after the withdrawal of Justine, Lindsay and Tim, (which half spolied my Australian Open 2007 experience), i'm glad the other 3 have made it through to the second round.
Nalbandian 6-7(5) 4-6 7-6(2) 6-0 2-1 Ret. over Tipsarevic.
Dementieva 6-1 6-2 over Foretz.
Johansson 6-4 3-6 1-6 6-4 6-2 over Chiudinelli.
no more interesting matches for me to watch now, so I'll be heading over to school. haha. think some people don't want to see me there, so I shall keep a low profile. haha.
submitting thesis for yongquan today. you know. when people recognise you by mentioning you to someone, by explicitly thanking you, by including you in the acknowledgements, it feels good because you know you've made a difference in someone's life. it spurs you on to do better things. some people think that it's pointless to yearn for praises from others. but i think, life is about making yourself and others happy, and no matter how one can try to deny it, it feel really good to hear someone praise you.
i'm honoured to have been included in the acknowledgement sections of the theses (plural of thesis) of 2 friends: yongquan and wanmei. haha. after reading it, i feel glad that i've been a good friend to them and have made a positive impact on their lives. i'm happy they made it through part of life's journey, with me beside them.
ok short post today, will post more tomorrow when francis gives me the photos. haha. slow coach. haha. in the meantime, take care folks!
