World Aquatic championship
I met a couple of Chinese coaches in Diving Australia T-shirt. One of them asked me how to use a public phone in English and I answered back in Chinese. They seemed to be taken surprised and stopped talking to me. Later after googling at home, I realized that one of them is Tong Hui, one of former world champion...
I also saw the North Korean Syncho team. None of them speaks English and so they basically did everything together: eat, taking the elevator. Yes, I heard from my supervisor that some of them went in and out an elevator 3 times, still couldn't figure out how to use it!! For those who want to see cute Korean girls, an insider scoop: they will have their practice Saturday morning at Olympic stadium pool.
I also took a peek at the supper for athtletes. To be honest, I wasn't very impressed. The meal is very similar to the buffet from a bad chinese restaurant. mass production!!! For my supper, My boss gave me a choice of either eating athletes' food or accepting 10$. My choice was pretty clear. |
