Go Mao!!


Today is the day everyone has been waiting for. The beginning of the Women's Figure Skating! First the short program, and then on Friday the finale! You can bet that all people in Japan and Korea will have their eyes glued to the tubes for this one! Mao, the Japanese star, has been a media-phenom in Japan since she was 15 years old. And Kim, the Korean star, is a huge star in Korea and the favorite to win the Gold. Who do you predict will win? I predict _____ to win. (Please fill in the blank with your prediction.) Predictions aside, I am rooting for Mao. Who are you rooting for? If Mao wins, it will be a historic event in Japan. Almost the same as when Japan beat Korea in the World Baseball Classic. I am psyched for it!

This article should get you ready for the festivities:

In December I saw the car below every night when I walked home. It was nice. I hope next year Midosuji is lit up again
