President Barack Obama

The Presidential Inauguration was yesterday and I was lucky enough to catch the main part of it before tuning in to the CNN/Facebook feed for the rest of the day. It was quite nerve-wrecking to be honest, especially when he chose to walk during the Inaugural Parade. For many reasons, being a fellow Punahou alum being one, it was a very prideful day. I followed this election closer than any before, and I think it's incredible that I have witnessed history in the making...and in a way that people haven't before. As my grandma oddly put it, "It was just...awesome," a word I don't think I've ever heard her use.
