This
has nothing to do with Jowan (this was the second we walked into the stadium)
Some people say they know Sergio, and I was also one of them. But after last night I really got
to know him so much better. We had the best time in the world. The closer we got to the stadium
for the opening ceremony the more fun we were having. But let me start from the beginning. There
were some issues with the attire, but nothing to complicated. So were suppose the share a bus
with Russia, but the Russian felt more like walking (still don’t know why). We got to the arena
were all the delegations gather before they walk out. It was this huge arena and we had to sit
all the way up top. You could see from up there how everybody was getting all excited, it was
amazing, but a whole lot of waiting though. I saw something amazing in the arena, a Filipino
with a whole lot of style. Miguel had the Kanye West shades on, it was a Kodak moment. The night
really started when they called out “Netherlands Antilles”. When we got out of the arena I saw
the longest line ever. There were these Chinese volunteers that we having the time of their life
and pumping everybody up. I never have seen so many smiles in my lifestyle. Even though Sergio
didn’t know Papiamento(My native Language) he a [art of the group like he lived on Curacao all
his life. When it was finally time to experience what I’ve been dreaming about for years now
Sergio called his wife and kids and was talking to them on the phone while walking into the
stadium. That man is crazy. I don’t have any words to describe what I felt when I walked out
there in front of the whole world. And when China finally walked out and to hear all the people
go crazy, that moment right there made me realize how big the Olympics really is. All the fire
works, lights and spirit in that stadium was AMAZING. That is all I can say, maybe because I
don’t have a big vocabulary. So that’s why I have some pictures to explain better crazy last
night was.
