Summer Olympics

I love the Olympics - Winter and Summer.

But especially Winter. But, I may just be biased..........

Summer is great though, too. I lovelovelove gymnastics. and swim. and diving. love. it.

Whenever i think of Summer Olympics, I think of this clip. Don't watch the whole thing (unless you want to..) but skip to 4:15 - 4:22

i love this movie. if you haven't seen Stick It, do yourself a favor: slap yourself for not seeing it before and then go rent it. now. this movie is pure genius. 

but, really? that "olympiiiiiiiics" line gets me EVERY TIME. i laugh so hard, i cry.

so, every time i see a gymnastics event during the olympics, i can't help but exclaim OLYMPIIIIIIIICS.

have i mentioned how much i love the olympics?

it's nice because finals are just around the corner and the olympics have these magical powers to put a fire under my behind and make me super motivated. 

Sarah and i have been working super hard in the gym (not that we haven't before...but we are just that much more motivated to go!)

I am motivated to work super hard in my classes.

did i mention i'm skating again?

yup.

a lot. 

and by a lot i mean one or two times a week...at most. 

but, that's more than i was doing just last month! (which was zero times a week) 

my Olympic dream is still strong.

i forgot how strong it really was until i watched the opening ceremonies last week.

it was just hidden for a while under school, work, life, etc.

so, Sochi Winter Olympics 2014?

that would be fun....

USA! USA! USA!

May the odds be ever in our favor.

wait . . .
