2008 Election Thoughts
OBAMA!!!
Words cannot describe how excited I am right now. It feels great knowing that my first time to vote counted towards the election of America's first African American president. All political ties aside, it's incredible that we're able to witness this landmark event in history. In the span of our parent's lifetime, this country has gone from ( Read more... ) -

It's been about a year since my last post (literally), but in my defense my life has been hectic to the extreme. And somehow it still contains all the stupid high school-esque drama I had hoped to escape in college. Oh well, I suppose some people never grow of their immaturity ( Read more... ) -

It was pure torture, having to be "Texas Friendly" when my head was about to explode from all of the anticipation.
Finally, my shift ended, and ( Read more... ) -
Fornication Upon Command of the King
