Where Were You When Barack Obama Became President?

I was sitting on the loveseat in my living room. I had a late breakfast and was eating it in front of the television. I was holding the rosary that my friend gave me as a graduation gift and a small American flag. When he was sworn in, I stood up. Everything seemed so surreal. I was so excited when I saw President Obama and Mr. Bush walking out together; I kept thinking Mr. Bush is now the former president of the United States. I laughed as people that were there sang "Na na na na, na na na na, hey hey hey GOODBYE" as Mr. Bush did his final flyover Washington. I ran to my computer so I could see the White House webpage updated with our new president's image and agenda.

Where were you?
