Um...yeah...wow. I haven't been on here in years it feels like! Last post was when Obama got elected into office. Yeah crazy stuff happened since he's in the white house now. That one press conference he did at night around 8-9 pm hour about how congress needs to approve the stimulus bill - that was funny as hell. But Dow Jones is down and my 401k looks like shit. At least I'm 23 and can recover. People in there 60s are peed-o'd cause they can't retire cause their 401k took a dump. Anyway off this topic now...
Christmas was cool. I got a Dale Jr drawing/poster by Louis hanging on my wall with my other nascar gear, My new Cannon Power shot SX10IS, [found out they are coming out with a new one that is HD 1080p grrr] some clothes, Hello Kitty button earrings from QVC, and a new Samsung A550 32" 1080p tv. I got the sound to not sound like a tin can. Still have it after the holiday return policy ;)
Um...what else...*thinks*
Yeah, went to the Marlins fan fest with Crystal, her boyfriend, and Keisha. I couldn't believe how all the players remembered her! I don't know the players well since I don't go to much games but I do know what they drive! haha I got a Marlins hat and had some of them sign it. The ones I managed was John Baker, Alfredo Amezaga, Gabby Sanchez, [who looks super cute and I got a pic with him!] Hanley Ramirez [don't know how I got it. right time, right place!] and yeah a few others but can't recognize their chicken scratch! I missed Dan Uggla for the 3rd time now! I was so close but got AMAZING pics.
It was a good time to test the camera from afar [they didn't want us to take pics in the line] and WOW they came out awesome! My camera is the shit, yall!! I should upload pics. Crystal is wanting me to go to opening day vs. Nationals. I told her we should take the day off and do the whole tailgate thing and not rush like last year.
We're planning Daytona this year. I found the Coke seats behind pit road for $305ish. I want those seats plus parking! No reply from Joey yet. Hopefully soon!
Oh and the 500 "Big One". It's both their faults. I'm a fan of Red Bull but BV needs to grow up. Dega 06 sounds familiar. If you don't know what I'm talking, about you live under a rock. EVERYONE talked about it.
Also, MAC has their Hello Kitty line and OMG I <3 it! I got all three nail polishes, lip conditioner in 'popstar', make-up case and a hello kitty tote! AHHH!!! So cute! I wanted the train case and the purse mirror but SOLD OUT! Damn.
Yeah I gotta show you pics off the camera. It's the shiznit yall.

Obama is our new President!
Wooohooo my vote actually counted! Finally, the race barrier has been broken and history is made with our first black president. Thank you Florida for giving Obama the win. This is a change we need and finally got. Rallying with supporters last Wednesday and showing how strong we are here in South FL for Obama showed in the polls.
I'm about to head to Grant Park to talk to everyone gathered there, but I wanted to write to you first.
We just made history.
And I don't want you to forget how we did it.
You made history every single day during this campaign -- every day you knocked on doors, made a donation, or talked to your family, friends, and neighbors about why you believe it's time for change.
I want to thank all of you who gave your time, talent, and passion to this campaign.
We have a lot of work to do to get our country back on track, and I'll be in touch soon about what comes next.
But I want to be very clear about one thing...
All of this happened because of you.
Thank you,
Barack
That was an e-mail he sent to his supporters who signed up for his updates.
I'm so glad that McCain lost. I could not stand to have a dumb chick in the office nor another republican who will flush this country down more than it's current state now.
With that said, i'm going to bed.

waiting in the parking lot
After twenty min. Trying to look for the car, were now standing next to it because it's gridlocked.
Ok now were moving but still.
Anyway, it was total chaos you won't believe. I don't think I can go to another rally unless it was organized. This is my first rally and hopefully not the last.
When we were standing in line when the back of the line met us. Then they all blended in with us and totally pissed off everyone. When we got in it around 6:30ish, they checked our bags and totally ransacked my bag. After running around levels, we made it in club level where the bar is behind us. Our seats were the last row viewing obama from the backside. A couple of people came out including former governer Bob Grahem. Joe Biden made a 10 min speech following a 30 min speech from the man himself. The place totally lit up when he came out. After the speech, we left and lost the car. We waited about a half hour after the fact and high tailed it out.
Did you know that his supporters are dumb driving wise? Holy hell.
Oh and another thing. I disagreed with obama on one thing: making hybrid cars in america and not over seas. The only way you can get american hybrids cars is asking Japan and Toyota to borrow their stuff. I like my import and plan to keep it that way!
..:edit:..
Dad and I was talking about Daytona and how that was peaches compared to this. There was over 100,000 people in Daytona Beach at a race track and decent parking with a good escape route. Dad says he will take Daytona over today any day. I told him lets go back next year and gave me a look of 'I don't think so'.
Forgot to metion that the audio sucked and was hard to hear him at times.
If you watched his 30 min. ad time on a couple of major news networks, the last three minutes was him at the arena. We were sitting behind the flag so I couldn't see my ass anywhere on TV haha

We are ready to walk into the bank atlantic center. It is so chaotic it isn't funny. Very unorganized. So many people turned out here just to support him. I'm sitting somewhere in the upper 300s by club. I'm sitting behind obama with a good view of his teleprompter. Good seats are still here in the upper 400s. Time to take pics now :)

Waiting at the Obama rally
I'm standing in the longest line outside Bank Atlantic center. There is two lines. One with tickets and the other line on the other side of the arena (where I am in) where we are standing deep. I hope we will get in even if we are in the 400s. Doors open at 4:30. We'll see if dad and I get in.
