My Olympic Diary: Welcome to 2010
déc 21st
I have been very fortunate for the experiences I have had. Who knew when I started my Journey to Vancouver 2010 – Diary Of A Fan blog it would lead to such incredible things like being considered for a CTV Olympic promo spot, be interviewed for a Washington Post article, invited by Inside Vancouver to blog about my journey, asked to contribute to a Visual Art project, and be invited to ride along with the GM guys in the Torch Relay. It has been an unbelievable time for me. Never in a million years would I ever have expected any of this to happen.
Along the way the support of family, friends and co-workers has been amazing. They are also one of the reasons why this has been so much fun for me. They are genuinely interested in my blogs and thrilled when all of these exciting opportunities are presented to me. It makes me so sad that they won’t be in Vancouver with me to see all of this come to fruition. I know they will be keeping up on our daily adventures though my blogs and photos.
Adding to the experience are the people who I have met along the way. Fellow bloggers, Olympic fans that are as excited about Vancouver 2010 as I am, and various people from Twitter and Facebook. It is like we are our own special group, looking forward to this in a way that some others don’t understand. I started my personal blog because I had so much excitement and enthusiasm about Vancouver 2010, I needed a place to put it. I also thought it would be a good way to meet others like me, if there were any out there. I have met more people than I ever thought I would and I love to see that others are as big Olympic fans as I am.
May 2010 bring wonderful things to all of you. It is going to be a great year for Canada. Thank you so much for reading.
My Olympic Diary: Does Canada Have Olympic Fever?
déc 14th
Toronto has Olympic Spirit, how about you?Here is an idea I came up with. I want people to send in pictures of any kind of display of Olympic or Canadian spirit in their community. Whether it is a display, a sign or decorations, let’s see how Olympic spirit is being shown all across Canada. Now, it’s not enough to put on a pair of red mittens, as cute as they are, and send in a photo. It should be something a bit out of the ordinary, like a huge display in a grocery store! Or somewhere else you wouldn’t expect to see such a display of Canadian pride.
You can email your photos to my notashopaholic at gmail.com address. I will compile them for a future blog post. I’ll give you until end of January to submit photos because I know it may take some time to find these great displays of Canadian Olympic pride. Ideally, I would like to see at least one from each of our provinces and territories. Maybe we could somehow arrange for people to vote for their favourite photo with the winner able to claim bragging rights.
Send this to everyone you know, tweet it on Twitter and blog about it. I can’t wait to see which city has the best showing of Olympic Fever!
Go Canada Go!
You can find my email address in my profile on my blog: Journey to Vancouver 2010 – Diary of a Fan. When sending a photo, be sure to include your name, city where the photo was taken and a brief summary of the image you are submitting. I’ll need that to include in the blog post. Thanks in advance for your efforts. Have fun!
