped the TV on another channel for a second - yes it was MTV, I needed some distraction - when apparently the moment I was waiting for arrived. Luckely I had my floormates to me remind of it, while all of a sudden people started screaming and yelling and running down the hall. Of course I ran out, ran back in again, and yes there it was: Barack Obama is the new president of the United States.

I am excited, I am happy and yes, just as Whitney I am curious, curious to see what the world is going to wake up to tomorrow. But for now: let's turn to a new page of history. Let's celebrate the future of America.
