the high and the low

My flist is spammed with news and congratulations of Barack Obama's winning. And I'm ecstatic. I'm not an American. But since so long that American president has effected the world. So I feel I need to pay attention and be involve to what happen.

But among the joy and congratulations is the disappointment. It looks like PROP8 will be passed. If you didn't know what is PROP8, it's 'Proposition 8: Right to same-sex marriage'. And if it passed, that'll make earlier same-sex marriages illegal. At this moment, it's 53% to 47% with YES votes in the lead. :(

As I just said in my comment: I didn't even knew that it's already decided... and it's sad to hear! I've really thought people in the 21 st century are waaay more open minded.

But YAY TO OBAMA!

smooches you! ♥

It's discrimination! And if they voted a black, son of an immigrant for President. Why are they so close minded when it comes to gay and lesbian!?!

SMOOCHES YOU RIGHT BACK!!!

AND I MISS YOU!!!

The world is sadly dependent upon the result of this election. Thank goodness the one elected is what we expected. :)

I just told my 8 year-old nephew that "the history was made today" and he said he knew. He knew who Obama, McCain and Palin are. And that is, my friend, the confirmation that the WHOLE world is actually watching this election.

PROP 8 sucks so much . . . :-(

And it's PASSED. CA, you suck.

But I think it's far from over. There are already hundreds of people form a protest against this.

Let's hope for it! *sighs*
