What a pleasant surprise,Obama really did win. The meese in Alaska have gotta be wary again though,Caribou Barbie a.k.a. Bible Spice a.k.a. Sarah Palin is back! I was watching CNN and the right-wingers were quite sore losers though they tried hard to appear gracious. I don't even remember any time in which the entire world was as euphoric as now over the election of any leader. That said, he has sky high expectations to live up to.He has to fix the economy,win the war on terror,heal racial divides and turn water to wine among others.
He just picked Rahm Emmanuel as his Chief-of-Staff, which is interesting.Interesting because,in Hebrew, Rahm and Barack are translated as lightning and thunder. That's like friggin' cool. Besides i wanna hear Rahm speak,he's apparently full of profanities. That is like even cooler. I was at an uncle's place and one of my relatives was genuinely wondering if Rahm was of Indian descent cause' his name sounded Indian. Seriously.
The elections are over and I have nothing to live for. I shall spend the rest of my days left on Earth pondering my cause. Only pondering,i don't wanna discover my calling of course. That'd be too much work to do.
Barack gave an awesome speech as usual,but just imagine it in a Singaporean context.. I saw an adaptation in Today paper by a journalist named Phin, and it was quite funny. I wish i could give my own version of the speech,but i just read the manuscript and that is a challenge beyond even me. But i still hope to attempt it sometime in the near future.
And a note to my tagboard Ob@m@ regarding your last tag, I'm always ready,available and willing. ;)
