The first post of 2009, and it's on February... *sweatdrop*
Yepz,
Finally floated up... Right now, I'm kinda dying over here... Just came back from Melbourne. Caught one semi-finals. Granted, all of us had been disappointed that it wasn't Federer that was playing, but Rafael/Fernando match was good nonetheless! XD Got lower rung seats - it was near, but thankfully not near enough for us to have to turn our heads constantly to watch the ball flying over the courts. Haha.
Imagine, reaching there at 3pm for the women's doubles finals and staying there all the way till 1+am. I almost died halfway through the men's semi-finals, but it was such a close match! You could hear the silence when the game's on, how all of us groaned when either of the players missed a ball during a good game. Verdasco just kept chasing after games, and the tiebreakers... Man, this is the first time I saw so many tiebreakers in a match XD I really liked how they just kept sprinting after the bal when it was so far away, and still many to lob/volley it over!
Okay... So now I'm officially interested in tennis. Not just PoT XDDDDD
( Piccies... Finally! XD )
Will definitely come back tomorrow to watch the finals at home (the good tickets are too expensive... *sweatdrop*). I'll end up missing the CNY fireworks... At least I've watched the Australia Day one. That's good enough for me XDDDD
Will update about my NZ trip soon. With pictures! *crosses fingers*
