Oprah! You and your head!

This was the BEST OPRAH EVER!

I was planning to liveblog it, but I couldn’t take my eyes off for a second because I didn’t know who I would have missed. And surpringly, instead of Michael, I think it was Mamma Phelps who got the most air time.

So, Oprah must have said Chicago like 40 times before the athletes finallycame out, and guess who was first??? Ryan Lochte! Followed by Phelps. He looked SO DAMN CUTE I COULD HAVE DIED. That curly hair just gets me. It really does. Then the male swimmers were directly behind Oprah in interviews, buttt Ryan Lochte was DIRECTLY behind Oprah, and whenever she was on I was hoping she would permanently move her head. Just think… if he was one seat over I could have seen him for a good part of the show, but I did see him a good bit. And then during some credit card thing, I think they showed Debbie Phelps like… touching his head or something. I’m pretty sure it was him. At the time I was just looking up from my Vogue. It was cute, though. And Garrett Weber-Gale was a DOLL.

Then we saw Natalie Coughlin, too! She looks so sweet, I want to be best friends with her.  And Jason LEZAK! I love him, too. I wish he was my uncle. Pretty much I want to be related somehow to all Olympic swimmers, you know… except the bald kid who licks his goggles and that French slut. Oh and Dara Torres talked too She is so inspiring, but my mother like to ruin it by saying “Do you know how rich she is? Have you seen her house? She probably has a nanny, and a chef, and everyone to take care of everything for her so she can swim all day.” Thanks, ma. Watching it a second time, Ryan loked pretty damn confused when she was speaking.

Then there was Nastia and Shawn, and Kerri and Misty (Kerri is so tall!), and the basketball players, and the ADORABLE gymnasts. I actually just consider Jonathan and Justin adorable, but I like the other ones too. Just not as much. ADORABLEEEE. And OMG who saw that awkward cart wheel by a random track runner? That was so embarrassing.

And to top it all off my favorite American Idol ever DAVID COOK was there! Then all of the athletes got to go into the crowd where it looked as if Lochte was chewing gum. There was one more shot of Rye Rye and then the highlight of my month came to a close.

 

Oh Ryan, even if you chew gum on Oprah and are not the most eloquent speaker, I just want to let you know that I will miss you. So, so much. And that I will be watching your videos on youtube for the next four years, or until I find a new husband. But I know that one day we will serendipitously be in the same place… like Halloween Horror Nights or Daytona Beach, and I will say “hey! you’re Ryan Lochte!” after everone else forgets your name and YOU WILL fall madly in love with me. I’ll just turn 18, get myself a nose job and we will live happily ever after. It’s happening. Maybe not the nose job, but IT’S HAPPENING.

Don’t leave me!

 

 

P.S. I have decided that I want to be Rihanna ever since last nights VMAs. Or maybe Gwen Stefani. Or Pink. But mostly Rihanna.

get ready to die.

I originally posted this last night, but everything got all screwed up so let’s try this again.

Jonathan Horton is perhaps the most adorable gymnast who ever lived. Followed by the also adorable Zou Kai. And now he is doing this gymnastics SUPERSTARS tour, which I have a small desire to go to. Why don’t they have a swimming SUPERSTARS(!) tour? Now that I would pay big money for.

 

omg, ANGELS!

Jonathan Horton, I want to keep you in my pocket and take you everywhere.

His wrist and hand (and arm) look very akwardly large.

omg, I could just die. Paul Hamm ruins it though.

You are just too adorable.

He kills me. He just kills me.

And I couldn’t post this without some Zou Kai…

He is so tiny and cute!

And Michael Phelps article here

Beijing says goodbye.

Sad!

I absolutely loved this Olympics. And I decided to run through my favorite moments in no particular order-

1. Phelps touching the wall 1/100 of a second faster for his gold! I loved watching Mamma Phelps at the end of this one. She was too cute!!!

2. May and Walsh dominating the sand.

3. When Sasha Artemev captured the bronze on the pommel horse after two horrible routines. The American men winning a medal was a great under dog story with the Hamm twins gone. I was so happy for them. And how could you not love Jonathan Horton??

4. When Ryan Lochte won his individual gold. His dad was so happy!

5. Two words: Redeem team.

6. Shawn Johnson getting her gold, and seeing her parents reactions.

7. Nastia and Shawn going one, two.

8. Dara Torres winning a silver. And so close to that gold!

9. When Shelly Ann Fraser won her gold at the Bird’s Nest(I don’t know what event it was, but her smile was contagious)

10. When the American men owned the 4×200m freestyle relay. Phelps, Lochte, Vanderkaay, and Berens destroyed not only the comeptition, but the world record, as well, getting it under seven minutes.

But by far the most exciting moment ever…

11. “Go Jason, go Jason, go Jason, go Jason…” haha, again, I love Michael’s mom. It’s when Jason Lezak went into like… beast mode and BEAT THE FRENCH IN THE MOST AMAZING THING I HAVE EVER SEEN IN MY LIFE! Plus, those French were talking trash about the Americans. YES! That race was amazing. And then Michael Phelps turned into the Hulk when he realized they won.

 Oh, and I guess I forgot about Phelps winning his 8th gold, but that was pretty much a given that it was a highlight. That was fun to watch. There were so many other moments I loved…and pretty much when anyone cried that they won, it broke my heart and I was really happy. And I going to miss saying Watercube and Bird’s Nest!

I wanted to add more diversity here, buttt I really liked the swimming.

 

Adding  more about closing ceremonies laterrrr! School tomorrow so I’m going to go relax.
