SURE!!! The Olympics ROCK! But this year, I dunno, feels like im gonna miss so much because of the time difference. I mean, if there's like a competition at like 2 pm over there, the time will be 2 am over here and Im like sleeping or in school then lol.

But anyway!! I like all the sports but I especially watch the Athletics and the SWIMMING! Love that. Also the canoeing and gymnastics of course. But I guess we wont take any gold medal, all of our "golden hopes" have either become injured or quit.

Mostly looking forward to seeing if the States or China will win the medal-race.thing. Lol.

And the Olympics have BEGUN!!! Now the hard thing is gonna be to stay spoiler-free every day til it airs in the US. I'm gonna have to be careful online, lol.

Sucks about both Hamm twins pulling out. The US male gymnasts are gonna have a tough time. The women looked good in training! GO USA!

I watched the opening ceremony and then the bits where all the countries march in to the stadium, I caught GB come in and then got so bored, lol. I feel sorry for those dancers, they had to stand up dancing for hours!

The rowing race is on right now. GB was was head to head with someone (I forget who) but I switched it off =P

WOW that was an exciting men's team final in gymnastics! The Chinese were amazing, and I'm so proud of the US men! I screamed my head off for those high bar routines!

So excited for the women tomorrow, I hope bars goes better for everyone than it did on Sunday!
