    I used to dream about running the 400 meters in the Olympics. I say dream considering the times these amazing athletes run are almost 10 seconds faster than my best ever in the same event (52.9-I'm a short guy)

    I did get to meet Butch Reynolds back in 1996 before the Atlanta games, at the time he was the World Record holder in the 400, so that was really cool for me :)

    I would start a new version of the gymnastics on the beam and elevate it so that you would be like a tight rope walker. Then I would do flips and jumps on the bar at such a high elevation without a net. Everyone would oooh and aaah when I executed every move. For sure I would get a Gold Medal for it. (well, that's if I didn't fall that is) Then I would fling myself down on a rope and kiss my coach on the lips.

    Aren't you impressed?

    Synchronized swimmer. I can't swim for anything but as a kid I always thought they were beautiful. So graceful & almost romantic like. Loved it.

    I'm a Filipino, but I'd like to be an Australian swimmer, or in triathlon, or gymnast, but mostly I'd like to be a swimmer.

    I love Australia! =) Because my boyfriend is Australian! =)
