Sports Things

[themadpoker]

Hi guys! The Superbowl is today! =DDD I know these things only by virtue of my flist and my brother (apparently the sports game he was watching today was actually a SPECIAL sports game? Who knew!)

ANYWAYS. I don't actually care about the Superbowl. It's about people throwing a ball shaped like Arnold's head, whatever (Hey Arnold!)

You know what I DO care about? The Winter Olympics! It starts in FIVE DAYS GUYS, FIVE DAYS. It's going to be awesome. And Canadian. Also awesome.

Also! HYPOTHETICALLY I could see it in person this year. I have no courses on Thursday and Friday and then it's Reading Week so I don't have to worry about school. Also it's in Vancouver so it is in HYPOTHETICAL driving distance (several days driving, you understand. But still! Technically I would not necessarily need a plane).

Sadly it can only ever be hypothetical because $425 is alot of money for only one figure skating event. But it's still nice to know it is a HYPOTHETICAL possibility.

Capslock is fun. =DDD

I don't give a damn about the Superbowl, either. And I'm actually American!
BUT OMG OLYMPICS! If you can manage it, you should totally go! I came thisclose to going to UBC and if I hadn't freaked out about the size of the Uni at the last minute, I'd definitely be seeing some Olympic action this year. I'm not too far away to drive (It'd take about 5 hours) but I have no money, alas!

That's the problem with (lack of) money, always ruining all these awesome possible plans. :/ Yeah, I really can't afford it but it's nice to imagine. I'll just be glued to my screen when my favourite events come on (figure skating! Also figure skating. And...figure skating? 8D)

Figure skating is maybe the best thing, ever?

The only competition for the title I can think of is gymnastics. And they're not part of the Winter Olympics so figure skating still reigns supreme. \o/
