8 - I'm Harry Potter book .... Part One .... Daniel in Russia!

My newest Nickname

Again, I apologize for the long break between blog posts… I have been a bit tongue tied as of late due to some conflicting emotional peaks and valleys I have been experiencing.  But, not to worry, my head is held higher than ever! I don’t know if any of you have heard about our last game, but we unfortunately lost the semi finals 2-1.  It was a very interesting game.  But, enough about that… I have been able to keep my head high by focusing on things that I really enjoy like taking pictures, and walking around town with my good friend here, Ximel. 
I should first tell you that I have taken on a new nickname that I find to be a bit of an insult... a couple nights ago before going to dinner I decided to take out my contacts because my eyes were burning a bit.  I put on my glasses and went down to dinner. As I walked in all the coaches started laughing and one of them said "Oye, Hillary!" Of course, not knowing they were referring to me I just proceeded to stand in line to get my food.  But again... "Hillary! Hillary Clinton!" And then the Russian girls were laughing too... and then it hit me that they were talking to me... they were calling me Hillary because she is probably the only American female they know who is not just a body or a face on the cover of a magazine... and I have glasses on soooo clearly I look like Hillary Clinton... I chuckled a bit thinking ya ya, real funny... American women... sooooo funny how smart we are... ha ha.  But the Russians got a real kick out of it, so much so that it has since stayed.  They never really got the hang of my name "Zaneela" as that was a mouth full plus we already have a Danny on the team... so I was just "America"... and now I am either "America" or "Hillary" (pronounced "Am-ed-eeka" and "Heel-a-dee").  The worst part was that one of the Russian girls said "choo choo"... which meant that she actually thought I looked a little like Hillary Clinton...
Examination of FUTBOL WOMEN ... Fox Hoven wrong .... It is similar to Clinton!
