I suppose today is supposed to be one of those "scariest days of my life" kind of thing but so far it really isn't. I think it's more scary for my family. Today I'm having my wedding ceremony, and supposed to say my vows to Cam. I will probably be nervous as shnell actually doing it but right now the only thing that's bothering me is that my ring is off. I haven't taken it off since we had our Chinese ceremony (back in February) so I feel a little naked right now. My aunt said that this is pretty big for the family because it's a first for them, even though it's really a second for me and no where near as scary as not knowing what's going to happen for 2 days straight when you're supposed to do nothing but smile.
In the meantime we just got to watch the Opening of the Olympics on Cam's computer. He can only get a few channels on his computer but one is the Hunan TV station so we got to watch CCTV1 on that. Cam said that all of the other TV stations have taken a vacation for the Olympics as Chinese people have nothing more important than the Olympics to be watching right now. It's kind of like the earthquake, during that time when I was in China it didn't matter what channel you turned to it was all about the Earthquake. Gets a little boring watching TV but it's ok. Olympics is a pretty big deal. I wasn't up early enough to watch the very beginning but my parents said it was really awesome. If you get a chance record it tonight, I'm sure it will be well worth the footage. All I can say is I'm damned glad I'm not in Beijing. I bet it is absolutely insane there now.
