Starting from the beginning

Ok, I vented yesterday on here and I know, for some of you, it wasn't a side that you would have liked to see but we have to be honest with ourselves, right?!
Since I will be back in the UK next weekend I guess I have to wrap up this story and let you know how things have been going and the nice experiences regardless of the FACEBOOK pictures right.
So the last I remember, is writing shortly before or after the elections that made Obama President of the United States.

It was a surreal moment wherever in the world you were watching the elections being broadcasted, and I know that many of you didn't sleep until after 4am; to see if he would make it.

I was only up until 2am I think and then spent the whole day on the laptop talking to people on msn, skype and facebook about the historic moment. I read newspaper reports and viewed opinion polls. It was a day well spent, even though it was touched by drama in and around South Carolina, who obviously had a McCain majority. Many different statemehts were made by various people about the African American population and the stigma's that were attached to Obama were down right uncalled for.
I heard of hostilities occurring on the USC campus, in classrooms, on the streets and all over certain parts of the country.These hostilities also filtered into my apartment, and that was a very interesting matter to resolve and I was proud of the stand point that I held.

But a statement was made by a student comedian, at the Talent show that was held to celebrate the birthday of the 'Q's Fraternity {blog on the sorority and fraternity life will soon come}. He called for the acceptance of the fact that Obama did not become President simply because of the overwhelming votes that he received from the African American and Latino population of the U.S as they consist of only less than 20% of the voerall U.S population and less than 30% of the 57% who voted for Obama.

I see my experience of the election as a miniscule incident that can be used to illustrate the wider issues that still exist with the United States and I am pretty sure that many people who are educated enough and not irrogant, will accept that Obama becoming President is a good thing, but there are still many different issues that the States need to address in regards to a vast majority of their citizens are treated { again another blog on the non- existent universal healthcare system and the educational system is in the wings people}.

OK, happy picture time
(need to find the pics I want to use LOL)
