Anyway, I spent almost like the whole day yesterday watching badminton and tennis matches. Yup, Wimbledon is now over. Probably a good thing too cos now I can maybe sleep earlier. Anyway, last night's match, no surprise that Federer won. I wanted Roddick to win, but I knew Federer would. He totally outclassed Roddick. The match was so much faster than I'd thought it would be (I was thinking it would go to 4 sets), it's even faster than the women's singles final! The women's singles, I'd expected Venus to win, after seeing how she beat Sharapova in the semis. Of course I wanted Sharapova to win, but Venus played better. That match was like a catfight. Both whacked the balls so hard, yet they could still scream whenever they hit a shot. Apparently, quite a few of the people who watched the match live brought earphones with them. Haha. It was really that loud. Anyway, I'm more determined than ever now to watch Wimbledon live haha. Hopefully, if I go there one day, I'll still be able to see the current players that I like.
Badminton matches were exciting too. I only watched the men's singles and men's doubles (for obvious reasons). Was so happy Taufik won! The match was, again, so much faster than I'd thought it would be. I didn't know it was going to be so one-sided! The men's doubles was really really exciting. Gosh.. the players' reflexes are so fast! There was one point in the match which I thought was really really funny. In the middle of a rally, one of the Indonesian players (I think it was Candra) actually ran to the side and changed his racket and ran back to the court again! It happened in a flash, but it was really hilarious! Haha I mean I've never seen anything like it. My brother, who has the season ticket (thanks Zhimei for the tix!), went to the stadium practically everyday. Of course he was supporting Indo; he got the Indo flag with him haha. Yesterday, he actually managed to get pictures of Taufik, Sigit and Candra. But not their autographs haha.
Anyway, I know I definitely have a lot of things to do. It's only like 1.5 months left before I go. I have to pack my stuff, buy stuff, think of my course schedule, learn to cook (yup!), think of which laptop I wanna get, etc etc. I know there're so many things to do. But yet I'm just slacking now. Bleah I just know that my packing would probably be so last-minute! At least now I know that I get to stay in my first-choice dorm, so yah that's good news :)
