Alrighty.. this even comes once every four years in the summer. Thankfully, they started right after my summer school ended so I could stay up late. Too bad for those in track school. That's only if they do watch it. Anyways, instead of recording every single event. I am just watching the ones I want. Which is basically all of them. I lived to watch the Gymnastics. And I just learned to appreciate the diving and synchronized diving. No, it's not because I was craving to see guys jumping around in tiny speedos (EWW!) but its actually crazy amazing how well they can dive. Even I learned how to judge it. As for swimming laps, wow. Go Micheal Phelps! I was sooo i-can't-believe-it when he won his (was it 7th or 8th gold) because it truly honestly looked like the other guy won. Do I personally think he is the Greatest Olympian around? Not really in the way that people label him for the reason that he had earned 8 gold medals in one olympic. It's not how many gold medals you received, its just your personality and talents that crown you the Greatest Olympian. But then again, he did earn all of that. so YAY! That must mean something right? Okay and about that Chinese gymnast? They looked younger than they said. That one chick looked at most fourteen, maybe even twelve, thirteen. The nerves just really got to them when they were shaky on the balance beam. My jaw dropped when some people fell off the high-low bars. Eek! I winced in pain! Dropping the baton in the relay racing. Ouch!

Can't wait for the closing ceremony... Another four more years. Hmm.. I can't believe I will have witnessed 4 Olympics in my lifetime. Or maybe two that I remember.
