HELLO

So.... I know I haven't been on here in awhile but whatever. This is for when I feel like writing anyway. So... I turn 17 in a few days... ok more like 2 days but whatever, it's not like I've been counting them....

I've decided that since I haven't worked on my Life After blog in awhile, I'm going to turn it into a place for me to put my digital art on there. Yes, I have been working on my digital art recently. It has gotten so much better too! So, I hope you enjoy it! Or maybe I should put it on here.... I think I will... but first I have to put my name on them....

Liars, Cheaters, and America.

Ok, I take back Spain having bad sportsmanship. WE have bad sportsmanship.

For all of you who don't know, we lost to China in gymnastics. K? So, RIGHT AFTER we lost, Martha Karolyi, the team co-ordinator, says that it wasn't our fault that we lost. She said that they called Alicia Sacramone to do the balance beam, and didn't put her name on the board. She had to wait to do her routine because everyone went to commercials at that time. Which is expected when you go to a national competition like that. They said that she was prepared to do the job, and the wait THREW HER OFF. Ok, I'm sorry, but waiting shouldn't throw you off like that.

If making fun of Chinese is bad, then saying that it's their fault that you lost is worse. Espically RIGHT AFTER the winners were named. They could have said something about it earlier, but no they didn't.

Am I being too harsh? If you want to get the full story look on here: http://sports.yahoo.com/olympics/news?slug=afp-oly2008gymnasticswomenteamusa&prov=afp&type=lgns

It's the article that I got this from, but I think I've pretty sumed it up here. But Am I being to harsh?

Spain's Racisim

The Spanish basketball team posed for a picture before the games started. They appeared to be slanting their eyes, imitating the Chinese. They say that they were just poking fun with them, but that doesn't matter. The fact is that this is poor sportsmanship, and just plain rude. I mean, they are hosting the Olympic Games for Christ's sake! I wouldn't be surprised if some mad Chinese dude kills them for doing that. This is a reflection of how stupid, insensitive, and how indecent people can be.

So readers, do you think they were just joking around, or being racist?
