Learning that Hilary Clinton and Barack Obama are running for presidenthas been pleasurable and painful because this has never happened in the history of the United States.
It is pleasurable because having a woman run for president is very exciting . She is a strong woman that has experience running a state. So hearing her come up with new ideas is great. Seeing that an African American is also running for president is exciting and new to the U.S
It is painful for me to see Obama be a head in the election. I don't believe that Obama has enough experience yet to run America. Even though I think it is great that as an African American her is still running and not letting any racial comment affect him in this election
Having a woman and an Afrian American man both run ning for president is both pleasurable and painful. I believe this is what America needs to show people that we can deal with change.

400 Words: ON MY WAY TO SCHOOL
On my way to schol today it wasn't raining, and i was very happy. Like every morning when I am on my way to school me and my sister are either listening to the radio or talking about the latest celebrity gossip. Today our ride was fun. we found ourselfs listening to KIIS f.m the radio station. We were excited to hear that one of the workers form the radio station was going to be in our city tomorrow morning. Not knowing where they were going to be, me and my sister already decided that we were going to be there bright and early.
After hearing that announced me and my sister were wide awake listening to the newest celebrity music and the latest gossip world today. My sister had told me that we were going to wake up at 4:30 in the morning to go to church with our mom and that we'll just stay up and listen to find out where they were going to be. I was laughing because i really didnt expect my sister to say "lets wake up early on our day off".
I was getting kind of hungry ans wanted to stop and get something to eat, but i had remembered
that at the daycare the children are going to have breakfast so i'll just eat with them. Trying to
take my mind off of food i sang along to one of the songs they were playing .
I started to laugh at my sister when she got very excited to hear one of her favorite songs. She started singing very loudly and evn though she was driving she was doing a little dance in her seat.
i was remembering back to last night when she was really upset because she wanted to buy tickets to a Jonas Brothers concert. She was looking on e-bay, debating if she can afford them. So hearing them on the radio made excited.
Once I was 5 minutes away from the school it started to sprinkle. i was a little upset, thinking it was goin to pour and i was going to get soaked. Luckily the sprinkles stopped and the sky cleared up a little. When I approached the school I waited in the car for a few minutes. Knowing that I had work study so early in the morning really didnt make me too ahppy. i realized that if i didnt get out of the car soon i'll be late, so i got out of work and headed for work.

Two things that disappointed me during the holidays
Every year my holidays are spent filled with family, friends and not to mention tons of gifts. this year was the total opposite. Two things that disappointed me this year were not having money to buy gifts for my family and not being able to spend enough time with my twin sister.
Every year my mom makes sure that me and my twin get everything we want for Christmas. In the past, my twin sister and i always had a job during the holiday, so we always had money to buy gifts for our family. This year was different. My sister was the only one with the job, so when it came to handing out presents I was the only one not giving anything. I felt disappointed in myself because i seen how happy everyone was to give their presents to people and here i ws just sitting and watching.
This year since my sister had a job, she was working all the time. She was hardly ever home and when she was, she was either sleeping or getting ready for work. When the week of Christmas came, she was the busiest. She would work long hours and never really had time to spend time with me and my family.Christmas day was the worst. She was supposed to have the day off, but unfortunately her manager called her at the last minute to cover fofr someone. She couldn't say no, so she went into work. Thta night she didn't come home till 11 o'clock at night. She wasn't there to have Christmas dinner with me and my family. I was really disappointed but i know that she had no control over her work hours.
Not being able to spend as much time as i would have liked with my sister and not having any money to buy my family gifts were the two things that disappointed me during the holidays.
