The purpose of me setting up this blog is to keep track on the progress of Beijing 2008. I am personally very fascinated by the architecture of the Beijing 2008 Games. Just a personal opinion, I think the buildings are way cool! They will rank among the best stadiums ever built in the world. Hopefully, this will become a historical archive of the event. That's if I don't get lazy ;)

Yeah! But then again we are talking about a country that has a foreign reserve close to US$1 trillion! :)
