Cough Cough... Is this thing on?

Boy, do I hope so!  I'm back from vacation.  (I'm sure you guessed that...).  And now I'm drawing a total blank about what I was going to write (I guess I'm still on vacation in my head...).  With that said, pardon any unexplained randomness in this post.

Ooo,  big news!  Canada has 13 medals!  Yay!  Ok, so you big (as in population) countries are probably not that excited about that, but Canada went the first quite a few days without any medals at all.  Then, one day we got a Silver (in Men's pairs rowing), a Gold (in Women's wrestling) and a Bronze (in Women's wrestling).  And now, we have 10 more.  Yay!!  

Oh, and speaking of Olympics, Usain Bolt.  If you did not see him do the 100 meter final, go see it.  Now.  Like this second.  He was amazing.  Just wow.  And, of course, then he did the 200 meter final and also got a world record.  He is an unbelievable runner.  Just wow.

I should probably say something about Michael Phelps.  Yes, what he did was amazing, I'm not denying that.  I just think that running 100 meters in 9.69 seconds is cooler.  Feel free to argue, but I'm not changing my opinion.  Ok, so before this turns into an Olympic blog, I should get back to other stuff...

461.  I have to read all that in my Google reader.  Ugh.  It's gonna take forever.

School.  It's almost (or already, for some) here.  I like summer, but it's kind of nice to have something normal like school again!

Ooo, and school means that I get to see all my friends that I haven't seen for awhile!  Yay!

Anyways, I'm back, and thats about all I have to say.  

For now, of course.

xoxo
Lauren
