Mexico vs Senegal

-
Yesterday I went to see the Mexico vs Senegal game at soldier field. We parked a couple of blocks away so we would not get stuck in a parking lot, but seems lots of other people thought the same thing. Anyway, as we walked we began to see lots of die hard fans, the painted faces, the big Mexican flags and hearing all the horns. I saw this cute little girl she was all bundled up and ready to cheer for her team!

Everywhere you turned you could see the red white and green. It was really exciting, but at the same time I was a little nervouse, because you know that you will always have the guys who drink just a little too much and become annoying and well cause some kind of problem. As we made our walk to the parking lot close to the soldier field we saw more and more fans and more and more flags being waved big and small.


As we made our way into the field we got to see Memo Ochoa warming up at least I thought but as I observed more he was just standing around looking and waving at his fans.

Then our Mexico team all came out to warm up. I knew they were coming out not cause I saw them but because of all the cheering that was going on. I saw them once they were all on the field, warming up. Our awesome Mexico team!

I cannot believe how many people were there. I did not think it was going to be that packed, boy was I wrong. We have some die hard fans in Chicago and this proved it. There were over 60,000 fans there! I can't remember the exact number but it was insane! Here is a pic I took of the stadium when the game began. This crowd actually did the wave and it was awesome looking!

I was able to take a pic of when they were celebrating their goal by Medina! I was a little disappointed cause we could of won 3-1 but was happy we won regardless!

I had a blast and enjoyed watching our team win, but looking at how crazy people get I don't think I would like to take my kids to a soccer game till they are about 12. That way I don't worry about them getting trampled on or getting hit by a can of beer, or cup of pop. Anyway, here are more pics I took enjoy!

I'm a little upset that I didn't post this dream earlier cause I remembered so many details, but now I'll just write about what I do can remember. So I remember we were walking down a dirt hill, I was with a guy, I kind of remember Kevin Miller for some reason (an old co-worker of mine). Anyway, he was telling me how that hill was haunted by some old man. And as he was talking about that we noticed there was a kid in front of us walking down the hill, bouncing a basketball, he would then pass it to the left and the ball would bounce a few times and then get passed back to the kid. Weird I know lol. I remember that freaked me out! I was like DID YOU SEE THAT!! OMG your right it is haunted!! Then next thing I remember the ground started shaking, and then I was with my kids we were running up a hill to get away from the water that was rising, Danny as he would in real life was saying it's ok, you can stay here we will be fine, I course didn't listen to him and took the...

Lie lier pants on fire!

So one thing I really dislike is people who lie! And you have those that are very good liers, I mean they have things to back their lies up, people backing their lies up just the works. Those are good liers that get away with lots of things. And then course you have your bad liers, those people really annoy me, I mean seriously if your going to lie, then at least try to be a good lier not half ass it and be busted and look like a dumb ass, which by the way all types of liers end up doing, looking like dumb asses when they are busted. The thing I find really sad is when a person whom you thought to be a friend or at least someone you thought you could trust, lies in your face and then gets sooo busted! Wow, I mean, I feel ashamed and embarrassed for them. I know that I have told some white lies here and there, cause I'm only human but nothing severe. Anyway done with my rambling, just wanted to get things out. Here's my note on liers, you might think that your getting away with ...

It's so hard

Just got off the phone with my aunt in Mexico who has breast cancer. Its so hard to stay positive and try and be strong for her. It seems so much health and money issues surround my family and some friends, that I can't help sometimes but to silently cry, and feel sad for them. I have always thought of myself as a strong person and I never really have liked to let ppl see me cry or down. It makes me feel weak and helpless. I hate that feeling. But to hear family member after family member suffering from sicknesses and money issues, I can't help it. It brings me down, makes me want to go curl myself into a ball and just cry. I want to help, I want to help them all. Then guilt sets in, am I doing what I can for them? Am I giving what I can? Am I really trying to help? Its too much! I can't, I have to stay strong, keep thinking about my kids, myself and making sure we are all ok, and good and not in the situation that they are in, because if I let that happen then I can't ...
