M is for Michael Phelps!
the word 'swimming' only excites me once every 4 years. and of cos, the swimmers. HEH:D their build are really stunning (both males and females, i dont only ogle at male species k). i guess the only normal sight is when they are lined up in their lanes by the pool. cant imagine any of them trying to fit into an empty seat slot in our mrt. too bad for their shoulders.
anyway, michael is my new heartthrob. haha! (yet another one hur~) he is really amazing. not only is he emerging out of world's bests, his current gold medals are accompanied by straight breakings of world records, which were already his. duper fast and powerful.
on a side note, athletes keep breaking records (note, their obssessions with timing, length, mass, points... etc) and that makes me wonder about human's limits. what can ever be deemed as the best-est, and never will be succeeded? never i guess. records are meant to be broken. (eh, is it supposed to be "promises are meant to be broken"? haha. anyway, <- that is complete bullshit!)
back to such competitive races, i'm glad hundredth of a second is still enough, for now. it is quite a scary thought for humans to compete even to thousandth of a second, like a siao! cheers to US's victory by the few hundredths second, earning michael phelps' second gold medal. that particular relay was real excitingshit, i bet michael was hysteric being on the verge of losing his golden-8 dream. thankfully, Jason Lezak, the old man, saved the day.
many are predicting the number of golds he will be getting. of cos, i hope an 8! time to beat the record of 7 golds at one Olympics! someone cuter should take over that title. haha.
for asia, korea's Park Tae-Hwan is surprisingly good... and cute. haha. in anyway, no one should chap in and mess with michael's golds!
but i do wonder if such passion ever dies. i cant remember anything not becoming a chore once it becomes a duty to fulfill.
p.s. i am a B, who cant swim. haha!
