Frustrated

at last i'm free, but not for long. midterm exams' over, but haven't done assignments yet. not too happy with my answers in the exam questions. *frustrated* but nothing i can do about it.

so this morning, after the last paper, i went home, and catch the US open, Andy Roddick in action. i thought i could watch Andy again playing in the semi-final, this time no book in my hand. but..


urrghh, another frustration, i came home to watch him lose his match. sad sad sad.


now i got no one to support again. have to support roger federer.

today's matches aren't that interesting, well to me maybe..
hmm, but still gonna watch anyway, hehe
only the 12 am match, the 2.45 am is way toooooo late. *yawn*
*screams* can't wait for france and holland's game!!!
can't sleep, can't relax . lol

i'm so bored here that i have nothing to post in my blog.
all just boring stories. sigh
my mood now is one minute happy, one minute sad
i'm in a fairy tale when i'm happy, in reality when i'm sad.
nah, dont wanna talk about it. -.-

predicted!

yay!!!!!!!!
my heart raced by just watching tennis. and it isn't the final yet.
haha. i can't pick a favourite between nadal and djokovic. sometimes i want nadal, the next i want djokovic. :S
eventually, nadal made it into the final. no complain. well played. he deserved to win.
thank goodness federer hit his way into the final.
it's gonna be a nice final match!

women's final. hopefully dinara safina wins :)
i watched her beat maria sharapova, elena dementieva and svetlana kuznetsova.
good fighting spirit. i want that too. lol

after tennis, it's football fever again. ahhhhhhhhhhhh
EURO 2008
ah, if tennis made my heart pound so fast, football is going to give me a heart attack!
i hope there's no need for an ambulance. lol
worse of all, my favourite teams are in the group of DEATH.
why? why? why? :(
france and holland, u've gotta make it to the next round alive.
no mercy on italy and romania. lol

French Open

Robby Ginepri was the first US man to reach the fourth round and the last US man to bite the dust.
Now i'm left with no one to root for.
Heartbreaking news weeks ago when Andy Roddick pulled out of the French Open.
He's not even competing for the Olympics. :(


I'm no fan of Roger Federer. Neither am I of Rafael Nadal.
High possibility that both of them are going to face each other in the final. :)
Only person to stand in their way is Novak Djokovic.
Then i'm gonna support FedEx. I want him to win that elusive French Open title.
GO GO GO!!! ;)



These are some photos of Robby. Cute ;)

Andy Roddick's great ace

Mikhail Youzhny reacts badly

watch this video, see how he did it, and how he went on to win the match. only the hitting part is in this video though. lol

Tennis player killed pigeon
