Two weeks, no school.  SWEET!

My life has been extremely hectic the past two weeks.  Filled with handshakes.  I learned through this sudden meeting of many people that the only way I am going to master it is through practice.

Onto the olympics…

What did everyone think of the opening ceremonies?

My favorite part: Gretzky carrying the torch to Waterfront at the end with everyone running along side him. What spirit.

I was downtown this afternoon till around 7 just taking it in.  When I was in the crowds, whether I be looking at the sights or the people or the protesters, I felt so excited.

Even though the air felt like something was going on, when I watched the woman in the red dress sing O Canada through the window of a little Mexican restaurant on a wet Friday night in Yaletown, it felt so unreal that the huge event I was looking at was actually just down the street.

Didn’t want to be there when everyone left BC Place so I went home to watch the rest.

I’ve organized a list of the free concerts I want to see (well I want to see them all but these ones just stood out more to me):
