Roland Garros 2009

Tomorrow marks the start of the Roland Garros or the French Open. It is tennis' premier clay court event and the second of four Grand Slams.

There are many contenders but I am hoping Ana Ivanovic will pick up her form and successfully defend her title from the likes of Jankovic, Dementieva and Safina.

In the men's side, everyone sort of knows that the undisputed King Of Clay and world number 1, Rafael Nadal, will win. He has been winning it for the past four years and is undefeated at Roland Garros for 4 years. If he wins this year, it will be his 5th consecutive title, making him immortal on clay.


But of course, I want Roger Federer to win it. Always. So that he can equal Pete Sampras' record of 14 Grand Slams and probably overtake it, making him the best tennis player of all time.
The Swiss Maestro.
In footballing news,
tomorrow is SURVIVAL SUNDAY. 2 relegation spots are up for grabs and four teams will be slugging it out to avoid the grand prize of relegation to the second tier of football, the Coca- Cola Championship.
Talk is of champions Manchester United sending out a weakened side against one of the candidates, Hull City. If Hull win, then Middlesborough and Newcastle will probably go down and it will cause a huge uproar.
But, to me, the Champions League final is wayyyyy more important. So Sir Alex, rest all our top stars. Give the youngsters a chance.
Who knows?
Maybe they'll surprise.
Anything goes in the world of sports.
And that's why I watch it.
:D

Then I came when I was like 10, and became a part of their world and seriously, the first few years were awesome. Cause I had a lot of friends and we played together. Running around, enjoying our years of innocence. Then when we grew up, we drifted apart. Cause everyone became busier and didn't have much time like we used to. We still saw each other, but it just wasn't the same. To be honest, her moving away just sucks. Cause I kinda liked the idea of her being there. Just withing reach and walking distance. It comforts me. And when I saw all the boxes and people carrying it away, it was like my heart became heavy and then I realised, you know what, our childhood was over. No more running around, screaming our heads off. No more hide and seek, block catching, police and thief. No more cycling and going down hills, feel...

Hello. It's me

Wow. It's been 3 years since I last updated. I guess I just got lazy. As always. Being an adult is so tiring. Who knew? All day, every day I'm tired. 2019 is ending soon. Time really flies. Hmm. I can't seem to put my thoughts into words. Maybe another time. See you in the next 3 years maybe?
