No one had to cajole me into watching the opening ceremony for the olympics when they were held in Beijing, but the Vancouver one... eh, that took a bit of convincing to make it to the end. The baroque performance put on by the Chinese was so incredible that I couldn't look away. After watching I just didn't feel satiated. It's not that the performers weren't talented, it was just well, kind of boring. I don't want to sound supercilious - I don't believe that I could have created anything better. However, I was not crazy about the circ du soliel act they seemed to be putting on. What's more, some of their affects appeared maladroit; they left one person without a torch to light!
Ok, now that I've finished acting like a malcontent individual, I think it would have been difficult for anyone to follow up the act done in Beijing. The performers all did their best just as I'm sure the musicians, technicians, choreographers, and composers did. I'm babbling. I don't even know what I'm talking about. It's too late for me to focus on a vocab blog!!!!
