Well, it is that time of year again, or should I say four years. No sporting event gets me more hyped up than the Olympic games. Whether it is the high speed sport of alpine skiing or the more relaxed sport of curling, for some reason just the thought of it makes me very excited. I can remember the 2006 Olympics vividly. I would wake up every morning and watch the Today Show to get all of the information on the past winter events. And nothing is to say that I will won’t be doing the exact same thing over the next month.
I can name many different reasons why the winter Olympics capture my attention much more than any other large sporting event. But the main reason behind this strange mystery is that it is winter. Winter is the best season for sports, weather, atmosphere ect. Also for some strange reason the feeling that school falls around the same time as apposed to the summer Olympics or World Cup. I just feel like it is a good feeling to rush home after school and watch the games.
Their is NO doubt that I will be following every waking moment of these upcoming games. I have all of my winter gear planted out, I am ready to go snowboarding and even to watch the games. I can feel that the next month will be full of fun filled competitive spirit up in the north. Have fun up their Vancouver and happy four years of waiting!
