The end of my 5-week intensive french session has come to a sad yet happy end. I had my last exam today, and now I'm really looking forward to heading home to ma famille and all my favourite peeps. It's been a blast!! You don't even understand how glad I am that I made this decision. Meeting new people from all around was undoubtedly the best part, oh well that and the rafting experience. I will forever cherish the amazing moments I had here in Québec. Now I'm off to do bigger and better things with my improved french =)
On a different note, exciting news:
So it's that time again.....which one you may ask? The time that comes around every 4 years...FIFA World Cup 2010!! Ironically, it's the only time when I will actually feel a genuine desire to watch soccer. Haha. This time, it takes place in South Africa.
I still remember the huge celebration 4 years earlier after Italy kicked France's butt in penalties (which by the way got a lot of controversy at the time). It. Was. Epic. All of Toronto was in full Forza Italia party mode, even non-Italians were out on the streets waving the Italian flag, passionately cheering out in victory. I have never felt so proud to be Italian at that moment lol.
I'm predicting it to be amazing this year regardless of which country wins the Cup. Obviously, I'm going for my two countries Mexico and Italy but there are two others that I'm cheering for as well, Brazil and Argentina. Why Brazil, 'cause they're freakin' great. Why Argentina? 'cause they're also freakin' great...and because I have Argentinian relatives. You know what's the best part about World Cup Soccer? It brings people of all nations and cultures together in harmony. It's a beautiful thing.
With that I leave you a music vid for the official 2010 FIFA World Cup featuring Shakira. It's quite catchy! Enjoy...
