OFF-TOPIC: CANADIAN OLYMPIANS MEDAL!

[jenni_blog]

Allow me to blow my own horn here a little bit! Our Canadian athletes have been doing really well the past few days, after initially being out of the medals in the first week. So let me do a little picspam of three of our most picturesque athletes. And I'd like to pimp my comm olympic_love for anyone who might be interested in checking out the other posts. XD

Alexandre Despatie (Diver-Silver Medallist)









Twink pic! Not sure how old he was here.



This is Alex now.





Adam Van Koeverden (Kayaking - hasn't won yet but is first in qualifying round - he'll win tomorrow-XD)















And a girl! Priscilla Lopes-Schliep, and she's from my town of Whitby!!! She won bronze in the 100m hurdles!

Ever is so cute, isn't he? He's just like a little kid. I told someone else he was probably the type of little boy who never gave his mom a minute's trouble because he could amuse himself! LOL.

Alex is one of our stars!!! And so hot!

OMG, are you kidding? Yes, I am from Whitby! Well, not originally, but I live here now! What school do you go to in Oshawa? I go to night school at Durham College (I'm studying Spanish) and I work during the day in Pickering.

What a coincidence!

As if! I go to Trent U, at the Oshawa campus (and I live in rez), which is shared with Durham and UOIT. I take spanish too :o) Small world! I do all my groceries in Whitby, lol. That's so crazy!

That is crazy! My son is starting a graphics course at Durham this September so he'll be there too! And I'm just going to start Spanish III in late September!

Where do you do your grocery shopping? We go to the Superstore at Brock&Taunton. We were just there this morning!

That's so cool!
I go to Brock & Taunton too, for some reason I prefer that one to the Superstore that's actually *in* Oshawa. Oh well.
Is your son excited to start school?

[just-jenni.livejournal.com]

I can't believe you shop at the same store!!! That's amazing!

Yes, he's pretty excited, I guess, although he's not really the excitable type...he's very laid-back. But he picked up his new laptop that's included in the course and that made him happy! LOL.
