Fantastic 6!

(BEIJING, August 13) -- China made history today by winning its first Olympic gold medal in the Team event of Women's Gymnastics.

China won the gold medal with a total of 188.900 points.

The United States won the silver medal with a total of 186.525 points and

Romania won the bronze with a total of 181.525 points.

China's performance was exceptional! Absolutely breathtaking and stunning! A world class act =) First time in Olympic history, can you believe it?! No huge errors, just tiny slips and mistakes (maybe just one horrifying error from Cheng Fei on the beam - she fell) but overall, excellent! And at such a young age (youngest being 16), you really have to give them the credit for performing so well even under the intense pressure. More than half the crowd were Chinese. And yet, they did it so effortlessly that you'd probably think the acrobatic stunts are all a piece of cake.

I've been there, in ballet. That amount of pressure on your shoulders can really kill if you can't handle it. The greater the pressure, the more mistakes you tend to make, and more and more pressure comes on again. Talent. You must have it.

Anyways, I just finished watching the women's artistic gymnastics final and I absolutely loved it. I liked the guys too. And it went to China again! Another first time in history =)

I particularly favoured Shawn Johnson from the US (women's). She is just a wonderful talent to watch. The others looked a bit cocky, no offense but yeah. And Alicia Sacromone couldn't get a grip on herself after 2 errors, one on the beam and the other on the floor. A silver is good. Very good actually.

And it was a pretty close chase for the bronze medal. Russia and Romania. Russia made too many mistakes. Very significant ones. I like Stellania Nistor for Romania =) Another great talent =)

I love all the 6 from China. Very humble. Very talented. And whata great display of art! =)

Wo She Zhong Guo Ren!!!! =DDD
