And the World Cup has begun....
Last Thursday we could watch the opening ceremony for the World Cup...a great show, for sure...but, the real show is the matches! No-one is more addicted to soccer than us, Brazilians...yeah, we do have a very good reason for it... we are the only country with chances of becoming 6 times champion...and, we are definitely fanatics about it... Brazilian matches are a good reason for not working or studying...most stores, public buildings, schools, companies close during the games...and, if Brazil wins...there is a huge chance of not opening until the next morning! Even who is not such a big fan of soccer, becomes an expert during the World Cup...and that includes me, of course!!!!
By the way...first Brazilian match happens next Tuesday (at 3:30pm here - I guess it will be around 10:30 am in SLC and 2:30 pm.m in NH)...you are all invited to watch the game and support Brazil!! :)
Also, today is Valentine's day in Brazil (no Missy, I haven't made it official yet)... and although I don't have a steady boyfriend, me and my friends are still celebrating the date... C'mon...isn't that a good day for fondue?!?!
By the way...winter is about a month away and the temperatures have already fallen...it is sooo good to be a bit cold!!!!! 72 degrees (or 22 Celsius) feels really cold for us!!! I love it!!!!!!!!!!
