Beijing Olympics

I used to watch the events happening in Olympics. I may not see all of those but if I got the chance I really try to catch it on replays. Aloha and I are interested watching gymnastics competition. She was a gymnast before until high school but she didn't pursue that sport in college. My older sister ate Jackie also participated in this kind of activity.

The 5 rings of the logo in Olympics represent the 5 continents of the world namely; Africa, Asia,Australia,Europe and America. The last olympics happened in Syndey Australia in 2003. The next one will be in Beijing, China. It's opening will be on August 8 at Beijing National Stadium, China. The country is probably busy until now preparing their place for the upcoming big event as well as the visitors coming from different parts of the world to witness. Of course they have to prepare the best of China for the tourists and delegates of Beijing Olympics.

Last April 30, China celebrated the 100 more days to go countdown before that day comes. There are already set venues and schedules of activities where different sports and competition will be held.

We live in ONE WORLD. Thus, we have ONE DREAM. That is to achieve peace among nations despite of the fact of having the differences in culture . Olympics which caters different sports is a way to reach nearby countries. To experience camaraderie, playing as a team for world fun and celebration that we live in harmony.
