the shirt

as a reminder of this blog....i got 'the shirt' made. 



this shirt is a reminder of one of my favorite soccer players and to play as strong as she does every game. it has been cool to watch Amy Rodriguez play in the world cup - to watch her give it her all, create plays, and react with her teammates.
so, as i wear this shirt to work out or to soccer practices, it is a reminder to give my best. this simple shirt reminds me of the video i watched when i first fell in love with this soccer player that seemed to be my older 'twin'.
ever since this injury of mine became this serious, all i have been doing is watching the US national women's soccer team prepare for the world cup - videos from YouTube of them working out, practicing, and interviews. although it makes me wish i could play soccer even more, it is encouraging and inspiring to see what they went through to get to the World Cup. so, i might need to get a few more shirts made (after watching and falling in love again with a few other athletes)....but first I have to paint my coaches garage since she is the one who paid for the shirt! :)

AND don't forget, the finals of the women's world cup is on Sunday! USA vs. Japan..... Go USA!!! :)
(i'm still waiting for my girl, Amy, to score a goal!!! maybe if i wear this shirt she will on Sunday?!)
