and so it seems on the tele-commercials. i wonder how come they forgot about the $200 million budget overrun and the time wasted in traffic jams due to road closures.

at least my job as a french announcer is finally over today (unless i get activated again as a last minute replacement for the other announcers at the other venues). i was really getting quite sick of announcing "mesdames et messieurs, les jeux olympiques de la jeunesse singapour 2010 vous souhaitent la bienvenue a la xx-ieme journée de la compétition en triathlon. ce matin vous pourrez assister au triathlon sprint individuel/relais mixte a 4 qui commencera a 9h".

now to spend the remaining 1 week of the games watching some matches, and also to visit the yov and mmc since my pass allows me to enter all the yog venues. yaay.
