watching the inauguration and all of the celebrations today was pretty exciting. it’s rare that you watch something that you know will be a historic moment, something that will be in history books and talked about forever. and i’m excited about this new president and the changes he might bring to this country.

i also like the idea that my child will be born when there’s a black president in office. what was something i never thought i would see in my lifetime, will be something that they take completely for granted. for their world it will be the way it was. in my life i haven’t really seen too much racism, although my mom’s generation definitely did and it just gets exponential the further you go back. failing economy and everyone (including me) worrying about their jobs aside, i’m excited about the future.
