Olympic Love

So, I was really negative lately. I didn't like any of my posts, so I deleted them... most of them. I kept the cool and jazzy pop-culture stuff as well as my first amazing post. Onward and upward!

So the Olympics started a week or so ago! I love the Olympics! I've been obsessed with the winter my whole life and the summer since 2000. I'm not the type of person to only support their country, so I cheer for whomever I want. More on that later. The Opening Ceremonies were so awesome. I'm an Anglophile and a Francophile... so I was in heaven. (*Note: I am in love with most of Western Europe.) The whole ceremony was amazing. I need to download it and watch it again. Honestly I want to see the countries walk in again. I love assessing their uniforms. The Brits won that; gold and white... classy!

I'm not athletic at all, but I do love sports. I fell in love with tennis about 12 years ago and I have been a diehard fan for about 3 or 4 years. I have my favorite male, female and doubles players and I was so excited to see them compete. On the guys side I love Novak Djokovic, Andy Murray, Rafa Nadal and various other players. Roger Federer is my enemy. He is cocky. Anyways... Nadal was hurt and couldn't play and Novak lost in the Bronze medal match. The winner was Murray who won in his own country, which is amazing! I shall post on tennis another time, maybe during the US Open.

So, like I said I don't always just cheer for the USA, I love too many places just to focus on America. 1) I fucking love Canada. I can sing that national anthem with out even looking at the words. I blame my Dad for having me watch so much hockey; which I love. 2) BRITS! I adore the Brits. No one is perfect... I mean the US is incredibly fucked up. I cheered so hard for Murray. I was honestly short of breath. He has been waiting to win something and prove everyone wrong and he finally did by winning a Gold in singles and a Silver in Mixed Dubs. Oh I also fell madly in love with the British Volleyball Team. They didn't win a single set, but they had so much heart and are a young team. I can't wait to see them play more. 3) Just because you are from the US doesn't mean you are the best, hardest working or most deserving. I prefer to cheer for a good person than a complete dick.

Other than Tennis and Volleyball, I love Gymnastics and Swimming. I took both classes for a quick minute as a kid before I turned into a pain in the ass and quit. I wish I wouldn't have quit swimming. I'm really good at it and love it so much.

That is all for now about the Olympics. I'll add more later.

BLOG ALERT!

I didn't like where this thing was going. It was too negative and whiny. I don't like complaining or being a downer and honestly I think I was having some off weeks. I feel like myself now. However I do back up the statements I deleted about chicks and babies on FB. Chill out ladies. I know you are proud of your babies but I do not need to see them from every god damn angle. Post pictures of your dogs instead. I love animals!

Done for now. I need to figure out what I want this to be. Maybe it'll just be whatever it is... shape itself.
