3 more silver -- men's triathlon, trampoline & 3m diving -- and we're up to 12!! \o/ ETA: make that 13! a bronze in women's 100m hurdles, yay! I think the goal was 16 medals and we may just reach it with kayak & canoe still to come.

I fell asleep last night during the bike portion of the triathlon but was able to catch the repeat this morning ( Read more... )

That race was a heart attack waiting to happen. And when you get the chance, watch the men's diving final. It was SO PRETTY AND GLORIOUS :)

Earl is touch-n-go for me. Sometimes I like him a lot, other times, not so much.

Sad to see Mookie go (although he looked pretty happy and haha he smashed his guitar), I am glad to see Drew stay. I like Drew :)

Did you see the slo-mo diving? HOTNESS. Will try and get some pictures up tonight.

When did trampoline become an Olympic sport???? Pretty soon texting will be one!

5 weeks and 3 days!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey, trampoline is cool! And we always seem to do well in it so bonus for us lol!! Actually, it's been an Olympic sport since Sydney, I believe.

*squeeeeeeee* for EyeCon! I've already planned that I won't be checking in any luggage so I can get to the hotel ASAP!

I was running on the spot with whitfield. And I figured out that I've met his sister. (weird)

Mitch should have gone home a long time ago. He doesn't have a lasting voice and is very whiney or nasaly. I was disappointed last week when the MookEarLeyTh[eo] was shortened to MookEarTh

Hee! I'm pretty sure anyone who was watching was running with him too.

I agree that Mitch has a very "unique" tone which annoys me sometimes but I thought he did really well last week and yesterday. But with the competition left, I do think Mitch should be the one to go next.

Duuude. Where the hell're you finding streaming video? (Just came back from LA + relatives who had satellite.. so I am now lost in terms of the Olympics in Canada).

\o\ 13!!
