Random note now that Obama is President

It has been really interesting for me to see just how engaged people are overseas with Obama. My students absolutley love him. This week the first years were learning 'can, can't, cannot' and every time we'd do 'Yes we can' invariably 'OBAMA!' would pop up. It was also on the cover of the paper this morning and many of my students were talking about it around school. I find it awesome that just by getting elected many people (certainly not all) feel a renewed sense of hope for America.
