the Olympics

Well, recently I've been watching the Olympics. I haven't seen that much of it, but it seems that this is a good year for Canada. We have a total of 24 medals so far; nine gold, ten silver, and five bronze. Canada stands in third place overall, one place above the United States. All is well for Canada.

The big highlights were the men's and women's hockey games. First was the women's final against the US, which I only got to see a little of because I had to leave for a dentist appointment. My dentist told me that Canada scored in overtime. The men's semi-final I only got to see a little of too, but I watched the only goal in the game, Canada won the game 1-0. The final for men's hockey is Canada against Sweden and it will get a lot of commotion just like the other games.

Today I watched the bobsleigh event, and it seemed as though we weren't doing well. The Americans were winning but our second team beat their time, but this didn't mean victory. Britain easily beat the time of our second team and our third team went after. They got off at a great start, but they made a turn too early and had a devastating crash. We can't always win, but it was bad to lose that way.
