Oh Canada.

Tonight I was sitting at home, in my humble little room, watching the swimming championships in Melbourne. Now normally I am not one for sports, but for some reason I just felt like watching.

I happened to turn it on mid way through the men's 200 m medal ceremony, and I was glad I did.

I notice the odd time since I have been away from my birth place in Canada, I take where I come from for granted, I don't always realize how lovely my own country is.

But for one reason or another tonight when I watched the medal ceremony and discovered the gold was being awarded to a Canadian, I felt very proud as I watched them raise the flag and sing the anthem.

Tonight as I sat in my computer chair I was reminded of the beauty that is Canada! LOL but at the same time I thought OMG i am sitting here in Australia watching Canada get awarded...how cooooooool! Aaah I'm a nut! :)
