Everything Has Changed



Barack Obama is the newly elected president. AHHHHH!!!! That was what most of us were doing here at UMass when we found out. We were screaming, crying, dancing, and watching in disbelief and joy.



As the New York Times put it, racial barriers have fallen because of him. It's history in the making. What an absolutely amazing time to be here at UMass, with my generation's first vote. I am so proud to have cast my vote and been a part of all of this.

I am so excited for everything to start changing. As a friend of mine said, we are a country again. Obama has united us all. We are proud to be Americans now, and are proud to have Obama as our leader.

I like the last picture the most, it says a lot with the poster on the desk and your friend intently watching the t.v.
