So tell us of your joy and woe, and see the stories in your eyes.

        Day one? Down. What do I say? Tough day. Lots of insecurities coming out. But you know what? I did it. I knocked on doors. I spoke to voters. I got the cops called on me. I changed somebody's mind.
     My brain is dead. I can't even fathom where to start with today. I feel like my life changed so quickly that I'm still processing. No homesickness yet. But preparing for it. After living alone for more than a year it's weird to be in a house with somebody else. It's even weirder to think I don't know where I'm sleeping tomorrow night.
    Flexibility with a smile. That was emphasized today, and it's true. I've always prided myself on my adaptability. But part of me is scared that when charged with a task that I'll fail. But I can't believe that. Because then I will.
    Wisconsin is crucial. There are many paths to victory. But they all start with Wisconsin. Theoretically guys, I could make the difference in this election. I mean, in the end I'm a tool of this campaign. And this campaign is made of people owning it, owning their vote, owning their future. It's a humbling experience.
   I want to thank every voter I meet. Without them there is no campaign, and I remain where I was. Even the angry Romney supporters. The ones who so violently wanted me to be silenced that they called the police on me. Without them I have no job.

     Today I spoke with a voter who was undecided. She didn't think Obama was the best path for this country to take. I spoke with her, and got her to sign the above pledge card. It's a weird thing, changing minds. But in the end I don't so much change them as point out what they already knew. It's a weird thing to be valued for my mind.
     I never thought my story made me special. Working a job after college like the one I did seemed to make me average. But I'm beginning to see how my experiences and the way I'm able to relate them can make a difference in this world. And it's an awesome feeling.
   I'm not being coherent. I'm exhausted, overwhelmed, humbled, excited, and scared all at once. Michelle Obama recently said something along the lines of when you go through an open door to success you don't shut it behind you. I believe in that. I believe in helping eachother to better not only ourselves, but our world. I believe in opening doors for everybody.
