olympics are finally here

i remember watching olympics four years ago at a family friend's house.i went to california for camp that summer (CAA: Center for Academic Achievements) by myself. so as i was staying at their house, we watched it every night. i remember one night we went to san francisco for dinner with the friend's relatives. we were unable to watch the olympics that night because the relatives wanted to watch a video of themselves doing tai chi.it was kind of -- haha.

can't wait to watch michael phelps swim this year. he goes to u of michigan! i remember him saying that he likes to listen to rock music right before a match because it soothes him. he was only 19 back then. haha.almost the same age as i am. that's a little insane.

"time after time"-cyndi lauper is such a good song. i wish i could write such an awesome song to be remembered and listened to "time after time." haha yeah. i think modern music (esp. the songs made after the 90s) have really gone backwards. nsync, britney spears, backstreet boys, and bbmak were a whole lot better than the pop music we have out there right now. i think rock and alternative rock has always been okay. there's always someone and something new coming out that isn't all too bad. i really enjoy the girl songwriters that have been coming out these past few years. i'm all for people who write and sing their own songs like john mayer, jack johnson, and sara bareilles. they are truly talented music artists.
