The 1st friday we spent 2gether:
We've arranged 4 chel 2 cum 2 my hs in the morning since i'm skipping csa. Also, since both chel n feli were stayin over @ my hs hs that nite, we've decided that chel cums 2 my hs 1st 2 leave her clothings while we wait 4 feli 2 cum n leave her htings @ my hs after her sch b4 waiting 4 lin 2 call 2 lunch 2gether. Lin took longer than we've expected(as usual).So, we've contempted 2 jus laze around in my room with sum air-con(we've took sum nice fotos though). We were famished by the time lin called. We then decided 2 go 2 iluma 2 get our movie tickets 1st b4 meeting her @ our favourite/must go eating place: Seoul Garden @ bugis junction! We rushed 4 e food n quickly filled our stomachs. Surprisingly, the naughty rachel started 2 'whip up' her own dish(video is available which will b uploaded later, damn funny!). She started 2 'cook' leftover/unwanted food on the hotplate with fried rice, she even poured sum FnN grape into her 'dish'. Worst still, she even tasted her 'dish' (Yewwwwwwwwwwww, Yucksssssssssssssssss). But she still enjoyed the 'dish' very much. Unbelieveable!The 3 of us then kept making fun of her. We were bloated by the end of the buffet. We had 2 even rush 4 our movie, UP(3D version). The show quite hilarious and enjoyable overall 4 us. The cinema too had only a few people which enabled us 2 relax more. By the time our show ended it was quite late @ nite. Lin took a ride from her mum's her while chel, feli n i went back 2 bugis junction 2 get some snacks 4 our 'overnite' party. We reached home @ around 10.30pm and begun our 'party'. Firstly, we indulge(sry, dun remember hw 2 spell) ourselves in sushi and ice cream soda and @ the mean time watch the 'you're my destiny'. After that, when i started 2 bcome sleepy, chel and feli went 2 play wii. I dun really noe wat time they played until but i was the 1st 2 'knock out'. i didnt have enough stamina 2 last thru e whole nite.

My best friend, Rachel Lee
My best friend, Rachel Lee (blogging from my grandma's funeral)
One of my best friend, rachel, was back in Singapore for 2 weeks. I was very very excited when the day was approaching. I have missed her so so so much ever since she went over to study in UK. Recalling the day that we sent her off seems kinda funny to me. After sending her off, feli and i went to the overhead bridge outside the library to 'let-out'. Feli cried and screamed @ the same time, was kinda funny 2 me (it was those type of 'exaggerting cry'. Luckily it was early in the morning and i think feli and i were the only ones there. hahahahahahha was all i could express @ that time. Even though i was utterly sad that my best friend had left the country, but feli's cry was too funny for me 2 stop crying and laugh @ her (sry feli). haha.
So then, i was counting down to the day rachel was cuming back to SG. The night b4 we were still chatting online and she told me that she could only stay 4 a week due 2 accomodation problems. That really freaked me out. We've planned so many things 2 do 2gether, worst still she was due here during my exam period. Thankfully later she called again and told me that the problem had been solved and she was still going 2 stay 4 2weeks. Finally the day had arrived, Feli and i wanted 2 'fetch' her from the airport. We decided 2 meet @ the mrt b4 'fetching' her but....as usual, feli was late. Then we had 2 run from the mrt all the way to the airport bus terminal(very tiring!) to catch the shuttle bus 2 the budget terminal. When we arrived @ the budget terminal, chel had already arrived and instead, she was the one waiting 4 us. My 1st impression of her was: wow, u've grown prettier! Her hair had grown longer and striaghter and she was wearing the clothes that she would not wear in the past. However, my 2nd impresson was: actually u did not change much. The wallet, handphone, spectacles,etc was still the same! Even her behaviour did not change. Unbelieveable! After waving goodbye 2 her parents and brother, we headed 2 my house(which she had not been 2 yet) 2 play some games and meanwhile 2 wait 4 the latecomer, weilin. We also had dinner in my hs and rachel updated us with her life in UK. It was really nice 2 have her back! 2wards 8pm @ nite, we went 2 the mrt 2 pick our latecomer, lin, haiyo always late 1 (but i wont blame her, who ask her jc lifestyle so hectic). She played with us so wii b4 my dad fetched chel back(i had comm. skills presentation the next day). And that's all 4 the 1st day that we had her...i will update the photos and the other days spent 2gether later on...

Michael Chang
Holding Serve, Michael Chang
I've jus read the biography of Michael Chang. Michael Chang story was very heart warming to me. It states that the Chang family have been so poor when Michael was young. The family had to scrimp and save in order for michael and his brother to play tennis. Michael had to overcome cramps and mental strength in order to win his 1st and only grand slam. As he had suffered badly from cramps while playing top players like Ivan Lendle and Stefan Edberg, he had to play smart. All types of shots like the underhand and going up to the service line came up in order to win the tournament. It was such an emotional win for him and his family as he became the youngest ever player to win the French Open. Though i was disappointed that he chose to play for America rather than Taiwan or China, but i would never blame him. Who ask him to be Simon's inspirational player. But overall the book was good except that it had too much of the cristianity going around.

Wimbledon review '09
Review of wimbledon 2009
Had wanted to post this entry a long time ago but was simply too bz. ok, so this year's wimbledon saw no.1 seed n defending champ. r.nadal MIA. Sadly, this puts federer in the driver's seat and he won(SO???). The worst thing is that he gets to take over nadal to bcome world no.1. Anyway, 4get bout this. Lets tok bout my Simon. well, this year was his personal best @ wimbledon by reachin the 4th round. Though he had lost in 4th round to world no.70 n former wimbledon champ, but @ least he still have wins over Hanescu who knocked him @ the French Open(Simon had a leg injury but still perservered to the end). Congrats Simon! Get better each year and win the slam soon! Next, Tommy Haas went on to a running streak to reach the semi while Andy murray was quite disappointing to lose @ the semi despite being the no.2 seed. The man to look out for was Ivo Karlovic who served very good aces and many of it. Llyton Hewitt was good too. He knocked out el potro on his way 2 the quaters. In the women's draw, the women who looked out for was Elena Dementieva. She had a match point against eventual winner, serena williams. On the other hand, dinara safina was terrible by taking only 1 game from venus williams during the semis. That's all i can comment. Hope simon will win the tournament nxt year!

Roland Garros review '09
Final summary for Roland Garros'09
Both the men's n women's final was sadly, boring! In fact, the semis was much more exciting than the finals. federer won in straight sets, matching pete sampras's record and Kuznetsova also won in straight sets. Boring! Seriously, without soderling, federer could not have won the roland garros. Oh yar... suddenly thought of one intrerestin part...while watchin e men's final, this man, while holding a swiss flag, charged 2wards federer. that scared the hell out of federer! Funny though. Other than that, nothing much le. Hope nxt year's roland garros would be mch more exciting with simon winning the title!
Wat the hell happened to me?
2dae, i had a terrible headache since afternn. 2wars nite time, it gt worse tat i cried terribly n dad thought that i watched too much tv tat caused the headache. He scolded n i felt worse...and when i really went to puke, he then believed tat i wasnt faking it. I think 2dae's headache was b far, the most excruciating 1. it had caused me to puke mant times 2dae.Thankfully, my maid massaged my neck n head n i felt slightly better. playin tennis 2moro and have been lookin forward to it so i dont wan 2 miss it @ all! Hope i can recover by 2moro!

Midst of French Open '09
French Open- Boon or Bane
French open(a.k.a Roland Garros) was a disaster this year. Most of the top 10 players crashed out of the tournament in the early stages, not only for the men's draw but for the women's draw as well. First casualty from the men's draw was my dear Gilles Simon who tasted defeat due to injury as i have mentioned on my previous draw. The second 1 was a shocker, Novak djokovic, who fell to the hands of someone who have jus defeated simon jus a week or so ago. Then was followed by tsonga, verdasco, roddick and a huge surprise, Rafeal Nadal. Seriously, this year's French Open to me, was a tournament of demise. Most of the 10 players were ousted by lower ranked player. By the quarters only federer, monfils and del potro are left(all of which are within the bottom half of the draw). I am really curious, wat has happened to these players? has fatigue played a part in it?
On the women's draw on the other hand, world no.3 venus was among the 1st casulty of the many top 10 players. The next casualties was followed by elena dementieva, Ana ivanovic, Jelena Jankovic, Victoria Azarenka and Serena Williams. Only survivor left: Safina and Kuznetsova.
Wat a boring French Open but will be lookin forward for the grasscourt season!

Simon in French Open '09
A twist and turn
It's the french open! 2 days ago, i was delighted! Simon won in straight sets after a 1st-round-5-set-match. It's been a long time since he played and won comfortably. However, 2nite, i feel so terrible. Simon lost in straight sets to the guy he won 2 years bac to win a tournament. I totally do not blame him. He was injured. He was sort of limping towards the end of the game. @ least he did not give up and would rather concede the match than to retire due to injury. He really has good sportsmanship! He is so fragile that 1 little injury may cause a great impact to his body and that's wat worries me the most. I am afraid that his injury is too serious that he have to miss the next tournament. he was already down with flu now he has an addition knee injury! omg! y is it so unfair! y is he so unlucky? i really hope that he recovers and i wanna let him know that he has my support! Hope all French dont blame him too and dont dislike him too. he too feels sad! JiaYou, Simon!
