Homesick


I became very homesick last Saturday.

You see, Mexico won soccer's gold medal against Brazil.  First time E.V.E.R.  It's hard to portray what this win means to Mexicans.  To my American friends -- think Super Bowl and 4th of July fused together.  Think of people yelling "goooooooooooooolllll" all across the nation.  Think people (literally) flooding the streets after winning.  Think of the most patriotic thing you've ever experienced and times it by two.  Get the idea?
