[tashi]

Yo~

Recently, the 16 day Olympic is on fire. Have you followed?

As time goes by, it seems events happening in Olympics is getting interesting and it occured to me some questions to discuss. Let me share with you:

Session I.

1. How is your opinion upon "謝淑薇" event?
2. How many Taiwan athletes you've known heading fighting in Olympic? Which one you admire most?
3. Do you think it's good for athletes to think "I am fighting for my country" ?
4. Do you think our country has the ability to help our athletes to find a way out?

Session II

1. Regarding athletes competitive enough to play in Olympic, do you think they belong to their own country or the whole world?
2. Have you heard the Chinses female athlete and her "洪荒之力"? How do you feel about that? check this short clip if you have no idea yet/

3. There is also a topic "Top 10 beauty athletes". Do you think it's proper or kind of unfair?

4. Have you heard "michael phelps"'s story? One of his fan beat him by 0.7 sec faster after the fan met him 8 years ago. Is it touching for you? How would you face it if you are Phelps
