I haven’t forgotten about you!

Sorry I promise I haven’t forgotten about you, I just haven’t had a minute to post. Here is something that can hopefully tide you over for a little bit (even though it will throw off my timeline later).

Monday:?

I wore this great patterned turtleneck tee from Express that has a cutout in the front. It’s really funky and not my style, but I thought I would buy it and actually enjoy it. My jeans are from Delia’s?and my flats are Charlotte Russe. The flats are actually very comfortable considering Charlotte Russe heels are not! I wore my black pearl necklace and my matching bracelet that my dad bought me from a trip. I think it looked pretty good!

Tuesday:?

I had a really cool hippie outfit on but I didn’t take any pictures because I won tickets to the Chicago Fire game and went to that instead of blogging (sorry). It was great. I never turn down an opportunity to see Brian McBride – he’s one of my favorite players to EVER play for the U.S. They Fire was playing Pumas and they won 1-0 with a goal from Conde. To be honest, it wasn’t that great of a game until Brian McBride came in in the last 20 minutes. Did he really do anything? No, but I like my players and it makes it more entertaining to see them. I will never forget the 2006 World Cup match against Italy where he got a bloody nose, changed his jersey and came back to keep playing. I think thats enough about soccer for one post though.?

Wednesday:?

Today I wore a plum Express turtleneck (surprise), New York and Company Capris and white RocketDog flats. ?I wore a blue Old Navy tanktop underneath and it makes the back of the shirt look really cool don’t you think? I am also wearing a Juicy Couture friendship necklace my friend Y got me for my birthday last year ( I heart her).?

Here’s my world cup recap!?

?

Spain Wins! Spain Wins! Spain Wins!!!!!?

?

I’m sad that David Villa didn’t score another goal and got subbed out of the game, but they won.?

?

I had to watch part of the game at home, part at the salon, listen to it on ESPN Radio and read the play by play on my cell phone..?

?

but I got through it and i know it’ll be on On Demand so I can rewatch it as often as I like!?

?

Yay Spain for winning! I’m very happy, they deserve it.?

You’re not the one I hoped for… I’ll see you on the other side.

WARNING: This is mostly a soccer post.

So I can’t believe the World Cup FINAL match is on Sunday. I have been
waiting impatiently for four years for the World Cup. It’s a really
big deal to me obviously.

I have thrown all my support behind David Villa and Espana. Yes, I
admit it- I’m holding a grudge against the Dutch. I don’t want them to
win because they sent home my team (Brasil). No I am not dumb, Brasil
is actually correctly spelled with an S not a Z. Anyway, I still hold
a grudge against France from 2006 and was happy to see how quickly
they went home. The pitch isn’t a place for Divas so France and
(though I hate to admit it) England needed to go home and remember
what it means to play in a World Cup.

It is weird because I have been thinking of the last Cup lately and
how different everything is. I was going into my second year of
college and watched almost every game at my patents store. I would ask
my mom to take me so I wouldn’t sleep through the morning games. I
used to think about waiting another four years for Brasil to be on top
again and how different life would be for me in four years. Would I be
happy? Working in PR? Would I still have the same friends? My life is
different than I expected, but still the same. It’s strange and I wish
I could explain more.

Either way, I hope Espana rocks this final, at the very least David
Villa deserves it (even if he does play for Barcelona). So on Sunday I
will be unreachable by phone, email or text, will sport my Real Madrid
jersey and hopefully will be celebrating all day.

Who are you rooting for on Sunday?
