Winter Olympics!

The opening ceremony started last night and i couldnt believe that america had 216 athletes!
Im watching the olympics as i'm typing :3.

Are you guys watching the olympics?

Oh, one guy died right before the opening ceremony D8 from a crash while practicing.
Rest in peace~

seems like a fascinating event except for the guy who died

I've never been all that interested in the Olympics. :3
But I totally love Shaun White.
<3<3<3<3<3


I would sometimes watch the luge, but I'm boycotting it this year because what happened to Nodar Kumaritashvili. It was totally preventable.

The luge accident saddened a lot of people and that guy was that country's only athlete. Happened one day before the opening ceremonies. What bad luck.

How sad. /:
Rest in peace.


But ohmannn~
Shaun White, he's awesome.
So is Apollo. <3
I don't remember his last name, but he's the speed skater thing/inline skater.
He is awesome. <3

A guy died last year?! I think I heard that but I don't remember... I was watching men's figure skating and I watched the snow boarding (Shaun White FTW) I saw some Russian dude ice skate and he was like, perfect but really arrogant. He's the one that left that Olympics after he won for three years and then came back to "crush his enemys"

@ Steph: I MISSED THE FREE SKATING. IT MADE ME SO UPSET. D: And the one Russian (Evgeni) was really good, I thought (Youtube, ftw.) But I heard the American was pretty good as well. That's why he won gold, the American I mean.

AND OMG. THE SHORT TRACK LAST NIGHT. I was basically standing on my couch--the Koreans, man. GEEZ. APOLO GET YOUR HEAD IN THE GAME. It's okay though Apolo, I forgive you.

I feel like this is getting intense. Much of the usual programming gets replaced with the Olympics and there's televisions even in McDonald's to cover it. Nice way to reel in the customers, eh?

I thought Apolo did a good job... Even though he got 3rd to Korea... But it sort of looked like he was pushed? I don't know, I haven't watched very much of the Winter Olympics in the past years--besides figure skating 'cause thats my favorite


And a couple from American skated to a "Phantom of the Opera" montage! It was so awesome!!! I wish they could've won gold
