2008 年的派對在我家裏搞,地方大很多,我卻只邀請了最要好的十來個朋友,氣氛不算熱鬧,但緊張依舊,大家一方面盼望黑人兼自由派的 Obama 勝出,另一方面害怕假如年紀老邁的 McCain 當選,在任期屆滿前歸西,那不知所謂的 Sarah
Palin 便會當總統。結果是 Obama 擊敗 McCain,我們都歡喜若狂,一起聽 Obama 獲選後的演說時,我見到有幾個朋友眼泛淚光。
我本來打算這次總統選舉也在家裏開派對,可是,在發邀請電郵時才記起家裏已沒有電視頻道;如果不能在電視機前一起看選舉結果,搞派對就沒有意思了。還以為今年沒有選舉派對可去,卻收到系主任的電郵,說會在他家裏搞選舉派對,邀請我去 --- 我當然說好!希望今次的結果是 four more years of Obama。
今次會唔會買Romney不倒翁?

刪除問那星點解要照耀 千秋也未疲倦
回覆刪除為怕海漆黑裡寂寞 星光給慰藉半點
問那海點解要拍岸 千秋也未停斷
為怕山孤單與寂寞 海風給慰問每天
一生中總有寂寞 點樣將痛苦隔斷
海風解我心裡悶 星光解睏倦半點
問世間點解有寂寞 悲傷掛在人面
為世間不足與戰亂 憂傷將快樂蓋掩
問世間點解有戰亂 千秋也未停斷
為野心中有霸念 千秋將快樂蓋掩
貪心不足惹恨事 悲哀中人為作亂
悲傷皆有貪念 知足將快樂再添

I know, but you need a bigger screen for such a party.
刪除I am now in one of the more conservative states (flying home in the morning). Had lunch with a colleague yesterday and asked if he would vote for Obama.
回覆刪除'Shhhh.... I will but this is a very conservative campus... eventhough most colleagues would probably vote for obama...
Why the university would take a political stand... always puzzle me...
Texas?

刪除RandomCoil, aAs a Californian, I feel for ya man! What about moving to Austin instead? I guess it'd be slightly better in that city because of the creative and tech industries.

我反而唔明﹐點解美國大學感覺上多數都係民主黨擁躉?
回覆刪除當然﹐我都講過我支持奧巴馬連任﹐只係因為我係中國人﹐支持原因當然不同(閃)
大學教授多數是自由派。

Whoever gonna cut funding is a no no... We have to invest into our future!
刪除I can't understand those voting for Romney! He jz changes his statements and announce things citizens want to hear, so fake!If Obama wins, I would definitely celebrate!
回覆刪除I gotta say, Obama clearly knows what voters want to say but at least (he makes you think) he is genuine. And if someone needs to give a good speech, he should learn from Obama.
A friend and her husband have been hosting their debate parties. For election night, we will move the party over to another friend's house because of his big screen TV. Four years ago, it was a triumphant but surprisingly short gathering. And I would never forget the night of the Bush/Gore election - I was following the coverage through the night by myself in my dorm room, watching the networks following Foxnews' declaration for Bush's "victory" with disbelief.
