No I'm not writing about how great and magnificient the opening ceremony was. It would have been all that if there wasn't fake singing and fireworks.
Remember the little girl in the red dress singing a song? Well turns out that the little girl in red was just there for show. The little girl who really sang the song was not shown because she was not "pretty" enough. Does that tell you about China's thoughts on outer image. Not even a slighty chubby little girl with crooked teeth can sing a song on a stage.
And remember the 29 footprints that led to the Birds Nest? Yea, I thought that was pretty cool until...I found out that the footprints that viewers saw on TV were digitally done. They really had the 29 footprints but broadcasted something fake. That's right, fake!
I thought China had changed into a better country. Ever since the Olympics, they have tried immensely to reduce pollution, stop people from spitting, and built so many new buildings. But not even an honest opening ceremony, that's pretty low.
