Bush Won!!!

Election night I found myself at one of the funniest gatherings I have ever in my lifetime attended. Kristen and Joanna (you may rememer them from the summer postings in Oxford) had a Bush 04 party in their apartment, which is less than a block from where I live. They went all out and I had a blast!

The first 12 people through the door received a t-shirt with a large "W" on the front, but even if you were not one of the lucky few, you were still invited to "pin the botox injection on John Kerry." Upon entering I was handed a very festive cupcake-- red velvet cake, blue icing, and a large white "W" on top (it was delicious!). The entire apartment was covered in red and blue W's, and there were posters upon which to place the states as the results came in. The apartment was packed with Bush fans-- we conservatives are forced to have small secret gatherings such as this due to our current collegiate condition (i.e. attending the most liberal college in the country).

I had a great time- and it seemed as though everyone else did too. The had an impressive crowd of loyal Bush fans, and it is always nice to find others like us on this campus. :) Kristen and I looked at some video from this summer, namely our "experience" in front of the Eifel Tower, and now I just want to go back... not so much to Paris- but abroad, definitely. I love America with all my heart, but I think I left part of it in England. Anyways... it was really great to see my girls again and to remember old times. And you know- it doesn't get much more American than a red-white-and blue cupcake and a Coca-Cola. Thanks, ladies- you made election night quite an experience! :)
