Oh oops. xD I think I posted that before I realized the American girls gymnasts had make up on too. Oh well. That Shawn Johnson girl is still cute. xD

Nastia is pretty good with that jump spin thing (I don't know what you call it.) She can land without moving her leg backwards and stuff. smile

Oh yeah. Michael Phelps got a phone call from George-o-Bush after winning his 8th gold medal. surprised I thought that was cool. Michael even got to meet Bush and took pictures. Lol.


And this is what Bush said in that phone call, lol. xD;;


and Nastia should've won gold for the uneven bars! scream
effin' tiebreaker.
He really refers his father as "41"? xD Wow.

Oh yeah. The high bar match was incredible. I loved watching the sophisticated moves in slo-mo.

So what did you guys think of the closing ceremony? It was pretty cool, in my opinion. I loved when Jimmy Paige played. He looks older than I thought he would... eek

Closing ceremony.

I didn't even watch all of it. I fell asleep part way xD
But the parts I did see, it was pretty cool. :>

The singing parts put me to sleep, but I liked the Closing Ceremony more than the Opening Ceremony. It was less formal and more fun :] All the athletes looked like they had a great time.

Speed walking?! gonk WHAT??????? Gymnastics is way better than speed walking!


The gymnastics gala coverage wasn't that great. They only showed about ten, fifteen minutes of it. Yang Wei pretended the pommel horse was a real horse and he did a series of flares that was really impressive. Jonathan and a male German gymnast each did high bar routines. And then, Shawn and Nastia got on the balance beam.

I agree. Those releases he did, one after another after another, were incredible.

My family and I are thinking of going. Ticket prices start at around $20.00. Shawn, Nastia, and all the American Olympics gymnasts will be there. I wonder if Alicia will come, too? I remember her mentioning that she will retire after the Beijing games.  
PostPosted: Mon Aug 25, 2008 9:10 pm
Ah, I saw Yang Wei pretend that the pommel horse was a real horse and missed the beginning of Jonathan's routine and I saw Nastia's balance beam, so I guess I didn't miss too much of the Gala, then...

$20? are you serious? eek

Alicia retiring already? But she's...so young.. I hope she won't. I liked how she kept her dignity even though she didn't medal. confused She should give it another try!

EDIT: Wow, I hope I can get tickets to see them at the Honda Center. whee I heard there was a little petition-like thing going around Facebook to get Alicia on the tour. surprised
