Paris Olympics
So I’ll be watching plenty of this during the next two weeks. Which is funny because I’m not much a sports person but something about the Olympics is kind of entertaining. I remember during the last summer games in Tokyo I was really into skate boarding. But what I thought was especially funny about it, is you know so many of the people competing were often hassled by cops, only to be skating for their country.
But anyways, I was watching the opening ceremonies and there was a boat parade on the River Seine, which I thought was pretty creative. There was also some musical performances but the one that I really enjoyed was with Gojira. I’ve known about them for at least a few years, heard some songs and kind of liked. But this was over all amazing. And I’m really glad they didn’t tone anything down, because that was a bloody, yet also important part of their history.
Now, time to watch the games. I’m also looking forward to the games when they come to LA in the next 4 years, and I want this to be out done. I would love to cover some of that myself. Should start talking to some newspapers about that, like LA Times. I mean, I do have work published so I am legit. Ok, school newspaper, and it’s been so long but still valid.
