Just For Fun

Here are some of my favorite pictures from MSNBC's picture stories. Since the first couple days of the Olympics I haven't watched much of the games on TV. I've seen a few clips on youtube or MSNBC but not much. I really love the Olympics but there is just too much to watch, isn't there? Some of these sports really fascinate me. More than anything though... I love looking through the pictures. I would absolutely love to be a photographer for the Olympics or at the very least be talented enough to be a photographer worthy of the Olympics. I enjoy the stories behind several of these photos but I'm mainly posting them because I love how artistic and beautiful these pictures are.







Does anyone know I did the high jump my first year in high school at Highland HS? I wasn't any good but I enjoyed learning that sport and working out with a coach. I got to participate a little bit in the shotput, discus and long jump too. I was better at those sports but we didn't concentrate on those for some reason.

When I moved to Cottonwood HS I didn't know about volleyball try outs until it was half way done. I didn't make the team and it crushed me. I didn't try out for anything again. I really regret that. I regret that I let my pride stop me from trying something else. I really loved being in sports at Highland and have always missed it.

When I fail at things now, I try to remember how much I missed by giving up in high school. Remembering that helps me want to push harder and be better. I now know that you have to fail to succeed, so bring on the failure so I can succeed faster!





Diving is one of my favorite sports to watch.



Moms are awesome!



What an emotional moment. I loved watching this.











I love the colors and everything about this picture. I especially love that the photographer was able to get above the group.



I am totally impressed with the athlete's muscles. Wow.





This is an awesome picture. I love the green, red and white.



I want to know what she is thinking.









I really love this sport too. In a way it's kind of silly to have a jumping contest but I LOVE it!







Again, I wish I could be the photographer. Being the amazing athlete would be great too :)
