Default Olympics!!!

So the opening ceremony is on Friday and I am pumped I love the Olympics. What events are you looking forward to watching?

For me I can’t wait to watch Water polo (since I played my entire life) even though most of the games will be shown late night if Serbia and Croatia play watch it will be a blood bath…literally!!! Swimming to see if Phelps can take 8 golds… Side note: I raced him once when I was 17 he was 15 we were swimming 200m freestyle he did butterfly (you can swim any stroke you want in a freestyle event) and crushed me. Also I am looking forward to football.

That was one amazing opening ceremony.

The lighting of the torch at the end was awesome.

I was never too into the summer games, but they keep adding new events. I kind of want to see the BMX racing, though.
