addiction.

i forgot how much i enjoy watching the olympics. for real. this stuff is pretty amazing… the athletes blow my mind and i’m in awe of all the detail that goes into such a huge production. does anyone else feel like they’re watching a bunch of superheroes on tv? the level of intensity is just unreal. gosh, i break a sweat just watching.

some people grow up with dreams of competing in the olympics. very admirable. but i think i’ll settle for dreaming of attending an olympic event someday. maybe vancouver in 2010?

as much as i love the olympics, there are a few things that have bothered me:

why on EARTH do all of the female gymnasts wear scrunchies in their hair?!? i know you need your hair up and out of your face, but is a normal hair tie just not sufficient?
what happened to the group synchronized swimming competition? that was the hottest sport ever.
i have absolutely loved watching michael phelps. but i’m afraid he’s half an inch away from a wardrobe malfunction. besides, if his uniform is riding that low, his butt crack has got to be getting some fresh air.

i’m ginger and, chances are, i like you.

i’m from nashville. but i live in downtown dallas now. i’m a daughter. friend. sister. believer. dreamer. lover of all things beautiful.

i spend much of my time editing books, which is my job. (don’t let the absence of uppercase fool you.) when i’m not at work, you can usually find me on a patio with some friends enjoying some nice wine and good conversation.

i long to make a positive impact in the world. one person at a time. and i hope that it begins with you.

My name is Christopher Cambell and I am a Junior at Moody Bible Institute, studying Communication. I am doing something of a research project and was wondering if you would like to participate. The study is of Christian females who blog online. Your name will never be used, but your words may be quoted (as an anonymous surveyor of course) in a paper. If you are interested, please email me your responses to these questions at CHRISTOPHER.N.CAMBELL@MOODY.EDU

1) If someone were to ask you to describe yourself, how would you describe yourself?

2) Is this affected by your affiliation with Christianity? If so, how?

3) What is the purpose of your blogging online?

4) Do you believe the purpose is consistently accomplished?

I hope to hear from you soon.

Thank you and have a nice day,
Christopher Cambell

Ging,

I know exactly how you feel about the Olympics! Hannah and I have been watching ALL of it. (Granted most of it has been recorded, but we’re not missing anything!) We also decided that we are going to the London Games 2012. Hehe. You should go with us!!!

Best. Post. Ever.

I’ve wondered about the scrunchies for years…since they went out of style in the 80’s.

Did they not have Synchronized Swimming? *I was without a TV and internet for the entire length of the Olympics. Crazy, right?*

Think they’d take away some of those gold medals if Phelps has a wardrobe malfunction? Janet’s just now getting back on her feet. Didn’t that happen in like 1947?
