Sochi 2014 and Life

Hey guys I just herd something about the 2014 winter olympic games in Sochi russia and and i thought hey, I haven't wrote a blog in a while so I thought I could share the news with you guys.

But before that I might as well do a life update thing because I know from twitter you guys think my life is interesting, I personally think you just need to get out more but here it is anyway. As you know if you've read my other blogs that I am a young culinary enthusiast and have hopes of going to college next year to learn more about it, when that time roles around I might have more interesting stuff to blog about. But since my last blog I have made the commitment and paid the $95 fee and applied to 3 collages and 5 different programs. 2 at Humber, 2 at Fanshawe and 1 at Conestoga. Although getting me really excited by sending me emails... none of them have given me an early acceptation. Guess I'll just have to wait.

Anyway on too Sochi. As most if not all of you know the winter Olympics this year are being held in Sochi, Russia. And the past month or two they have been extremely worried about terrorists and bombings that have threatened the games and would obliviously make Russia look like a bad host. Especially with the twin suicide bombings about a month ago.

 But what is also making Sochi and Russia look bad to some people is something I read on Facebook today (I will post the links below) Russia has captured 2 Orca whales from the wild and are flying them into Sochi for the games. Animal rights have been going cray with story and some Canadians are saying we should boycott the olympics all together

I personally think that is a bit too far to boycott the whole Olympics. But I'll let you read for yourself. Some of the links go into Russia's anti gay laws too.
