Beijing Olympics is Over

Great 16 days!
I wish i could be in the stadium to watch the Olympic athletes to compete and pursue their dreams in Beijing.
I love two songs from the Beijing Olympics.
The theme song You and Me,
and Beijing Welcomes You!
I love the melody and rhythms of the song and find the lyrics of both songs are very simple and very meaningful. Many many great celebrity singers sang in the beijing welcomes you song.

beiijing hua ying ni
xiang yi yue gang dong ni
rang wo men dou jia you to chao yue zi ji

beijing huan ying ni
you meng xiang shui dou liao bu qi
you yong qi jiu hui you qi ji
*(Chinese Pinyin)

Somehow I find the closing ceremony not as great as the opening... though it was fantastic... perhaps I watched the one without narration online... seems it was so quiet and did not know what was going on. Maybe the narration was too boring to catch my attention.

Now looking forward to 2012. I've talked to some friends about going to visit London in 2012 and enjoy the Olympics again there!

I was born in the Olympic year... I fell in love with the Olympics almost at the first sight... I remember very clearly that I have watched all the games in 1988 (if i could still remember), 1992, 1996, 2000, 2004 and now 2008. 2008 is also a very special year to me...

you and me
from one world
we are family

travel dream
a thousand miles
meeting in beijing

come together
put your hands in mine
you and me
from one world
we are family
