The Mystery Itchiness Returns
11:13pm: Yes! I don't understand what's up with it...it's quite unpleasant and also a bit alarming. Because I have no idea what causes it? I don't think it's the clothes I'm wearing because I'm not always itchy whenever I wear a particular top. I thought maybe it could be something I ate, but I don't think that's how allergies work... Maybe it's stress or nerves? After all, Mum, her friend and I are off to Fiji on Monday, I hope not, because I get stressed a lot! :Oo
In other news, the Olympics has officially begun! Very exciting, although because it's in Europe the time zones are just awful. The gymnastics has literally just started and it's nearly 11:30pm. I'm not sure how long I'll be able to watch it. Although, at least streaming means you can watch sports that Aussie TV doesn't show, the gymnastics stream is struggling though :O( If it doesn't pick up I might go to the live channel because it's showing cycling and the blessed tones of Phil Liggett aka "the voice of cycling"
Wow whoever the captain of Team China is at the gymnastics he's got a seriously cool jacket. And they've just announced a Frenchman and the crowd almost took the roof off, fun!
The stream is still struggling a bit, so we shall see. I'm not sure if I should try an watch it live anyway because even thought we're not heading to the airport hotel until the afternoon tomorrow I need to return some books to the library, so I should stay up too late.
Speaking of struggling...I still can't get onto LJ, which is a bit of a worry especially since those "Is it down" websites seem to indicate it isn't down. But one is saying that users in Australia aren't able to get on so maybe it's a local thing? Gee, I hope our Government hasn't decided to block it because it's owned by a Russian company. :O(
Oh, I just found that the stream I was watching was specifically for the Rings but now I'm on the general one and it's working fine. A lad from China has just started off the whole thing... at least I think so, more than one apparatus is used at a time, so it's hard to keep up LOL.
Although I've just realised the Friday Five is also available on DW, soooo
The Friday Five
19/7/24
1) What's your favorite Olympics event? Ooo slightly tough, but if we're talking Summer Olympics, I guess I'll have to go with Gymnastics, so much to watch! How do they even learn this stuff?!
2) What do you think of when you think of Paris? The Eiffel Tower, what else :O)
3) What's something that's not an Olympic sport, but if it were you might be a contender? Ummm, is sitting on my butt an option? Because honestly I think that's the only one I could have any chance in XD
4) Which of the newer Olympic events are you interested in watching? (breakdancing, surfing, 3x3 basketball, skateboarding, men's artistic swimming?) I'm intrigued by men's artistic swimming! I didn't realise that was a thing, I'll keep an eye out for it!
5) What are your top 3 countries to cheer for?
Australia (obviously :OP)
Uzebekistan (the one with the "U")
Italy? (I'm not actually sure to be honest, LOL) I kinda cheer for all the rest equally, LOL.
There's actually a Friday 5 from yesterday, but it's 10 minutes to midnight, so I better wrap this up and find something to put on my itchiness.
Ta ta for now!
