Nice banner in the OP!

Ah okay. She's going to be a singer now? Hmm. Well, I wish her the best.

I can't wait for the opening ceremony.

I love watching all of the countries walk around the track with their flags.

WOW Carly is singing. Interesting.

Me too. That's exciting!!

I saw a commerical yesterday during the trials of some guy that was running and he got hurt. So his dad went to the track and helped him finish. I seriously almost starting crying.

I'd love you forever if you could get any of the Kobe ones

***Stacy*** · 06-30-2008, 10:03 PM

Sure. I'll grab them in a second.

Also, I started an Olympic comm on LJ. Just wanted a place to talk about it without killing my friendslist. I've already posted some news, quotes and polls.

Great team this year I'm Italian but for sure I'll support this team!!

I can't wait for it to start. I've been watching the US trials (I don't think they have been showing any Canadian ones)

I can't wait for swimming, diving, gymnastics, track, all of it.

I would have loved to stay in China to see the Olympic Games but now living in Beijing must be really expensive.

Obviously, I'll be rooting for France and also for China because I really love this country and I loved living there!

Aw you lived in China? Cool deal.

Thanks for the link to the lj community! The header is gorgeous.

Motoko Ayoama · 07-01-2008, 11:49 AM

Yeah I lived in China during 3 months. I went to see HongKong, Xiamen, Beijing and Guangzhou. It was fantastic

BTW , congrats to Phelps for beating a world record

***Stacy*** · 07-01-2008, 04:31 PM

Love the icon!! Michael looks amazing.

Found this pic of Michael. Amazing!

**keep no score** · 07-01-2008, 05:01 PM

Oh that sounds so much fun.

Awesome pic, Stacy.

I was reading an article about Michael and it said that his wingspan is actually longer than his actual height - which is unusual. It gives him a bit more advantage against his opponents.

Swimming trials tonight 8 EST / 7 CST on the USA Network.

***Stacy*** · 07-02-2008, 07:35 AM

WOW! That's pretty cool.

Missed the trials last night but I know they do come on Friday night too.

**blonde bombshell** · 07-03-2008, 11:08 PM

yeah his wingspan is like 6'7" and his height is 6'4".

I've been addicted to the swimming trials. addicted.

And I joined the community, Stacy!

Thanks for starting.
