I leave in two days to go to the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics!
I am a huge Olympic fan and I still can’t really believe that I get to be a part of this Olympics in my home country.
My uncle played in two summer Olympics for Canada and I have always wished I was old enough to see him play (I was two years and four years old at the time he played).
I became a Kinesiologist because I had a dream of being on the Olympic training team, assisting and treating Olympic athletes. (Ok, so I went the other way on the career path and help people go back to work).
I have my Canadian Hockey Jersey all ready for the two hockey games we’ll be going to.
I have two giant Canadian flags, many little Canadian pins to trade, two Canadian toques, and a suitcase full of red and white clothes!
I will be tweeting from the Olympics, so follow APaperBuffet on Twitter to get updates from the Games!
If you’re Canadian, you know the theme of these games are “I Believe”.
I believe.
I believe in Canada.
I believe in Canada’s athletes.
And most of all, I believe dreams really can come true.
Ciao for now!
