the olympics are amazing. just so amazing. the amazing people. the amazing things they do. yes yes.

but let's take a moment to think about the volunteers. they are doing this for free. they are giving up hours of their time away from their work and family to help out at the olympics. and they don't have a chance to win a gold medal.

i want to be the person who holds the sign and leads like the gymnastic teams around, or the different heats in track and field. or the people who go onto the track with the athletes and stand behind their bins so the athletes can put all their warm up stuff in there and then take away the bins.

i just saw a gif of Usain Bolt, who is the fastest man in the world and just full of personality and confidence on the camera, like he's amazing. so in the gif he gives a fist bump to the guy who is in charge of his bin. and the guy's reaction is just priceless. he is smiling, no grinning, and laughing and shaking his head like he can't believe Bolt just did that and how it is just amazing really. i'm going to go watch the little gif again because i like it so much. Bolt just made that guys whole olympic experience - he could have just made his life. i mean wouldn't you want to fist bump the fastest guy in the world? that would be amazing. i will admit that i am slightly jealous of that volunteer - not really, i do think it would be awesome to get a fist bump from Bolt, but i wouldn't want to take that away from that volunteer because he is awesome too and i am so happy for him.

but now i'm watching a live Dave Days chat thingy, and he is so cute and awkward. and he's singing for us and playing his guitar, and it's so good! the people in the chat are pretty annoying. but he's so good, i'll just try to annoy the scrolling sidebar. i would love to have a live chat someday where people actually came and watched and there was an annoying sidebar that i would have to try to read. taylor swift is having a live chat on monday. cause she is awesome and she will probably crash the site because so many people will be watching her.

do you realize how much power people like her have? if she said "jump" a lot of people would jump and the other half would say "how high." i've never liked that saying, because if someone told me to jump, i would just jump, i wouldn't think to ask.

now Dave is singing Girlfriend by Avril Lavine, just the boyfriend version, get it? yeahh

i should be sleeping now. it's 11:30. too bad i'm not in California, then it would only be 8:30...i'm practicing for when i'm in college i guess. 

sitting here i just really can't wait until i'm at the point where people are aware of me and know me, even when they don't know me. like famous. so people care what i write and what i say. i want what i do to really matter. not just to the small group of people i know. eventually, right? hopefully.

but oh, i should respond to you abby! i did talk to Josh a bit and it was good. good good stuff. when i'm with him talking to him, i have no doubts or worries. it's just afterwards when he's not around. which isn't good at all. but they come and go. and i hadn't heard that so i had no idea you were crying so yeah, you're good, don't worry! but i think i'm due to fall in love with Josh again. it's just hard to when it's like pulling teeth to plan something with him. "what do you want to do" i either get, i don't know, or something with you, or i don't care. and it drives me crazy that i always have to plan stuff. but it's really my fault. i would like to be swept off my feet though. i'm sick of spending the day in his basement. i guess. i don't know. it's not bad. like i'm content and comfortable with Josh and happy. but i'm going to shut up now, because it's two weeks its all going to change and i'm going to wish i had those nights in the basement watching movies. it's possible that i could not see josh for months once i go to college. seriously possibility there.

now it's 11:45, but i have no intention of going to sleep because i am seriously enjoying this chat with Dave Days too much. i say chat with Dave Days. but i'm not chatting. it's like he is just talking to a computer and i happen to be listening. so it's not really a conversation. but his birthday is in two days. so happy birthday, Dave.

i was going to go to bed early because i woke up early today, 6:45, and i've been going all day, but i'm still awake! i can sleep in tomorrow but i probably won't end up sleeping in. i mean how can i hang up on the guy singing the theme song from Titanic? well not that i would really be hanging up on him...he would keep singing to just one less person and he wouldn't even notice.

can you believe it? i'm going to college in two weeks. for those of you who are not abby or myself, who have been reading this book style, can you believe it? do i talk, i mean write, like i'm going to college? do you see a change from the beginning of the...book...or from when i started this blog back when i was in...9th grade. whoa. 9th grade to college. that's my whole high school life, actually i think i missed a bit of the beginning of ninth grade, because i started in January of 2009. anyways. yeah. i don't feel old enough for college, i'm still young.

and now Dave Days finished his live chat at 12:04am so i can go to sleep now. woop.
