I am full of hope with yesterdays inaugaration (I’ve been told by my elders recently that I’m just young and optimistic…two qualities I personally hope to hold on to for the rest of my time here). The whole event had me blubbering and ironically I was listening to it on NPR outside of the Grocery Outlet where I was then going to purchase all the discounted organic food I could afford on my really tight budget. It’s been predicted by a well known man with a 93% accuracy rate that it’ll take the obama administration three weeks to turn the the vibe from the last 7 years around and see the economy start improving. I hope he’s right!

Andrea,

People of all ages are optimistic that President Obama will create lasting change. I have faith he will and I’m looking forward to the months and years to come. ;)
