I. LOVE. THE. OLYMPICS.
You can ask anyone who knows me, and they will tell you that I am pretty much glued to the TV for the entire two weeks that they are around every four years. I will watch any event that is on. For example, today I watched synchronized swimming and rythmic gymnastics just because. I love to watch the sports and then become an instant expert in that field and comment on everything I see.
That being said, I am sad that the closing ceremonies are this Sunday. Whatever will I do with my free time now?!
Here are some of my (and I'm sure most of America's) favorite highlights from the games:
Gabby Douglas and Aly Raisman winning individual golds for gymnastics (although I love the whole women's gymnastic team as well!)!
Missy Franklin for swimming. I can't believe she doesn't do endorsements or anything just to stay on her high school swim team! They are very lucky!
Misty May-Treanor and Kerri Walsh Jennings for women's beach volleyball. Threpeat what!? Such an awesome end to their great team partnership!
I have to admit, I'm not a huge fan of track, but did anyone see the runner from South Africa who had two amputated legs? How awesome was it to see him compete in the Olympics?!
