Australian Olympic shooter sleeps through alarm

FFS, this is just fuckin bullshit man..... It looks like the beds in the Olympic athlete's village are very comfortable:

The hype and excitement of making her Olympic Games debut were not enough to wake Alethea Sedgman as the teenage shooter almost slept through her event.

Sedgman didn't hear her 5am alarm on the first day of competition in London which threw her preparation for the 10m air rifle event into disarray.

But after waking up just 10 minutes before the bus departed, the 18-year-old missed a spot in the gold-medal final by 10points at the Royal Artillery Barracks.

Sedgman didn't go to the opening ceremony on Friday, but she stayed up to watch the Australian team march.

She set her alarm and hit the snooze button for ''five more minutes'' when she fell back asleep. The next thing she remembers is roommate Lauryn Mark waking her up an hour and 10 minutes later.

The room allocation for the Australian shooting team was one of the most controversial points leading into the Games with husband and wife Russell and Lauryn Mark being forced to sleep in separate rooms.

But Sedgman was relieved their wish wasn't granted as Lauryn saved her from an embarrassing late arrival to the first event of the Games.

I can't believe that the reporter almost uses her being a teenager as an excuse. Fuck man there she is with all that preparation involved. After being given $10,000 by the Australian Olympic Committee (as all the athletes are) and she stays up to watch fuckin telly the night before her big event. Then she can't even get out of bed to go to it. 

How about next time darling you just stay home if you aren't going to be serious about it. Give your money instead to a disability charity. It will be used much more wisely, and do much more good than paying for you to fuckin sleep.

Fuuuuck  this shit pisses me right off.

Um, BTW, shooter Mark is up on August 2nd, in squad 1. Fuck I hope he fails.
