They Love My Shirt, They Love My Shirt Not...

Today, in honor of Barack Obama winning the election (WOO HOO!!!!! PARTY! CONFETTI! STREAMERS! YAY!!!!!!) I wore my mom's famous Obama T-Shirt. There a lot of McCain supporters in my classes, so they were avoiding looking at me. The Obama supporters, on the other hand, told me they loved it.


ps: I thought it was so cute when he told his daughters they were getting a puppy right in the middle of his acceptance speech!!!

Fingers Crossed!!!!

OMG!!!!! It's Election Day today, and a bunch of states' polls are already being counted!!!!!! I am really scared!!!!! Today we voted at school and Barack Obama won as president, I won't give the name of the governor (that would disclose the state I live in), and I-985 passed. I went with my mom to vote today, and I got to push the button!!!!!! Yay!! I hope Obama wins. I am crossing my fingers!!!!

Have a Maverick-y Halloween!!!

Yesterday while my friends and I were out trick-or-treating, we came to a house with a "McCain-Palin" sign outside, and when the door opened, the woman inside was wearing several McCain buttons. My friends Hannah decided to counteract that by saying, instead of "Trick or treat" to say "Have a Maverick-y Halloween from a bunch of Obama supporters!" The woman was a little shocked, but then started having a politics discussion with Hannah, mostly about Obama's tax cutting plans. My other friends and I practically had to drag her away from that house!!! Speaking of which, there were several other fun costumes outside, our favorite of which was Joe the Plumber!!!! It was genius!

We got plenty of candy, and the trading afterward was hysterical! AG: "Who wants Laffy Taffy!" Hannah: "ME ME ME!" Hahahaha

I wonder............

Hmmm...........I was watching the Vice Presidential Debate on Thursday, and I noticed something very strange. Sarah Palin said "nucular" instead of "nuclear" 4 times! Maybe more! I wonder if all Republicans have trouble with pronouncing that word. Or maybe she was just taught how to say "nuclear" by our dear friend George WB.
