You're going to call me crazy. I stayed up until 4am last night watching a tennis game on tv. Can you believe that? The things you do when you're a fan of something... And I tell you I was nervous! Roger wasn't at his 100% yesterday and even though I tried to remain calm, nerves got the best of me a couple of times. Nothing like my mom though, she was in the edge of her chair, she kept saying how much she hated Tipsarevic and wanting Roger to win every point, she even talked to him, like he'd listen to her. She made laugh for sure, I kept telling her to relax that if the guy is number 1 in the world, he didn't get there by giving up on challenges or getting everything handed to him. It was an amazing match it was over 4 hours long and even though I probably have a few premature gray hairs, I enjoyed it. Other than that they were very few matches yesterday because of the rain, so they could only use the covered courts. Ferrero plays today against Nalbandian, and I think he might have a chance of winning. He was in good shape in Sydney and Nalbandian is looking a little heavy. They're 2-2 in the head to head with Ferrero winning the last couple of times. The surface also favors Ferrero, so we'll see. I'll have to follow the scores on line because they won't show matches until 9.
Today was a day of relax, especially after the lack of sleep. The great thing is that I don't have school on Monday, so I'll probably go out and catch a movie or something. This first week was very tiring, even more so with my knee bothering me. Yesterday was horrible! I couldn't go up or down the stairs or even walk without feeling a sharp pain even though I wore a knee-brace all day. So I decided to get home after class so I wouldn't walk on it too much, I put some ice on it and my dad gave me a couple of pain pills, and as a result I feel a lot better today. I haven't been putting any extra-pressure on it just in case, and hopefully next week I'll be all better.
I talked with a few friends yesterday but I dunno I felt weird, like I was just going along but I wasn't really into anything. I get like that sometimes, like I don't relate to anyone. It's hard to feel like you're not connecting with your friends, it's like 'wow I used to talk to this person all the time and we used to get along so well, it was awesome I dunno what happened'. And what happened is that you changed, you probably don't think the same way anymore or your priorities have changed. Like I said before it has even happened to me with my sister. We never used to talk much, but now when we're on the phone we're rarely know what to say to each other anymore. It hits you, when you realize that you just don't have that much in common anymore. You probably don't agree in most of your opinions and you just don't have the same dynamic in your conversations. Sure, some day you might remember something that will connect you again, but odds are it won't happen, and what you're left is another friends who sends you an e-mail for your birthday and that usually wants to talk to you to 'catch up' and tell you random things about what they've been up to. That's when you realize who are the friends that really appreciate you. The friends that will talk to you like no time has passed at all, and that you know think of you constantly. Those that can tell that you have changed but they won't care. They might tell you 'you're being an idiot' but then they'll go right back to talking to you without a second thought. I was thinking about that yesterday and I'm glad to say, I know who those people are in my life and I hope they'll be there for years to come.
