Overheard in my Film class today:
"...and if Obama doesn't win? There's gonna be minorities marching in the streets down there!"
(Pause. People nearby nod.)
"...Hopefully with weaponry."
We were all so nervous in Film that our instructor asked one of the students with a wireless laptop to keep checking the election results in between our class discussions and the viewing of Hitchcock's Psycho. (Which, by the way, I've seen before. But it's much better the second time around, not being preoccupied with trying to get into the pants of the girl I first saw it with. But never mind.)
As the chain pulled Marion Crane's car from the swamp, the kid checking the results reported that it looked like a win for Obama, but I had to come here to the library and check it myself.
And my friends list is reporting that the weaponry WON'T be needed.
It's been declared a win for Obama.
God fucking damn. HE DID IT!
If you're not happy? Fine. Mourn in your own journal. Personally, I'm pretty pleased with America today. For pretty much the first time in eight years, it doesn't seem like a place the world should give up on if it only could.
And just so you guys know, the rest of the world is going to be pretty happy, too.
Oh, yes. And I passed all my midterms. Aced Film, in fact. *winks*
Good night, all!
