Rock the Vote

I voted today. And by my icon, you can tell who I voted for.

You know...this has been a tough year, because there are parts of every campaign that I don't agree with. But when it all comes down to it...I can agree with more of what Barack Obama says as opposed to the others.

And he's brilliant. And I had the opporunity to voluteer for his campaign (read: he came to speak at the university I work for and I'm the special events guru at the moment...). And I can really stand behind him.

So...when your turn comes around. No matter who you vote for...VOTE!

Whew...it's over!

Barack Obama has left the campus. And is leaving the state to head back to Washington, D.C. Amazing. That's really the only word for it. He explained things that no other politician has explained quite like that. I was very proud to be a volunteer at this event. He really does believe that change can be made. And I believe that he can bring that change.

He's great with the public. He's excellent at asking questions and knew exactly how to answer them so EVERYONE could understand.

I knew this going in.

But...when you see it in person. Just...WOW!

Go Obama!

Here we go again...

A couple of weeks ago, the university that I work for...the one that I currently run special events for...brought in Chelsea Clinton to speak on behalf of the Clinton campaign.

Tomorrow...

Tomorrow we're bringing the community Barack Obama. Seriously. I spent much of today in meetings regarding the set-up and what all the volunteers need to be doing. Secret service was checking out the grounds, especially where the speach is going to be given. And it's just been insane. Seriously. There are so many rules that we didn't have to worry about with Chelsea because...well, this is Barack Obama.

So, into work I go tomorrow and will be spending a majority of my time inside the building working on the finishing touches before the crowds are let in. Two hours after that, Barack will show up and speak. Then...everyone leaves and that's that. [info]ladystarblade will probably be one of the first in line because...she's coming in with me to hear him talk. It really is going to be a long day.

And...after all that...somewhere in there...I have to study for my final exam on Thurdsay.

And then my BIG one on Tuesday.

Holy crap!

I need a vacation.

Seriously.
