I actually wanted to blog when I finished my exams but I cannot wait cause I have to say this year Beijing Olympics is really awesome! I have to say cause today they are showing the closing ceremony on Channel 5. Haha I am supposed to study for tomorrow OB exam.
Okay what so awesome about Beijing Olympics?
1. It starts on 08.08.08 which means a auspicious number for the Chinese and it happens in Beijing with so many Chinese.
2. Singapore got its Olympic Silver medal since 48 years ago! I would want to congratulate our Table Tennis Women again! Li Jia Wei, Feng Tian Wei and Wang Yue Gu! It is exactly 12 leap years, 12 Games ago! And it is actually the first medal since we gain independence in 1965.
3. Michael Phelps broke Mark Spitz record (1972-7 gold medals), he got 8 gold medals, breaking 7 records out of his 8 events. And he is just 23 years old!
4. Usain Bolt (left) who broke both 100m (9.62s) and 200m (19.30s) running record (last double broking record was in 80s), not just by a bit but quite a few seconds! He is now the fastest man on earth.
5. China dominate the medals tally this time. It is a Asian country after all. Asian rules! Hahaha.
6. Shawn Johnson is really a awesome girl in Gymnastic. She is only 16 years old but she is already achieving many golds!
7. Tao Li was the first Singaporean who got into finals for Swimming. She was the fifth fastest in the finals which I thought it was really good from a Asian country like us.
8. 17 Aug 2008: It is the day whereby Singapore got a silver medal and Beijing Olympic and Michael Phelps got his 8th gold in a team event.
Kudos to all those who had participated in the Beijing Olympic!
I have to say China, you did a A1 job in organising this Olympic games! It is totally awesome!
I cannot wait for the Olymics Games in London 2012, wonder where will I be at that time haha.
Oh yea not forgetting the Youth Olympic in 2010 which will be held in Singapore. Woots!
Alright got to go and study now or not tomorrow I will flunk my OB paper which I think I will, haha.
