The Only Constant Is Change

First off, I must thank the ever amazing hopechaser for single-handedly covering the World Cup and doing such a brilliant job at it. She is a true star and the best watishista correspondent that a girl could ask for. She’s been holding down the fort at a time where I’m just not capable of doing so and I am very grateful.

I’m not good with change and that’s an understatement. I’ve been going through massive change in my personal life which is why I haven’t been around this summer. While I feel that all the upheaval will ultimately be beneficial, it doesn’t make the process any easier. So when my team has been going through similar changes, it has been very difficult for me to write about.

Mesmerized. That’s what you’re feeling right now. Or maybe it’s just what I’m feeling. Naaaaaahhhh, you are too. Join me in the shallow end of the pool, won’t you.

Someone asked me to tell them the hottest players at the World Cup and I told them to just google the Icelandic team. I’m not wrong.

{The mesmerizer above, btw, is Icelandic midfielder/model Rúrik Gíslason. His instagram follower count has increased by 400,000+ since the Germany vs Iceland match on Saturday. Hmmm mmmm. We’re all in the shallow end of the pool.}
