Agua?

I have kind of a big crush on the REAL soccer defender Jamison Olave.  He is from Columbia and I think he is a tremendous athlete and very good looking. (Wink!)  When I heard about the REAL meet the team day set for the end of August I got so excited because I knew I would have an opportunity to meet my crush.... Olave.

It was the first time I had gone to meet the team day for the REAL.  I was excited an anticipated a great exchange with my favorite player.  I have met famous people before and to be honest I get kind of dumb when that happens.  I get a little star struck and mix up my words and say not the most intelligent things.

I had prepared myself all day for the big meeting of Olave.  I felt like the meeting was going to go well.  As my turn came to get my poster sign and talk to my favorite player, he turned to his teammate, Javier Morales and started talking to him in Spanish about water.  Although I don't speak Spanish well I do understand it because of the Portuguese I know.  Olave was asking Morales for some water or vice versa I don't remember but the boys were talking about water.  After their conversation was over Olave turned to me and smiled and I said, "Agua?" ....  That's it.  That is all I said.  Nothing else not even anything like do you want water or do you need a drink of agua, do you like agua, nope just plan old one word Agua.  Haha!  He just looked at me and kind of grinned and said uh, ya.  I turned away I was so embarrassed, there was nothing else I could do.

My hopes and dreams of a spectacular meeting where destroyed in the moment when I got dumb and said, "agua" to the soccer player of my dreams.  What is a girl to do?  I get dumb when I meet famous people.  No more famous people meeting for me its way to embarrassing and I can't take feeling dumb when I meet them.   Hahah!  Agua, anyone?
