My inauguration experience
So Tuesday pretty much kicked so much ass.
I found out I was gonna be in English class at noon. I did not have very high hopes for watching it, since my English class is a bunch of freaking cement-heads who could care less about the President of the United States. I have a feeling I'm the only one in that class that truly cares about where this country is going. I asked Ms. Black if she was gonna put on the news. She said she was.
HOLY SHIT MS. BLACK, I FUCKING LOVE YOU.
In the cafe, Pointek put on all the TVs so we could watch the pre-swearing-in stuff. I couldn't keep my eyes of the tube. I heard some idiot call my name, but I didn't turn around. I was too concentrated on the TV. Anyone else agree with me that the Obama girls are so goddamn CUTE??? I haven't seen kids that cute since my twin cousins were born. Youngest kids to live in the White House since Amy Carter, and man, I love 'em. I'd pay for an American Girl doll of Sasha or Malia.
After lunch, I raced back to my English classroom in like fifteen seconds. Ms. Black had already put on the TV, and it was on full blast. I sat down, not taking my gaze off the screen for even a second. Ms Black even postponed a HUCK FREAKING FINN QUIZ for us to watch the inauguration. Epic win.
The class was dead quiet the entire period. I thought Gabriel's horn had been blown. My English class is NEVER, emphasis on NEVER, quiet. Ms Black's had to yell at us almost every day this year for being too loud.
I noticed the flub that the Chief Justice made right away. I've had the Oath of Office memorized since I was seven years old. At first I thought that the Oath had been changed or something, but than I realized "wtf, that dude's a moron!!"
The bell rang in the middle of Obama's speech. Ms Black said that she'd write out passes to anyone that wanted to stay for the whole thing. GUESS WHO WAS THE ONLY ONE THAT DID. Have I mentioned I hate my English class? They have absolutely no idea of what's important. All they care about is makeup and sex.
So I walked into history ten minutes late, but got a reprieve from my history teacher since she'd figured I'd stayed in my previous class till the President finished. It's times like that I love being who I am, I can be late to class 'cause I was watching the PRESIDENT. Anyone else, she wouldn't've believed. But me? Sure, go ahead, waltz in ten minutes late.
As soon as I got home, I flipped on all the TVs. I was in my parents' room when I heard about Teddy. I screamed so loud I thought my ears would explode. This is the last of the Kennedy boys: my heroes, my icons. I don't wanna even begin to think of my reaction when he finally goes.
So, that's my experience on 1-20-09. One of the best days of my freaking life.
