Senza dubbio

My election experience was very different than what I’ve heard/read so far from those in America.
We went to bed wondering who it would be, our host dad said, “Obama, é certo.”
We slept while Americans got to poll watch and experience the excitement.
On the way to school we looked at a newspaper, but it had been printed before anything was certain.
Emily’s host mom had woken up in the morning and told her who had won and she told us on our way to school.
Then those of us not in 101 all had a discussion with our teachers in Italian about the presidential changement.
The Italians all think it’s a really big deal that he is African American and that it will unite America. But it doesn’t matter what the color of his skin is, that’s the whole point. The point is what his policies and plans for America are. I do think it’s great that America is not afraid to vote for someone who is not the typical Caucasian, but that should be expected, not a big deal. It was only a matter of time.
That aside, I think he’ll do good things. I know he has some ideas that are scary but so does everyone. And do presidential candidates ever do the things they say they’re going to do, anyway? Besides, all we can do is play the hand we’re dealt and he is president now so I plan on supporting him.
I think the fact he got such a margin of people to vote for him says a lot about his character, which can actually go a long way for a president.

Yesterday:

Sad Things That Happened:

.Backpack got soaking wet in the rain
.Found out our Branch President Missionary is getting transferred
.Peter told us a story about a dead baby bird
.Told me the last drawing I drew was my worst one yet
.Can’t sign up for classes because of some stupid health plan misunderstanding
.Missing poll watching for the election

Happy Things That Happened:

.Wrote songs that ended up being ridiculous
.Got to talk with the missionaries and this amazing girl who is investigating the church
.Talked to my mom
.5/5 on online religion quiz
.Asking the Magico 8 Ball questions with Luigia.
Will Luigia come to America to visit Kendis? Senza alcun dubbio.

Also, really sad to find out that I'm missing the Diantha's Crossing premiere.
If you go, just know that it is me (and Whitney) pulling the wagon that has dead Joseph and Hyrum in it. AND that I made some of the ballots that get lit on fire. AND that I assisted in feeding everyone you see (or don't see) in that movie. Oh, and I was a voice extra in the mob scene too.

My advice for the day:
stick it together with tape, the tape of love (it's sticky stuff)
