It was noticeable, that I wasn't as thrilled as most Hispanics who happened to encircle me at the Convention Center two years ago when I officially got my citizenship. I wasn't as appreciated as of now, realizing more and more of whoever the speaker it was behind the pulpit who emphasized so much on voting, what he was saying. I feel that it is such a priviledged duty - to voice out and make the vote count. Not that I want to be political, but as Christians, I find a lot of times, we ain't as concerned of our government and society as we should in the states, not just in Asia. Yes, God is in control, He does His 100%, but we also have the responsibilities in this country to do sth, our 100%.
Luckily, I was immediately eligible to have my first vote in 2004's election to support Bush! This year, unlike previous ones, I couldn't find anyone with informations to ask for opinions about this election. After spend time reading all the detailed pamphlets and all kinda ads I've received from mail in past few weeks, I'm proud to say that I'm a bit more knowledgeable of the pros & cons of the propositions now. =) Going to vote after work... I'm thankful!
**Btw, I do do things at my work.. not that I'm on internet all day long - for those who might notice that I post/reply during work hours~! ^^"**
