The Olympics

I can't believe how people can train themselves enough to qualify in the Olympics. I mean, it would take so much time, money, energy, and extreme patience. Even as I sit here, I witness the greatness that can be brought from entering the Olympics. But sadly, there is always a downside to everything, and in this competition when you fail, you don't just fail, you crash into a pitiful pit of misery and woe as the world watches you all the way. They still try, though, and many are successful. If you were to enter the Olympics, which sport would you enter? I myself would go into the curling sport, since I myself am scared to death Heights and high speeds. The worst mistake I've seen in the Olympics was when the Ukrainian figure skaters messed up. The guy was supposed to hold the girl for a while but he lost his balance and dropped her right on her head. She instantly lost consciousness and everyone was shocked, but this year they are currently in second place. What a recovery! I don't know how anyone could get up in front of several billion people and perform to there very best without having a complete breakdown. This worldwide competition could also bring alot of harmony between countries, so many people coming together for the games. And these are just the Winter Olympics, who knows what the Summer Olympics may bring.....
