I won't try to mask my pain

I'm so sad that Germany didn't make it into the final. Oh, how lovely it would have been to see them play and win the cup! I have to admit, I was so excited (and very nervous) before the game, just take a look at this photo:

I was all pumped and ready for Germany to destroy Spain. And then the game happened. I was just so sad. But I love that team so much, and I will continue to do so. I'm so very proud of them for getting this far when no one expected them to, and I'm going to cheer for them just as hard when they play Uruguay for 3rd place!
