N E X U S B E T A

I passed out during women's gymnastics all-around finals last night, which is one of the only sports I actually watch during the Olympics (along with swimming). 8(  Apparently, Nastia Liukin (U.S.) beat Shawn Johnson (also U.S.) by six tenths of a point!  It was a little surprising for me; Shawn started out with a higher potential score, but Nastia's previous scores throughout the competition were higher than Shawn's.  I was a little worried, because they neglected to mention anything about China beforehand, and China's gymnastics team beat the U.S. team; so, it would've have surprised me if one of China's participants snuck up out of nowhere and beat one of the U.S. girls, but the U.S. pulled through. 8]  Medals: Nastia Liukin (U.S.) Gold, Shawn Johnson (U.S.) Silver, Yilin Yang (China) Bronze.

Luckily, they're doing a recap tonight at eight. 8]

&& Michael Phelps is going for his seventh gold medal tonight, which is a tie for the most amount of gold medals won at any one Olympics.

EDIT: HE WON!  I don't know how he did it, but he did it!  Michael Phelps won first place by one one-hundredth of a second!  This is his seventh gold medal at the 2008 Summer Olypmics—a tie for the most amount of gold medals won at any one Olympics.  He still has one relay left, which gives him the potential to win an eighth gold medal, thus setting a new record!

Do you have a green thumb?

Haha, not so much. ><  I like plants, though!  I mean... I wish I had a green thumb. XD  Most of the plants at my house die within a few weeks and such... It's a bit depressing. ;.;

This question reminds me of Demetri Martin. >D

What game are you really good at?

That awful game known as "manipulation." ><  I'm super good at getting people to tell me what I want to know... it's a dark, dark gift, which I do try to use responsibly!  Or something...

When was the last time you had to speak in front of a group?  How did you feel?

Um... I think in health last school year. XD We had to do these drug presentation things... Yeah... o.O && I dunno. XO I was tired and wasn't paying attention. XP
