2008 Democratic National Convention

I can not wait until November, when I will able to cast my vote for Sen. Barack Obama as the new President of the United States of America.

From the convention, here's Sen. Teddy Kennedy:



Here's Michelle Obama's speech:



Her speech was impeccable, flawless and it made me cry through out. Watching these two speeches that I've posted above, it makes me proud to be from America. That these people have dedicated their lives for the greater good, for their country. And it makes me feel as though this country has so much more to offer, and with Barack Obama as the new President of the United States, this country will turn a new corner and really come out even better.

This country doesn't need another 4-8 years of the same Bush policies.

$46 or $11

I went to school today with dad to buy books for class. Total cost for everything was nearly $200, but I didn't buy all the books I needed yet.

One of the books I needed, Euripides Bacchae, cost me $46!!!!! And the book is like a 1/4 inch thick!! So then I went to Borders.com and I found it for $11!!!! That's an incredible difference! And I also got 30% off the book, because I had a coupon. So I have ordered the book for under $8 with free shipping to the store.

It's unbelievable that this book was going for $46.

Insane.

Anyways, my sunburn still hurts, and my face is yucky because I put aloe on it.

I'm excited for the Democratic Convention this week. It's going to be crazy!

McCain is trying to be fierce and tear the Democrats apart because of previous things that were said. And they weren't only said because the candidates were trying to make themselves look good.

BLAH! Politics are nuts...

Ok, that's al I have for now..

P.S. AND HOPEFULLY THE BOOK DOESN'T LOOK LIKE CRAP!!!! But for $8, I don't care lol.
