    I really haven't gotten the chance to relax and soak up the games yet. Today I got just a glimpse. Hopefully I'll be able to settle down and watch it.

    You guys are doing great. I think you're currently number one with several gold medals. You have a player in almost every sport/game.

    Same here, I know nothing about the Commonwealth Games. But then again, most girls aren't into sports anyway. I will also have to google it to know what it is.

    Let me ease it off for you.
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commonwealth_Games
    In short,athletes from the common wealth of the nations participate.There are 53 of those and you can find them here.
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commonwealth_of_Nations

    I guess youare wrong about the second part.Most girls take interests towards watching and playing sports..:D

    So Sidney, are you really not digging any sports? Most girls where I am from may not be involved in a sport but they have some liking for one or two. So they will watch it on TV or go out to see it with their partner, friends or family. Should I believe that you don't root for any sports team in any game in your country?

    Well, let me correct that, I'm only speaking for myself and my close friends then, lol. We don't like any sports and we don't play any.

    Yes I really have zero interest in any sports, I only end up watching basketball when my dad watches it to check out if there are cute players, hehe. But interest in the game itself? Zero. That goes for any game, haha. I don't even like playing any sport. I'm such a couch potato. :D How about you, what is your favorite sport?

    I didn't watch the games. I wanted to watch but it wasn't broadcasted on my local channels and I'm too lazy to search for them online. Besides, there are far more important things happening these days than Glasgow.

    I guess you love watching cartoons then. My interest is in football and netball which I played in school. Now I watch them whenever I can. I also watch boxing whenever there is local tournaments.

    To be honest I had no idea what the common wealth games were or if they existed, lol. Not until now! :p I'll definitely read more about them, I thought it was all about the Olympic games :p
