im sooo darn proud of myself yessirey!
I walked with a friend. Walk wasn't too bad considering we were about to make history(vote in a very historic presidential race, and it was our first times voting ever)
So we walk to this building.. Ward School. Ward 7 Precinct 3
Walk down a flight of steps and turn into the place we would be voting...
It looked like it was straight out of a movie.. really though... like old school OLD SCHOOL gymatorium. like it was as big as two BC quad-dorms. wood and painted red. floors with numbers around it. ropes on the ceiling looking like they were ready for ppl to climb them... honestly i never had to climb a single rope in my Phys-Ed career, i thought it was only in movies... but apparently ppl do this in real life..
newhooo i walk in tell them my address and get my ballot...
did my thing (which took awhile bcuz i was still unsure... but i made a decision none the less) and passed in my ballot to this electric-ballot-eater thing.
then i just stood there and took it all in
this was my first time voting EVER... this only happens once in a life time (it being the first time). it was a feeling that i can't really explain... i was proud, overwhelmed, happy, sad, just everything...
i mean even if the popular vote doesn't end up getting counted and it's only the electoral college and/or congress... it still felt good to vote... it was like i had a say in the way my life was being handled...
newhoo i voted :-)
Facebook voter count now: 2899528 + 1(ME!)
peaceee
