Paint the town red(and yellow)

Hi all its been a long time..

life's been pretty slow lately... wasting my time lazing around and sometimes help my mum in the office. a nice change of pace from studying...

went to NUS bookshop to pick up a few books haha... managed to see the new batch of "meddies" getting their books.

and i witnessed the wimbledon final between Rafa Nadal and Roger Federer.. it was EPIC...

i mean, i really felt like playing tennis after seeing it(stopped since sec 4) i was deciding whether to see it live and i in the end i saw it. and it was the BEST MATCH EVER... longest in the wimbledon history. Nadal started strongly and took the first two sets easily, bearing in mind Federer never lost a set leading up to the finals in 2 years. And in the third set tie break, Nadal broke  Federer's serve and at 5-2 was serving for the championship. I was rooting for Federer so i was hoping he could pull off a miracle. And he showed why he is the world No.1 by executing an absolutely fabulous passing shot that Nadal could do nothing about to rescue the point and eventually took the set to force the game into a 4th set. Rain interrupted the play twice and Federer took the 4th set again in a tiebreak 7-6. Despite Federer's brillance and dominance on the grass, this was to be Spain's year. Nadal was in the driving seat throughout the game had the world No.1 on the backfoot. A mean feat and its hard to imagine Nadal is still only 22. Federer's near perfect serve and stunning forehand kept him in the game but eventually in the fifth set, Nadal managed to break his serve and eventually took the game to spark off scenes of euphoria throughout his contingent in the stands and no doubt back in Madrid. A dramatic finish to a 4hr long game spoilt by rain but full of drama and tennis from another planet. Nadal dropped to the floor while Federer looked in consolable. If he had won he would win a record 6th wimbledon in a row. However, another record was broken as Nadal became only the 2nd spanish to win Wimbledon after Santana to set another record and eventually stop the previously irrepressible swiss Fedex. In singapore i think i hit the bed at 5am with adrenaline still pumping my body with a crazy smile on my face. =) 

and oh... im playing tennis this sunday. haha

and oh i saw "Hancock"

i was quite skeptical about another superhero movie but this was different. It showed a different hero with a few unexpected twists here and there and an unexpected ending. It was totally unpredictable (to me) and so i would recommend it to you guys.
