The Olympics.
I love the Olympics. I watch the entire Opening Ceremony yesterday. Yes, all 5 hours of it! China really did an amazing job with the sets, costumes, technology. I can’t imagine all the logistics that went into setting the whole thing up. Coordination must have been a nightmare! And for those of you who watched the parade of nations part, did you feel sorry for those cheerleaders?! They were standing and waving their arms for 2 hours straight! Craziness!
Oh and you gotta love NBC for streaming the matches now. I don’t have to sift through hours and hours of recorded videos just to watch some badminton..hehe. Besides my DVR doesn’t have much space left.
I spent this morning watching some Fencing, Rowing, Volleyball, and Cycling… all of which were surprisingly fun. I even thought of taking a fencing class (I love those uniforms!).
Btw, I have to say that I hate Yahoo! They seriously need spoiler alerts or a way to turn off all Olympic news because I don’t want to know if so and so won a gold medal before watching it on tv! Fucking idiots. They did this on the last Olympics… and they’re doing it again. Haven’t they learned anything!?
Today
Today, I cleaned the apartment because I haven’t cleaned it in a long time. It was just getting cluttered and just plain ol’ dirty. As you know from my previous post, Lauren stopped by today. We killed some time by going to South Coast. I saw this super awesome trench coat that comes with a super not-awesome price tag. The thing is, I never found a trench coat that fits me till now and I’m tempted to get it. >.< blah. As far as I know, it’s on hold for me till the 23rd. Hopefully that’ll give me enough time to think about it… or find a cheaper alternative.
Ok that’s it for now. I think I’m gonna watch some more olympics.
