Abhinav Bindra:Beijing and Beyond: we are now welcomed....officially!!!!!!!

we are now welcomed....officially!!!!!!!

Thursday, August 7, 2008 – 7:10 PM

So yesterday was the welcoming ceremony where they officially raise the flag in front of your building and play the national anthem... it is really an emotional moment especially for us athletes who have early events and never attend the opening ceremony.
so for us in some way this was the small and intimate "cutting of the ribbon" and makes you feel proud that you are representing an entity so much larger than self.
Today is my day off and so i am going to spend some time soaking in the village and actually getting my mind to do something it has never done before.... NOT THINK ABOUT SHOOTING!!!
So instead of thinking about shooting perfect bulls eyes... today i am going to think of the pretty women in the village, the weather, the great city of beijing and whatever else pops into my mind will be allowed to stay as long it doesn't involve the words "rifle", "shooting" in it.... hey all it is a great time to be an athlete and this event is what we all live for.....

Whereas China is threatening US's supremacy in the overall gold count, India will be satisfied with this one... Its time to put more stress on Sports rather than Academics...since this is the area India is yet to make a mark...
