[fame, fortune and happiness]
the 117 ioc session is a fun and enriching experience said ephraim loy in his closing speech... okay... i am kidding...



apart from famous including the guy luc besson who directed the french video which they used for the paris presentation...



i also saw the powerful and rich including new york senator hillary clinton...



and the mayor of new york michael bloomberg...



then i also managed to snag david beckham's autograph while he made his way out of the raffles ballroom where the announcement of the results was held...



and it was really fun seeing the happiness and disappointment on some faces after the announcement of the results...

my heart was thumping as the results were announced... and so, see you at london 2012!

you really have to be there to get the feeling - you hear tonnes of people cheering at the raffles city atrium...

then above at the rccc, delegates swarm in and out and whiz by you while they prepare for the final lap...

happiness....
