DAY 1: OMONALYMPICS FFA/STREAMING POST, SOCHI-STYLE~

[yuukihitohira.livejournal.com]

It's that lovely time again where we all get to cheer on our country's top athletes...as well as our favorite Korean athletes too! This FFA will serve as a place to gather and chat about the games with your fellow Omonazens and there will be a new post every day with updates about medal counts, crazy wins, or heart-crushing losses.

For a schedule of what's going on each day, you can check here at the sochi 2014 website and well as the bbc wesbite (that seems to be the only one I can find giving me times for events, lol)

You can check out Team Korea here to see who's ready to compete! (Go Women's Curling!)


The opening ceremony starts in just about an hour and streaming links will be added to the post as found!

stream 1 BBC 2
slight more HD BBC stream



So, Omona...



ARE YOU READY FOR THE OLYMPICS?!

So worried about you guys snatching speed skating and short track medals from the US this year lol

I just want JR Celski to get a gold so badly :( especially after everything that went down with Simon Cho, sob

shamelessly patriotic around the Olympics

[yuukihitohira.livejournal.com]

Same here omg.

I still dk how I feel about our women's figure skating team this year (and I want Yuna to take gold again so she can legit happily retire) but for everything else I'm like

[skonka.livejournal.com]

Who's that girl? She's like Bora without the bitch face.

[yuukihitohira.livejournal.com]

That's Kim Yuna~ aka South Korea's queen of figure skating :D

[moozles.livejournal.com]

I feel that as a Canadian it would be unfit for me to cheer for any women's curling team other than our own.

Miss Yuna is one of my favorite figure skaters though so I'm pulling for her there, alongside our cutie Patrick Chan.

Best of luck in hockey chums >:]

[yuukihitohira.livejournal.com]

Hockey.......

WE'LL GET YOU CANADIANS THIS TIME >:( YOU HEAR ME CROSBY????

We may be bronze during the summer

[torontok.livejournal.com]

But wintertime is all gold for Team Canada.

here to snatch all the medals from right in front of your noses,
while being more ~fashin than everyone else

[yuukihitohira.livejournal.com]

Curling is seriously my most favorite thing.

ALL THE CURLERS ARE SO AWESOME AND PLAYFUL, I can't wait

[hyde-my-dreams.livejournal.com]

Oh my gosh, thank you so much for posting that streaming link!!!! NBC is being shitty and not letting people who don't have TV cable providers to watch more than 30 mins free, and there are so many advertizements on the site that it's freezing my computer. >.<

I'm sad I'll have to miss most of the opening ceremony (gotta go to work half an hour after it starts), but I'm so happy to be able to see some of it live at least!

[yuukihitohira.livejournal.com]

Happy to help!!!

We'll be having a new post every day and hope to have as many online streams up that we can find (with as little ads as possible too OTL) ^^v

[hearttaek.livejournal.com]

Is nbc using their app again for the live streaming? I checked and there's nothing for sochi.

[yuukihitohira.livejournal.com]

They are using it for Sochi, but they're being dumb and not live streaming the opening ceremony :/ They're holding it for prime time instead.

[yuukihitohira.livejournal.com]

So SBS is covering this in Korea and they keep talking about Yuna, it's so cute.


BUT AHHHH IT'S STARTING! The stadium looks great.

[yuukihitohira.livejournal.com]

OH NO, THE LAST RING LOL

[onlybrandy.livejournal.com]

Here for the winter outfits and the jokes


GO CANADA & JAMAICA

[onlybrandy.livejournal.com]

Belgium athletes look like they are about to go skiing after the ceremony.

[yuukihitohira.livejournal.com]

I'm so confused by the ladies with the country names. Like the design of their costume and their headpieces....lol idk

[poppyonmars.livejournal.com]

[yuukihitohira.livejournal.com]

AWWW HUNGARY IS SO CUTE

[onlybrandy.livejournal.com]

All these island nations at the winter Olympics. is this a first?

[yuukihitohira.livejournal.com]

They're doing the nations in the order of the Russian alphabet this year? (Minus Greece always going first and then the host country last ofc) So that might have something to do with it!

[onlybrandy.livejournal.com]

Ireland dressed like Irish moss

[onlybrandy.livejournal.com]

Canada
yesss

[yuukihitohira.livejournal.com]

China's flag bearer is so adorable and excited. His smile is so cute ;;

[yuukihitohira.livejournal.com]

crossing my fingers that after Queen Yuna wins her second goal, SBS gives her (and us) the thing we've been waiting for



aka Kiss&Cry Season 2
