I saw this MTV on Youtube, moving and touching. It is supposed to be enthusiastic and passionate, but I read a little sorrow and regret in it.

When I saw Ballack and Zidane, their face with strong determination and confidence, their heart with passion and optimism, I realized that they were leaving us, the audience with the same passion and optimism, the audience who love them so much; they were leaving us, the lawn field they ran and laughed with freedom, the lawn field they dropped tears and sweat and sorrow.

They will not show up in South Africa this time, but their spirits of competetion and defense for the honor of their nations will never be forgotton by the loving fans.

Really sorry to hear about Ballack, but World Cup in South Africa still deserves our passion and devotion. Hope to enjoy this soccer summer in America.

Haha...thank you! I am actually quite concerned about the information of World Cup, the name list of each team and schedules of each match. However, Americans are not fans of soccer at all! They may not broadcast the matches here. But I will still try to figure out how it goes. If I were in Germany or Britain, oh gosh, I bet it would be hot and fabulous.

The stars I love will mostly not show up this time, Ballack, Beckham, Ronaldo, etc which is so sad about it. But maybe I could find some cooler new stars there! I bet!

I believe you, my cousin, will enjoy your summer alot! It will kick ass!

I  feel  the   foot  marking  of  World  Cup  is  closing  from  this  month.
Though  I am not  a  fan   of  soccer  games,  I  still  care  about  the  winner  of  World  Cup  everytime.
And  I  so  enjoy  the  moment  of  stars   shooting  the  football.

To  introdute  your  travel   in   detail , you  said  too   simple.

莲步青云

Last weekend, we traveled to St. Louis, the former colony of Britain, France and Spain.

The trip was so awesome! We went on the top of the Gateway Arch, went down to the Museum of Westward Expansion, took the Tom Sawyer Boat on Mississippi River, went to old court house and old St. Louis downtown, which looks like a small European town to me. We also went to the Forest Park, where there is the FREE zoo, which is fantastic! I saw more animals than in Memphis zoo. It was so fantastic and I just hoped you were there! We would have alot to comment on the animals. But personally I still like the way Memphis zoo organizes and classifies the animals.

However, my SD card in the camera had errors and could not view the pictures I took nor even turn on the camera. I was so upset about that and thought I lost all my photos taken on the first day. And of course, when we went to the zoo the second day, I could not use my camera at all! Well, I thought that was the biggest regret of my trip to St. Louis because a tour without pictures is totally blank although there would be good memories. Nevertheless, the 'adventure' was not over. On the way back to Memphis, we found that something was stuck on the fan of the car. We opened the car at the front, and adjusted it a little bit. We thought it was fine. However, after an hour, we found that the temperature of the car was extremely high. So we got off the car, and checked it again. Oh my GOSH!! One pipe closed to the fan was totally melted and disappeared! Then heavy smoke and steam came out of the car, and we were so scared and thought it would explode. We ran away from the car and looked back. It was still shooting off steam. We called for help from his dad and we just waited for people to come and rescue us.

At first, I didn't take it seriously. I thought it was the part of adventure. Being trapped in the middle of nowhere, only with huge land of grass, beautiful sunset, and flying cars and trucks. It was just like in the movies. However, as time went by, it became darker and darker. I felt a little worried and scared of being hit by the roaring cars beside because there were no lights or fences on the road. It was chilly too with mosquitoes everywhere round me. At that time, I felt a little desperated.

The funny thing is, when we were busy with calling people for rescue, one of our friend was busy calling people to take care of his dog. He talked on the phone, "No, no, no...I am not worried about going back home. I am just worried about my dog" ...

After 2 hours sitting by the highway, we finally got people come and took the car and drove us back to downtown Memphis. When we eventually reached home, it was 12pm already, extremely exhausted. When we got St. Louis, there was a commerial on the map, 'One unforgettable experience'. Well, I should say, yeah, it IS unforgettable and I've got alot to tell other people what I experienced and how I felt on this adventurous journey!
