As you can tell from my earlier post on the Olympics, I'm a fan. No Ben, I didn't really provide any information to you, but by posting the questions that I did, I was hoping to generate some interest and have you all research to find out the answers. Needless to say, aside from Allie, no one really rose to the challenge. : ( And aside from Mr. Hastings kindly sharing the events of his snow day, I have no idea how you all spent yours. HINT: Read the blog and respond to it!!!!
The Olympics were GREAT! Team USA set a record for most medals won in an Olympics. Even if you're not a sports fan, how can you not be inspired and motivated by the dedication and perseverance of the athletes? So many stories and only two weeks to tell all of them. It's not too late to look up the answers to the questions I posted.
With that being said, I'm SO happy "The Biggest Loser" is back! Tonight's episode was classic B.L. drama, not to mention a great way to study THEME! So many of you write to me in your response journals about universal themes, like "Don't give up on your dreams," and "Push yourself," or "The underdog is a good bet." Well, you'll find all of that in this show. Just to get you caught up, a little game playing went on tonight and teams were chosen. One team was clearly the "favorite." Naturally, even though they worked hard, they assumed they would win the "weigh in." I'm sure you can predict that didn't happen; the underdog's came from behind to win the weigh in, sending one of their opponents home. Now I'm not saying that this always happens. But when it does, and it DOES happen, take a lesson. ATTITUDE and HEART is half the battle. If you think you're beaten you are, so somehow, be POSITIVE! Stay focused and have goals. Hard work does pay off. You may not always "win" or come in "first" in the game or contest, but enjoy the ride and focus on the experience. Okay....it's a little late, but please think about it......make me happy - comment away!
