Oh!

I am glad beyond words that Obama has made it. It makes up for the mighty disappointment of Al Gore having had to bow out in 2000.

Though the Democrat win doesnt bode well for India, since US companies that outsource work (to countries like India) will be taxed more.

Ash finally got ready to re-enter school but unfortunately the van did not turn up. A teacher in his school, suffering from cancer, passed away yesterday. It can be so disappointing when you spend 45 minutes getting an obstinately sleepy boy out of bed, brushing his teeth, oil-massaging him, bathing him, then moisturising his body before the water dries out, dressing him up and feeding him (the most difficult part), giving his medicines and packing his bag with books, snacks and water before the van honks at the door.

Mia who has a bad cough hasnt attended school this week.

This American is VERY glad Obama will be our president as well :)

We are ready for a transformation...not just a change.

A teacher named Prasanna Mathew of the CSI church I think.
Jen: The newspapers here are all full of Obama news. He is creating a wave here too. I guess the whole world is looking at him with hope - for better relations, for a better world...
