Opening Ceremonies...

              Was I the only one very confused by certain parts of the Opening Ceremonies last night? I  mean, they were awesome and everything but I sat there with my family going, "What in the world is going on here?!" I really liked the choreography for the lords walking around looking at the smoke stacks rising up during the industrial revolution part. There was one lord that was incredibly bendy! When they leaned back to look up at one of the stacks he was practically doing a back bend! I guess that's what happens when you get stuck in the back of the pack.

               And then they brought out Lord Voldemort. Beijing had awesomely choreographed drummers and stuff. London had Voldemort fighting Mary Poppins. Not to say that a 100 foot tall Voldemort isn't impressive but for the opening ceremonies? And the creepy baby at the end of the dreams part?! I liked that the NBC commentators even said something about that being creepy. I want one of those light up blankets they had on the beds. Who needs a bedside lamp, I have a light up blanket!
 
             Overall, we had fun watching the opening ceremonies last night. Greatly enjoyed Hey Jude, though I thought Paul McCartney should've done a royalty only verse. Just saying. So far today I've watched table tennis, soccer/football (why do we call it soccer when everyone else in the world calls it football?), archery, badmiton, a little basketball, and two types of volleyball so I think today has been a fairly successful viewing day so far. Have I ever mentioned how much I love the Olympics? Adios! Remotes should never be more than three feet away from you.

I'm sorry, I had to. (:
