Letters To The Bishop For Confirmation

Force delegation!; D 8D

And after my intense night playing Battle Ship with Angelly, discuss the immortality of the crab with Leslie, I just remember Digimon Frontier good times with Natto and find some new pictures Alice / Jasper to enlarge my collection, today I woke up sooo early to see the opening of the Beijing 2008 Olympics , YAY! 8D. Ok, what I can say? the Chinese children have many styles to make a good inauguration: paper giant people "flying" fireworks that are suspended in the air, children make an excellent performance ... especially the little girl imitating the bird (which incidentally also was "flying"), Olympic rings that can off the ground and suspended in the air, thousands of Chinese percussion playing perfectly synchronized, a canvas the size of my development, choreographers who paint to the beat of their own dance, a giant planet earth (levitating) with a beautiful meaning (and more people flying around), an astronaut, a dancer of silk. .. and finally, a whole range of very impressive effects. Forgot something important? Ah yes! The Olympic torch ... where the subject that was also lit flying xD. No, not that I have anything against this beautiful opening, in fact, I found one of the best in years, but particularly not exceed that of Athens 2004 (regardless of my crazy love for Greece, believe it or not xD). I just want to stress here that I came to the conclusion that the Chinese have some hobby of flying. Point.


Anyway, I was fighting my horrible sleep (partly for my bad night, partly because of my innate laziness), but eventually I managed to see every detail of this wonderful event. I looked to pass one after another delegation of representatives of different countries anxious to see happen to mine, which though I knew it would be tiny compared to all that had seen them, I was thrilled to screaming when I saw the parade number 17. And no, not that it is a great athlete (in fact, finish a routine sport simply because it is not left half that taste, relax ... or whatever it is, in itself), but I can say I'm a good spectator. The Olympics are often excited a lot, and the parade of our delegation made me regret in the soul of leaving the selection of athletics in my school or my swimming lessons. And no, not that there's been sooo good to be able to aspire to the Olympics this year, but hey! costs nothing to dream, right? , D. Anyway, I think it is a very important event and full of honor to have the opportunity to represent your country in a competition of such magnitude ... as Claudia Rivero said it is much more pride for an athlete to carry its flag in tow the party itself, and I think he is right. And while many think the "what does it ...?" that our country is recognized worldwide as the birthplace of prominent athletes, the fact is that, in my opinion, should be part of social interest since our compatriots carry the Blanquirroja.


Our football can almost always suck, but we have many other things that take pride: the golden left foot, Cecilia Tait alongside Gaby Pérez del Solar , Cenaida Uribe, Rosa Garcia , Torrealva Gina, Natalia Malaga , among others, brought Peruvian joy to the fans when they won silver medal at the Seoul Olympics in 1988. Pity that Venezuela is dismissed in the last qualifiers for the games this year! But no, we are not just power volleyball xD ... and here I refer not only to the known (and are internationally recognized) by all Sofia Mulanovich and Luis Horna whose laureables merits have already been sufficiently expanded by the media. There are many others that make it very high the name of our country, as Francisco Boza, who in Los Angeles 84, with only 18, won the silver medal in 'grave' Olympics. I followed the steps eight years after John Giha , who on July 28, 1992, in the Olympic Games in Barcelona, gave as an anniversary gift to the country no less than the silver medal in skeet mode. But as concerned Olympics, gave the country no greater sporting achievement Edwin Vasquez, who provided a gun won gold at the London Olympics in 1948, the first games made after the Second Gerra World.


But not everything has to be in relation to the Olympics. I mean, now is the fever, but not necessarily participate in them all our Peruvian sports icons xD. Just to mention a few others, remember to: Adolfo Suárez , "La Bruja , king of billiards Lima in the 50 and 60, and 1961 world champion billiards three bands, Alejandro Olmedo, Arequipa and a precursor to Luis Horna, was champion of the Davis Cup in 1958 and the following year, was doubly winning the Australia Open and then Wimbledon, Akio Tamashiro won a silver medal in the World Mexico, on November 20, 2004; Jenny Lidback was individual champion in golf World Cup in 1985; Felipe Pomar, outside of being the first champion Peruvian table, was also the first worldwide in 1965, during the first event organized by the newly founded International Federation of Table ... ; D to not know that!; the Peruvian team Optimist Sailing (children under 15 years) became world tricampiones to achieve victory in the championships in Northern Ireland (1997), Portugal (1998) and France (1999), and other global subtitles (1996 and 2003) and South American titles ... and this I know because I know one of the children in the selection, Perucho whole power! 8D; finally, and because I do not remember being aware of any other more (sports fans ... SORRY! T_T I have a limited knowledge about it), Cienciano , whose victory in the Copa Sudamericana made us believe in football after muuuuuuchos years xD.


Today I feel that Peru will shine in sport, as we have a wonderful 13 representatives in our delegation, leading and carrying our precious flag today is the wrestler Sixto Barrera , often (but not least important) the aforementioned badminton Claudia Rivero (which, incidentally, be the first to participate in their discipline! 8D), the weightlifter Cristina Cornejo , the shooter Marco Matellini The fencer Maria Luisa Doig , the sailor Paloma Schmidt, the judoka Carlos Zegarra , taekwondo Peter López, José Emmanuel swimmers and Crescimbeni Valeria Silva, and to complete, athletes Loius Tristan, Maria Portillo and Leon Constantine. A small delegation, but certainly powerful. I am sure these teens / adult / whatever ... leave on high the name of our country, and possibly listen to sing more than once our beautiful national anthem at the final awards.


Force Perucho, and much effort! Success for you and all our fellow American ... grrr! 83.


Atte.,


Frustrated Athlete.
