DAE HAN MIN GUK!!!!!

ok, i admit it. i always get caught up in Olympic fever. i can't help it. i trained for 7 years trying to make it to the Olympics for Taekwondo, so i understand the athletes' discipline, sacrifice, stress, pride and emotional investment. i still get teary-eyed at medal ceremonies.

that said, i also get very nationalistic whenever it comes to the Olympics. i can't help that either. i'm Korean. it's in our blood to be intense and to be proud. that's why i was so crazy happy when i watched Korea beat Japan in the men's baseball prelims last week and then again yesterday in the semi-finals. Korea, the only team still undefeated (8-0), advances to play Cuba (who they beat last week 7-4) for the gold tonight! Korea came in an underdog and have willed their way to the finals with an unbelieveable undefeated record.

you know what i'll be doing tonight. DAEHANMINGUK!!!!!
