It will be a very long time before this topic is over and done in Puerto Rico.

Puerto Ricans party and we party hard.

Just wait until Mónica goes back to the Island.

This has been an amazing feat!

Mónica Puig did what was thought to be the impossible

She won the Olympic Gold Medal in Women’s Single Tennis.

She won this medal while representing Puerto Rico’s Olympic team.

Show your pride!

Again, thank you, Mónica!

A Puerto Rican Moment …. “It Happens …. “Our National Anthem …. “!!

~~August 15, 2016~~ 

THE NATIONAL ANTHEM

Whenever a Boricua hears this song, memories come flashing back of Puerto Rico.

It’s a beautiful song.

The lyrics are romantic, meaningful, magical.

For the first time ever the anthem was played at an Olympic Games.

By now we all know it’s because of Mónica Puig’s gold medal win.

My feelings are awaken by this win and by listening to “La Borinqueña” in the Río Arena.

TRANSLATED LYRICS

La tierra de Borinquien
donde he nacido yo,
es un jardín florido
de mágico fulgor.

Un cielo siempre nítido
le sirve de dosel
y dan arrullos plácidos
las olas a sus pies.

Cuando a sus playas llego Colón;
Exclamo lleno de admiración;
“Oh!, oh!, oh!, esta es la linda
tierra que busco yo”.

Es Borinquén la hija,
la hija del mar y el sol,
del mar y el sol,
del mar y el sol,
del mar y el sol,
del mar y el sol.

National Anthem – La Boriqueña Lyrics

A Puerto Rican Moment …. “It Happens …. “Monica Puig …. Olympic Gold”!!

~~August 13, 2016~~ 

OLYMPIC GOLD

En un suceso histórico, la tenista ponceña Monica Puig le otorga a Puerto Rico su primera medalla de oro para la isla.

La joven de 22 años se impuso ante la alemana Angelique Kerber en un juego que paralizó a todos los boricuas dentro y fuera de la isla.

Puerto Rico ha participado en los juegos de verano desde el 1948 pero nunca antes había obtenido medalla de oro.

Monica Puig Makes Olympic History, Winning Puerto Rico’s First Gold Medal

Puerto Rico now has its first Olympic gold medal, courtesy of tennis star Monica Puig, who beat Germany’s Angelique Kerber in the women’s singles tournament at Rio’s Summer Olympics Saturday.

“I”m speechless,” a smiling Puig said after her historic win. “I wanted it so bad.”

“I never imagined in my wildest dreams that this would happen,” Puig added — and she said her experience in Rio de Janeiro has been like a dream. She’s looking forward, she said, to waking up tomorrow morning and seeing her gold medal sitting on her bedside table.

As for her plans after the Olympics, Puig said, “I know my life is going to change a bit.” But she said some things won’t — because, she added, “I love what I do.”
