YES! I just started crying at work for the exact same reason. Because i do not want to face them today i dont want to see the disappointment in their face. I feel like such a let down to them, like i shouldve done more.

I actually have 2 friends who are excited to go home and watch the announcement with their parents, but I don't know if I should call them now and let them know the bad news or just let them hear it during the Obama announcement.

I may just not call them, as who knows what Obama may truly announce, as I think its safest that way.

The announcement is so vague, you should explain it to them so that they know how to break it to their parents.

I actually did 30 minutes ago as one of them texted me and wasn't sure if she missed something. I explained everything to her, she was devastated.

Life will go on though, maybe immigration reform will pass within these next 2 years, who knows...

A lot more people will becoming out of the shadows so our movement will get bigger... There will be more of us fighting for those that got left behind. This is why we must continue to fight as one.
