Political debate at McDonalds?

I know that everyone is probably like: "yeah I was busy, I didnt have time I was busy" but literally this time thats the only thing I can say cause i've had so much to do these past weeks and the next two weeks I have 7 assignments I need to turn in and thats plus homework as in reading I-dont-even-know how many pages for each subject, But I still wanted to tell you whats going on and Im sorry I havent written anything[:

So yesterday we had this parent-teacher-student-meeting-thing like we had to go to school at 7pm for a meeting for parents and students and since we were off at 3.30 and it takes me an hour to get home I went with Helena and we were supposed to go to her house, but we ended up at McDonalds with Nicklas.
        So all three of us went and got McDonalds and when we were on our way up the stairs we hear these voices talking really loud into a microphone and when we got up there we realized it was a political debate, cause we're electing new mayors these days in all municipalities all over the country (which is a great way to get free stuff even when you're under 18) we got up and sat as far away as possible and I do not know why they decided to do it at McDonalds, but they did. A guy with a mic went around and asked people if they had any questions and we were pointing at Nicklas laughing and he was like "do you have any questions" and Nick was like "No, No" and then he looked at me and said "what about you pointing fingers, do you have any questions?" and I went "I'm not 18 yet" and he's like "if you were do you know who you'd vote for?" and I went "no, or not really" which is probably the WORST thing you could say at a political debate you should just say "No" and he was like "Why dont you know?" or someting like that and I was like "I dont know" and my face turned RED. Well a little later one of the people debating took the microphone and went down to our end and asked people if they were voting and why they were or werent, but no one wanted to tell her, then she asked what would be a bad thing about not voting and looked at us and I said "well I'm not 18 yet, but if you don't vote even if you can you wont be able to complain, like you can't say that it's bad they did that cause maybe if you voted it wouldnt be like that" and she was like, "YES exactly" and then she went back and later I was like "Okay I have a question" and then guy went over to and I asked about the new school system they just made in Denmark that not many people like where the kids has to go to school deom 8-4 everyday and of course they didnt answer my question they're politicans, but still I asked again and they didnt really asnwer directly. Well we have fun and now I can say I've been in a political debate on McDonalds! :b 

Later we went back to the school and hour before the meeting because we didnt have time to go to Helena's without having to go back to school as soon as we got there. 
When the meeting was over I went home with my parents and went straight to bed. 

Oh just before I finish another good thing about elections is all the free stuff cause they're all like "dont forget to vote" and I go "sure" and walk away with my free coffee and cinnamon buns[: 

Well I hope you're all enjoying the winter taking over heard it was snowing in NY I wish here it's just switching between being cold and less cold no snow! :[ which is kinda sad, but its almost Christmas so its all good[:
