So I watched all of the Presidential Inauguration from the comfort of my own home.
In regards to the speech, I must say, Obama still has the charisma of...I really don't know what. He has his own level of charisma. It was a good speech and had some really high points, though the analysts were quick to point out that he borrowed from some of his campaign speeches. (Hey, it's been done in the past. He's only human.)
And while the real highlight for me was when he said near the end of the speech that how his grandfather might not have been served in a restaurant and yet he can stand in front of millions of people and take the oath of office of the president, another high point for me was the classical piece that was performed.
Why?
YO YO MA.
Do you know how much I love that man? Cello for the win, kthnx.
*ahem*
Bur yes, it was a good ceremony, save for the whole Chief Justice flubbing the oath and whatnot. I was very proud and happy throughout.
Congrats, President Obama.
