The Olympics is now over, and it was properly celebrated by a very impressive closing ceremony. Although there's so much I could complain about England, they really have done well for themselves over these past 2 weeks. It fills me with joy knowing how many people put time, effort and dedication into the Olympics. There were over 70,000 people who applied to help out, which by my poor calculations is around 1/1000 of the United Kingdoms population. Everything was so well done, and will honestly be something I will always want to remember. Because the Olympics has been held at my own country, I feel much more of a part of it whereas if it was somewhere else I wouldn't be able to go see a sport live or understand the opening and closing ceremony properly. Whenever GB people would perform, the crowd really went wild as for the majority of us, it's our team. It was so spectacular I want to cry.
We cannot though forget the Paralympics which is coming up in two weeks! We all know that it doesn't get enough recognition, but hopefully because of this a lot more people in our country will want to support those with disabilities this year and every following year. I will be seeing Paralympic Athletics next month, I'm very excited! I'm so in love with my country right now <3
