the journey has come to an end.

i just finished up my last day of volunteering at the ever so exciting pre olympics in san jose. i had one of thee greatest experiences of my life. I've learned that the little-est things make the biggest difference from calling people by their first names to having a positive and friendly attitude no matter how famous or rich you are..and to just always make the best of everything. When i tell some people that i volunteer and work with the olympics they ask who i meet. and wen i name people that ARENT in the nba, they say its a lame job and how its not worth it cuz i dont pay..little do they know how exciting it is to meet the people you see on tv. im so excited to just see all the olympians and know their sport and their clothing size. haha really, its more then just hearing their names and being a fan of them..meeting them makes you gain more respect for them as a person.

Within the last two days i worked, i met the tennis players venus and serena williams who were NOT friendly or exciting to meet. i also met James Blake who is also a famous tennis player who was not so friendly and exciting to meet. i, along with my co workers felt as if they were too snobby.



i also met track and field players like sanya richards who was very nice and cooool...


and also met jeremy wariner the great sprinter..who was veryyy nice.


a very kind and excited wrestler to go to the olympics, daniel cormier.
