Just a Translation…

When I was in sixth grade, I wrote a paper in Spanish Class called con el corazón y apoyo. It was an assignment to write about something you really liked and I chose to write it about what I thought about Costa Rica classifying into the World Cup 2006 Germany that year. It was originally written in Spanish, but I will now translate it for you here below, so you can understand what I wrote.

WITH THE HEART AND SUPPORT

                Costa Rica classified next to Mexico, Trinidad y Tobago, and the United States of America to the World Cup in 2006. The Costa Rican team will inaugurate the World Cup by playing against Germany, the country that was the organizer for the event this year.

                In the group in which Costa Rica was, A.K.A. group A, the teams that are in it were Germany, Poland, and Ecuador.  Ourticos classified with 16 points, Poland with 24, Ecuador with 28, and Germany classified automatically for being the organizers that year. Although Costa Rica did classify with the least number of points in its group, there is still and always be hope. You never know what can happen. Plus, God gave a great gift to the Latin race. This one wakes up from the deep inside were you’ve never been touched before, beats as a second heart, and lets out everything you have inside. It gives the team a new tank of energy. That whylatinos love watching soccer matches at the stadium, and if that’s not possible, they will go and sit in front of the T.V. and shout at the referee as if they were actually at the stadium.

                The team may wake up and give its total because they know that here, in their home, we are supporting them profoundly and literally with our heart.
