I may or may not be writing this while watching the first rounds of curling, so I'm in the mood, you know. This tag, which I stole from Mary (ahem... thank you, Mary), takes all of my Olympic spirit and channels it into a blog post which I figure is a perfect way to channel it.
1. What team? WILDCATS. *cough* no, it's Team USA. All the way. Occasionally Team Canada. But it's Team USA.
2. If you could compete in any event, what would it be? Um... I don't do the whole sports thing, so... I mean if they ever make dance an official sport, maybe I could stand a chance. Or bowling. I might stand a chance at bowling.
3. Favorite event to watch? For winter, it's curling, figure skating, and some forms of skiing. For summer, it's gymnastics (including rhythmic gymnastics *heart eyes*), swimming, rowing, and honestly I like watching every event in both summer and winter because I just LOVE THE OLYMPICS SO MUCH.
4. Olympian you most admire? I admire a lot of athletes, tbh. Mary Lou Retton, Laurie Hernandez, Michael Phelps, there are a lot of them. Their determination, their strength, their triumphs and how they handled their losses, it's pretty great to watch them.
5. What sports do you currently play? Since I count dance as a sport, I dance. And I mean, I've competed in Irish dance so yeah, it's a sport. I have medals. It totally counts.
6. Summer or Winter Olympics? Both! I tend to lean more towards summer, simply because I'm more familiar with more of the sports, but I just love the Olympics in general and they're fantastic.
7. Ever been to see the Olympics in person? Only in my dreams *sigh*
8. A sport that should be in the Olympics? Dance. Or bowling. Because bowling might be cool.
9. What do you think would be going through your head right before you were about to compete in the Olympics? If how I've felt before Irish dance competitions is any indication, I would probably be thinking about how I feel I could be sick and I how I really need to not be sick, lol.
10. If you could choose the location for the Olympics, what would it be? Uh... genuinely, I have no idea. There are a lot of cities that I'm sure could do a great job. So I will leave this question up to the IOC and sit back to watch. :D
So... IS ANYONE ELSE AS EXCITED ABOUT THE OLYMPICS AS I AM??
If you are and you want to hear more of my Olympic excitement, check out this post I wrote way back at Rio!
So which sport is your favorite to watch? Play any sports currently?

A tag for the Olympics? That's so cool! I like the Winter Olympics the best, with figure skating as my favorite sport. I'm pretty excited about watching them, though I don't know how much I'll be able to because my family's in a bit of a Monk binge craze at the moment, which is totally cool with me!
ReplyDeleteThis was really fun to read! Also, dancing totally is a sport (even though I never participated in dance growing up. I think I'm the only girl who didn't. But I have a huge respect for those who did/do).
I know, right? I got so excited when I saw it! :D Ah yes I love figure skating too! (I'm actually watching it right now, so... lol) Oh my word, Monk! I love Monk! There are apps you can get to watch the events live, though, if you wanted. :D
DeleteThanks so much! It totally is. My muscles and the amount I have sweat in my dancing life should be proof enough, lol xD I'm so glad you liked the post! <3

We don't have the channel it comes on at our house, I use to hang out with my friend at hers and watch it but she moved, so I probably won't get to see it this year. :/
ReplyDeleteIt will be interesting hearing who wins though! ^_^
Aww that stinks D: You might be able to watch some online, though! But thanks for reading. :D <3
DeleteAHHHH EEEEHHH THIS IS THE COOLEST TAG OF EVER ACTUALLY :DD Too bad I missed it and now the Olympics are over otherwise I would have done it XDD My favorite summer events are gymnastics (*high five*), swimming, and the track and field, especially high jumps and long jumps. For the winter (and I actually do prefer the winter games) I love skating, snowboarding, and skiing! Canada did record-breaking well this year yay (I'm Canadian *coughcough*). XDD Awesome answers, awesome tag!!
ReplyDeleteHey, man, the Olympic spirit lives on forever. xD And technically, the Paralympics are on so that totally still counts yes you should do ittt. Yes to all of those events! Yeah, Team Canada did so good, I was so proud! (though I must admit that I was still really happy when we beat them xD)
DeleteThank you!!
