Diving and Tennis bitches. I wanna see some kickass dives and at least one person hit the board, but if they're in the olympics, I doubt they will.

Diving, swimming, gymnastics. But I'm looking most forward to diving. It's my favourite. My mom and I make a game out of making fun of the crappy non-Chinese divers who make huge splashes. AZNPRYDE YEAH.
Guo Jingjing is pretty (and a HELL of a diver), and so is her boyfriend Tian Liang. (ex? I can't remember).

I just saw this spread of Michael Phelps in People Magazine. Holy crap, is he ever ugly. And full of himself.
The Olympics start on August 8 (8th month, 8th day, 2008) and end on the 24th, since the number 8 is considered lucky.

Ugh, I had a plan to wake up at 5 in the morning to watch it live EXCEPT MY ALARM CLOCK DIDN'T WAKE ME UP!!!! So I woke up when I heard my sister asked my mom why she didn't wake us up at 7.
Dammit. I guess I'll have to wait for the rerun later today. = =''

wow, great job nbc for delaying coverage and then (at least for colorado people) having major blackout problems.
anyhoo, caught almost all of it-AH-MAZING! the guys with the drums were unbelievable. some of the countries had horrible outfits (i think it was hungary who had the women in those ridiculous flowered outfits), but some looked quite classy =)

You know Kobe Bryant had the loudest ovation. That's amazing. He got more cheers than the Chinese President, the Russian, and George Bush. The moment was so odd that even U.S. journalists were looking at each other in puzzlement.
Oh, and I was watching the Girls Gymnastic training earlier, and the girls were hot! I have white fever.
And oh, I'm watching badminton too since it's my favorite sport. And this Japanese chick literally broke this Iceland chick so she had to forfeit haha. Then I watched this Indonesian chick beat this German chick. It was a hella good match. Went down to the very last point.

yea agreed they look like a bunch of red cherry blossoms lol. the US' outfits were nice but too bland to stand out from the whole, i did like the barretts though.i think i like the swedish womans outfit, it was simple and modern.
