Copa do Mundo!!!!!

Ahhhhhhh finally it is the day I have been waiting for since I found out I was going to Brazil!!!! The opening of the World Cup was today!!!!! Best part was it was in São Paulo!!!! Ahhhhh o my god today was just amazing!!!! First off, it was like a national holiday so no one went to school or work. And EVERYONE was at home watching the game! Like there is this really busy street by my house, and there were hardly any cars. Also, we walked to a restaurant to eat lunch, and we could walk on the street because there were NO cars. Also, everyone was wearing Brazilian shirts, and oooo I was just so excited to watch the game! Then when the game finally was on I was all decked out, and ready to cheer for my second country BRASIL!!! <3 (honestly the opening performance of the cup was weak, and not too exciting, but obviously that didn't ruin my vibe too much kkkkkk) Literally I was sooo excited, I was yelling in portuguese, but so was everyone else lol. I guess that shows when you have really learned a language when that is the first thing that you yell out. But, the worst/ ironic part of the game was the first goal was Croatia, but it was made by a Brazilian (face palm) hahahaha poor guy. Opening game of the cup, in his home country, and he makes a goal for the other team. But, no worries that didn't slow Brasil down! We ended up winning 3-1!!!! 2 by Neymar, and 1 by Oscar. And Marcelo made the score for Croatia, so technically Brasil was the only team to make goals in the game lol. But, this was a very good game, it certainly was not boring. Let's see how many members of the team I can remember..... ok there's Neymar, Oscar, Hulk, David Luiz, Marcelo,  Paulinho, Fred,.........  yeah that's all I can remember at the moment I think there is a guy named T. Silva. Don't worry I will probably have everyone down after the World Cup is over. The only bad thing that happened was during the cup there were more protests going on all over Brasil. But, you know I guess all expected that would happen. But all in all an AMAZING day!!!! Never seen anything like this!! Afterward everyone were shooting of fireworks, and making noise with horns, and running down the street with flags. AHHHHH it was just amazing I will never forget this day!! <3 Can't wait till the next game against Mexico!!!
