As a Chinese person...f**k YEAH I'M PATRIOTIC. GO CHINA!!!!!!!
ZHONG GUO JIA YOU, AO YUN JIA YOU! You know I would type Chinese if I knew how. Sorry for the fob moment. I can't help it. The atmosphere is electric in HK! Haha people stop in the streets to watch the huge TVs in malls and cheer China on. FIRST GOLD FOR CHINA - girl from Guangzhou. Weightlifting. Friggin awesome. You know if it was Canada up against China, that I would TOTALLY cheer for China. Opening Ceremony: totally loved how they painted the thing RIGHT THERE. And then the athletes coloured in the bottom bit with their footprints. I thought the whole thing was really creative. The lighting of the Olympic Flame/torch runner dude was SO AWESOME. I loved the collective gasp in the audience haha. I liked how the American outfits were the same for the men and women (I mean, in colour scheme. Obviously the cutting would be different). Pretty much all the other countries had different colours for the two genders. OH agree with whoever said that thing about the country with like, the Hawaiian shirts. Ew. Chinese outfits were so blah for the women - that garish shade of yellow. Eurgh. Should have made them all wear red. Then it would have been a huuuuuge sea of red, and a little bit of yellow, like the flag. Joanne - haven't you seen those outfits at the Bay for the Canadians? They looked gross on TV, but they're actually not that bad. But they got criticised for having them made in China - lol. The Olympics are always so intense for me, and yet I'm like the least athletic person ever haha. Guys, since a lot of you love it so much - Diving tomorrow, Women's Synchronized 3m springboard final! 2:30pm Beijing time. You do the conversion. That was an amazingly long post. Patriotism kicks in, sorry. |
