"WATSON!"

Sorry i didn't write yesterday. i know my resolution was to write once a day. I just dont' feel comfortable writing when my mom could walk by at any time. since i have to use the downstairs family computer...
anyways yesterday i went to see Sherlock Holmes with my little brother. It was really good. The only thing is i kept thinking about how Sherlock Holmes is an older guy, I mean he really shouldn't be as awesome as Robert Downey Jr. and i never pictured Watson as awesome as Jude Law. but it's cool, it was still really good, lots of intense action. :)
I also watched some snowboarding competitions, no worries Shaun White is going to the Olympics again! haha and Gretchen Bleiler.
the thing is about watching all these "getting ready for the Olympics and who will be on the Olympics team" is i wish i could do all those sports. i want to speed skate, snowboard, figure skate and maybe luge.. haha :)
so intense.
anyways i have an eye doctors appointment today.
it's time to finally get new glasses. i can actually say i'm SUPER excited. it's been over three years since i've gotten new ones, and just in time for me to go back to school. although they pry won't be ready before i go back to school. but i'm still excited :D
so quote of the day.

Sunday:
"No Jesus, No Peace. Know Jesus, Know Peace"- I'm pretty sure i saw that as a bumper sticker one time.

Today:
you get two because i love you guys :)
"The past is history,
The future is a mystery,
Today is a gift,
That's why we call it the present"
-no idea where i heard this one either.

oh yeah and did you guys hear about NickJ getting mugged on stage...oh right he wasn't mugged just attacked by billions of teenies jumping on stage.
poor kid.
and to think i could have been there to witness it in person. if only i wasnt severely broke...
haha
oh well i think i would have been embarrassed to be there anyway. i mean all those stupid people jumping on stage. sigh.
well i have to go do the dishes that i used for lunch.
and find out where my dog seems to have run off to. he can't have gone far since he isn't feeling that well..
later peeps
much love.

yes, i am going to write about the olympics again.

Okay so last night i was watching the Women's Gymnastics balance beam to see who won.
and this time no one was jipped! yay
Shawn Johnson got her gold which she deserved :)
and Nastia got another silver
:)
so Shawn won one gold and three silvers
and Nastia won at least one gold and two silvers. i think she won another one maybe a bronze?
idk
anyways it was amazing and Shawn Johnson has the cutest smile in the world.
like i awed when she won. hah.
so amazing. i am so happy for them
:)
and then in Men's gymnastics (which i don't really enjoy as much as women's)
Jonathan Horton got a silver on the unever bar (i think that's what it's called) hah
but he did really well. if he would stuck his landing and not taken a step he might have had a chance for gold. but it's okay he was like soooooooo happy with the silver it was cool.
:)
but that's all the gymnastics now. they are all done :(
oh well now i might watch some track. liek they are ridiculously fast.
like freaking Jeremy Warner won his semifinals like sooooooooo far in front of everyone it looked like. i was like wow. he's fast. hah.
okay that's it i'm done for now.

I'm not about to be another victim..

Okay so last night i saw more of the gymnastics Olympics!!
and seriously USA keeps getting ripped off by the judges.
like China has seriously won once while i've watched by like accident
and Romania too.
let me explain so like Shawn Johnson so should have won on floor the other night, but since she had to go first the judges just didn't give her like the score she deserved although she did have the best score the whole entire time until the end. And the Romania girl was good but not as good as Shawn.

Then last night while i was watching Nastia Lutkin had tied with the China girl and by their weird way of doing tie breakers Nastia got the silver when she clearly did better then the China girl. no i'm not being an american biased person. if you watch all performances you can tell.
you can just tell.

well tonight is another gymnastics performance on the balance beam!! yay so hopefully i don't miss it! i would be so sad.
seriously love gymnastics. lol

In a crowded room, girl your the one i See

okay so last night i was watching the Olympics. Mostly cause i finally got to see part of the gymnastics. Like i haven't seen any gymnastics yet and i was sad cause thats my favorite part of summer Olympics.
So anyways i finally watched some and i so cringed every time someone messed up cause it made me feel bad for them.
but on a nice note two Americans won the floor exercise!
Shawn Johnson got silver
and
Nastia Lutkin (umm yeah idk how to spell her first or last name so hopefully that's right!) won bronze! I was sooooooooo excited for them! and i was so excited i actually watched it!
Like i love the Olympics although they seriously make me wish that i was that amazingly talented at something. like i should have stuck out gymnastics when i was younger maybe i could have been there. or maybe swimming?
like Michael Phelps with 8, yes EIGHT GOLD MEDALS!
like he's amazing. although sadly i did not witness any of those medals.
i feel like a bad American gosh. like would i have known when he was swimming i would have watched. I watched him four years ago and was in total awe.
like he's amazing
yeah so anyways that's my rant about how i wish i was an Olympic hopeful.
but now I'm done cause in truth i know i pry couldn't stand the pressure or the amount of work they put into it.
so GOOD JOB to all those Americans who got a MEDAL
YOU ROCK
YOU ROCK ON!
