Election of 08

November 5, 2008 was election between the Old Mccain and Hopeful Obama. The day was long, but I shortened it for election XD. I got to the poll at 1:00PM-ish. It was at my junior highschool Pershing I.S. 220. There was arrows circling around the building took me a few minutes to finally find the entrance. The school sure has changed since I came here, everywhere bright blue like the ocean sea quite relaxing setting. As I stepped into the relative small cafeteria poll machine stacked neatly from left to right. With my Asian look a Chinese worker came and helped me with the process of flexing my rights. With the curtain pulled behind me, I cranked the red level to my right to prepare myself and switches X for candidates. Finally done with my selection, it was time to claim my prize and crank to the left for my prize. Opening the soft flexible gates left me with such pride drawing a smile on my face. Just one more thing to do before my day is complete. I had to explore a bit more of what Pershing had become. Everything was cleaner, but the bathroom still needed fixing a lot worse than Hunter college's bathroom.

At the strike of 11pm, news spread that it was clear that Obama had won. I was relieved that finally perhaps life would become better. I hope Obama would contribute to US as how Wilson influenced the world with Wilsonian. Overall, a good day out of the many bad weeks.
