Only two weeks countdown to Beijing Olympic Games, I still cannot believe it ! Definetely excited and really looking forward to the great event. Talking about Olympic, I should thank my dad , my first teacher on Olympic, my father is a big fan of sports, his fav games is table tennis , female volleyball and male basketball. Until now he is full of joy and laugh on talking about his young age of watching chinese female volleyball games. All my begining sports knowledge came from him.
The first memoriable Olympic games is 1992 Bacelona, but not so deep, the only image I can remember now is some table tennis games. So the year took Olympic to my realities is 1996 Atlatrta, that is a hot summer , not so badly like these years, I went to the city of Jixi (the hometown of Chinese president Hujintao), paying a visiting to my grandma's and my mom's. The opening ceremony is great, and Fumingxia of diving and Liuguoliang of table tennis are the most unforgettable players in 1996. Not only for they both won two gold medal , but they show their remarkable performance ,and olympic spirit.

In 2000, Sydney, I was studing at high school that time. Since the games was taken on september , and I just began my new semester , so I missed some games , however, some great moment still alive in my mind, table tennis player Konglinghui emotionaly kissed the flag on his T-shirt , Xiongni triumphed at his last but stunning jump, and the most improtantly, the historical 28 gold medal. I felt still like happened just a few days ago.Very excited.

I paused to take a moment to refresh the unforgettable Moscow night in 2001.7.13, Bejing derderved the win, both internally and externally. We did the best perparation , most support from the people and the governement. That's a exciting night. very proud of my country and the government. Btw, I 'd like to take this opportinate to thank Yanglan , the Oprah of China(TIMES), I was stunned when she made a great statement to the IOC members , all by English, she speaked absoutely wonderful English, and still now. From that time on, I made a detemination to learn english well, and I guess I'm on my way , so thank you Yanglan.
2004, more record ,more beautiful scene, and of course, more gold medal. Chief of them , the great comeback of female volleyball final, the historical gold medal of Liuxiang , and the picture of Yaoming embracement with the coach Harris.

2008, the beijing olympic games , ultimately coming , it's a most wonderful present for our great country and the great nations, especially in this year, when China suffered so many disaster . I believe confidently that the legacy which the 2008 Beijing Olympic left, will inspire the great nation and the great people, and of course ,myself, to make a better place for our later generations!
