This is the best year of my life. Last year was the best year of my life and next year will be the best year of my life. But this year is extra special because London is hosting the Olympic Games.
Did we think it was going to be so special? Probably not. In true British spirit, we all feared it was going to be awful, disorganised, busy, messy. In reality, I don't think I've ever seen London so eerily quiet and yet so buzzing. I'm having the best commutes to work as half of London's left the city for the Olympics and the other is watching the games. The way London feels these days reminds of the summers when I was a child when we used to have lots of friends and relatives visiting and it felt like a continuous celebration, family dinners and events. I feel like the whole world is on holidays.
I've been an active person for a long time now and I have a regular fitness regime, but even so, I now feel even more inspired. I feel inspired by sports I wasn't inspired before, I'm excited about learning the rules of games I wasn't familiar with, I feel like a child, happy and free.
There's more communication between people, everyone's tweeting and facebooking about their countries' latest medals, we congratulate each other for our countries' performances and we all suddenly feel just a little bit closer.
We didn't know it was going to be so special but it is. All the way!
I'm sure next year will be the best year of my life too, but 2012, well, it's something else!
