I have :cry: all night long and didn't get much sleep. Both of my eyes swollen and they are so sore that I won't be able to take the rest of my exams. Both Professors know that I was fighting for our party and I am calling in sick or dead or something like that. LOL
I can't go in tonight I am afraid to come home after dark on my own I might get into trouble because I started drinking a few minutes ago and I don't really drink. :beer:
I was seeing everyone walking to and from class, but it was so eerily silent. It was like the president, er, a well loved president had just died. So quiet.
Right before I left at 10:00 PM last night I heard them talking about Bush winning. I must have walked around the block at least 3 or 4 times trying to figure out what I should do. I didn't know if i should take one bus or take the train home and I couldn't make my mind up. Everyone I passed on the way home looked like someone had died. I passed a Borders bookstore and I stopped in for a coffee and several people were hugging each other and looking down. The workers behind the registers were standing in one corner and the looks on their faces were so sad. I knew then that we had lost the election.
When I got home I stood out in front of my place and I didn't want to go inside. After I got inside I heard a few more people saying that Bush had won. I turned the key and entered my apartment and my family was in tears even the freeper. I had to stop my Dad because he was going to kick the TV in at one point during the night after they called Ohio for Bush. He use to live in Akron and he worked in one of the mills when he was a teenager. He was in total disbelief that Ohio had went to Bush.
It's hard to watch a grown man cry and he didn't want us to see but he left the room with tears running down his face. My Dad was in the service when he was young and he was stationed in Texas. He still can't believe that fascists are running our country now.
I was so tired and the professor was covering the same old shit we covered last week and the professor has a really thick Texas drawl and the room was 15 degrees too warm and I had a bad case of intestinal gas...
10. I skipped out today. I just can't deal with it
I can't deal with all the little freepers and their smug attitudes...I don't know what to do about tomorrow. I have a big paper due tomorrow, and I just don't know how I can concentrate enough to finish it.
:grouphug: for all us college kids, indeed for everybody.
