Ashleigh McIvor!

So, Winter Olympics at Vancouver just happened to coincide with a busy busy schedule at university and considering that it was my last year of engineering - it wasn't pretty. I would skip classes to watch events and even if I was in class I'd be streaming absolutely anything I could get during class. Many a Environmental Engineering Design class was spent cheering on the Canadian hopefuls. Needless to say, any gold we got was amazing but one gold in particular caught my attention. The womans snowboard cross was one by a Canadian, a mighty fine Canadian at that. Ashleigh McIvor tops out my list of most attractive Vancouver 2010 Olympians followed closely by Eve Muirhead, the young curling skip throwing stones for Great Britian.

Okay, so as a half-joke half-oh-god-please, I added Ashelgih McIvor as a friend on the popular social networking site we've all came to hate and love, facebook. I waited with baited breath (Animal Crossing FTW) for her to add me but she day after day went by with no response. Eventually, a close friend who was also a huge fan added her and waited and waited. But his waiting wasn't for nothing, within a few weeks he had a confirmed friend request from the Canadian goddess. I was stunned and thrilled. We thumbed through the awe-inspiring pictures of her ripping it with snowmobiles, bow hunting for big game, and being just hot in general. It was jaw-dropping but I was always super jealous. Until today.

Today, Ashleigh McIvor of the Canadian Snowboard Cross Team, the winner of the gold medal in Vancouver 2010, finally added me as a friend on facebook! I shouldn't be as pumped as I am but I am. It also might be the Gold Extra I've been drinking...
