The Day Has Come
January 20, 2009
Howdy doo observers or internet browsers….
My name is Nasser Baker from the class of 2016. For the past five days we have been in Washington, DC touring fun and exciting places. For example, we have been to The Air and Space museum, The Holocaust museum ,and The Chocolate City tour. As you can see we have been typing blogs every night or day about how we feel about the things we do. As you know today was one of the most important days in the whole wide world.
Me and my teammates were some of the people who were inside of the parade section of the event. There were millions of people there for the Inauguration. I felt paranoid when we got on the metro train, when we went through security ,and when we were entering the parade section. There were so many people crammed in one little spot. I also felt scared a little bit about the people yelling at the security. I also felt bad for the people who weren’t being very patient in line. They were so impatient to the point where they just took the chance of leaving the most important event in the world, just because it was crowded.
So when we got to the end of the tunnel I felt free, and I was very happy and excited. But I wasn’t too excited when we had to go through more security and it was even more crowded. We could handle it since we went through the first crowd. When I saw the second crowd of people it just killed my whole moment of happiness and freedom. I felt very bad.
After wards we had to walk our way through the parade section of the inauguration. It was not difficult for us. Even though there were many people around us, we were still very cold. The people that were standing on the mall were very loud and excited. You could tell from how loud the crowd was. It was very shocking to me. To conclude this, I would like to thank the people that read my blog every night, thank you.
