Anyone who frequents know I have a thing for tennis since I dont know, secondary school? I used to go wild over Prince of Tennis and watched every single episode/movie I could then. It was so crazy that in school I'll write ryoma echizen all over, I'll save pictures after pictures of him even though he was younger than me and still will be. And naturally, the love for digitally animated tennis lead to an infatuation for real world tennis. I've been a fan of Novak Djokovic for years and I used to lament about how he always lose to Federer or Radal and he never seemed to be able to get his butt off from his No. 3 spot but finally, after years of waiting, he is near the top.
Since last december, he has been on a winning streak in every tournament he participated in, thrashing Federer to gain the No. 2 spot and shocking Nadal with his strokes. This is truly his moment and today marks history where he finally beat Nadal 7-5, 6-4 on clay court (Nadal's speciality!) after 10 attempts. And may I remind everyone that he is only 23! What joy in fact, because next week he may actually push Nadal down to #2 and take the #1 throne - something I've been awaiting for ages.
So I await his good news, GO DJOKOVIC! :D
On another note, I'm sick. D: Wasn't feeling well since yesterday and I went to bed with a heavy head, woke up and didn't feel any better! ): I think the heat really got to me, despite my attempts to drink loads of water. Went to work feeling unwell and got even worse despite the medicine (Now, this is where I'll step in next time rawr). My colleague even commented that I looked pale and might I say that I'm actually pretty dark? Went home to sleep for an hour, then I woke up to catch couple of episodes of House before going back to bed again. A total pig but whatever. It is sad that my afternoon was spent in this manner! I don't know why but even before falling sick I was already feeling fatigue despite my regular sleep hours. ): I feel like I'm getting old.
I baked a cake on sunday, a recipe I got from my colleague, and I think my eggwhites beating was rather successful although every time I think back, I can't figure if it was just nice or a little overbeaten. Nonetheless, going to try more recipes that involve beating eggwhites!
Have yet to firm Imperial, I'm a little scared because it means that I'll really be getting out there and starting a 14 years journey. It's long but what's scary is not knowing what can happen.
All the best to those who are still waiting to hear from their scholarships! (:
