A Greek Tragedy

Hi there!!

I know the pictures have nothing to do with what I'm going to write about, but I wanted to share some more with you! Hope you enjoy them!

Now tell me, is the country paralized by Argentina's performance in the World Cup??

I read the newspapers on the Net and I still can't believe it! It's a game, you win or you lose guys! It's as simple as that!

But well, here in London people were extremely sad last weekend when England lost to Germany. That day, we were on a tour in Bath, Salisbury and Stonehenge and streets were deserted, everybody was at home watching the match! And when the match finished, we 'interviewed' our guide and he was sadly disappointed at the result. I said 'Come on! Life goes on!' and he laughed, but yesterday I have to admit I had a similar sensation. I think the problem is that there were great expectations of success and now that we were beaten by Germany it's a Greek tragedy. It's a game!!! Terrible things happen in the world and everybody is worried about a football match! Whether we win the World Cup or not all the political, economic and educational issues in our country will still exist. I know many people will disagree with me but well, this is the way I see it.

Hugs to all of you!

Constanza.
