Friday, 8-08-08. A day that will not only be significant in the Chinese community because of its symbolic numerical digits but also the beginning of the Beijing Summer Olympics. Despite all the recent controversy with China's political and environmental issues, it will be amazing to see all countries across the globe come together to join in on festivities.

Anyone who saw the Opening Ceremony can truly appreciate Zhang Yimou's artistry details. An estimated $100mil was spent to display the coordinated visuals. A man with a mind to create such a complex performance is a force to be reckon with. The Opening Ceremony was flawless and a great spectacle to see. Fortunately for Thorelie, we were invited to celebrate and view this magical event at Opening Ceremony LA.

Invites from the New York Store:

I am rooting for Team Vietnam. They brought 21 strong to their 13th Summer Olympics. It's their largest team yet and I'm hoping they bring home at least one medal.
