Kicked off today with a very exciting game South Africa v. Mexico. It was a 1-1 draw, but lots of exciting moments and jumping up and screaming at the TV. I am not a big soccer fan during the general year, although as a sports fan I couldn't really escape watching some games. But I love watching during the Olympics. And now in the World Cup I plan to watch as many matches as I can. Every stadium is so beautiful, and is built on ground I know sooo well. They have done an amazing job getting ready for this tournament and I am so so proud. I am sure I will shed a tear every time I sing the anthem. It's amazing to see my fellow South Africans so filled with excitement and unity, and it is wonderful that they are show-casing the wonderful parts of South Africa. It's going to be an emotional month ahead! We love you, South Africa!!
