It's been an amazing 21 months and finally we have a new President: Barack Obama. I won't pretend to be eloquent but the best moment of today is realizing that it is also my grandma's 90th birthday. I know she was watching over the proceedings:) The second best part: giving the news to my parents at 8pm PST that Barack Obama had secured enough of the electoral college to be declared our 44th President. There were shouts of joy and then silence on the other end of the line. I thought my parents fainted. It felt special to celebrate with them.
