yes, we have the fastest man on earth in the 100m sprint and he revealed himself in the olympics finals. woohoo! although i missed the live broadcast, i managed to see the repeats twice. it was just as exhilarating. i think i can see usain bolt run that race hundreds of times and yet not get bored of the footage. keep my fingers crossed that there is no drug involved here yeah.

the way he ran to the finish line, one would think that he was a super sapien. it was done so effortlessly without breaking a sweat. he was slower than the others off the starting block, but later he was unstoppable. his strides were so long. i just love how his long legs strode and the way his arms swung. i am sure the time could be shaved off more if he had continued that proper swinging and striding in the last few meters. saving it for next time? his height is an advantage too. 1.95cm? wow! just look at how his knees go higher than the rest of the sprinters in the field. amazing!

and tonight, all malaysians will keep their fingers crossed for the first gold medal in badminton and in the olympics too. can lee chong wei do it? i am sure everyone is supporting him...including yours truly. will be watching it in the antaenium at bukit antarabangsa. was supposed to go for dinner in klcc with tai yee, en and wei. but because of this match, we changed the plan to have dinner in front of the tele instead. so lee chong wei, you better not disappoint us!
