oh my poor ferrero T_T when is he ever gonna comeback?
Please don't forget me. { I'm going away. }
I'm taking a taxi to Kentucky where they don't even know all about me. I just need to feel s a f e.
I've got a thousand sweaters, and shoes, and paintings to hide the skeletons in my way.
But he said, "Slow down, slow down. Think it over, we've all got wretched closets, but silly girl pride kills more than Aids lately."
I said, "Come on, I thought it over. I don't wanna die here. I have no desire to get m♥rried."
Every night I pray for you, don't believe in heaven or that it could be a happy place.

I really like Hingis and I hope she wins. However, the more I watch her play, the more I doubt her chances to win. In her match against Benesova, a lot of her balls were short, bouncing near the service line. I don't think she can get away with that against the more powerful players like Henin-Hardenne or Davenport. I'm still rooting for her though.
Oh oh oh!
Andy Roddick is out
Nuts =/

^I don't understand it. In that last set it didn't even look like he was trying. Baghdatis hit some awesome shots, but Andy looked totally stuck. He didn't even move his feet.
All my fave players are out now.

i know seriously....the second set and 3/4 set was like watching two completely different andy's.
i guess i'm rooting for nalbandian now. he seems like he's the only player who gives feddy some trouble. but i love feddy too, i just don't want him to win everything. lol

lol yeah agreed. Then there's Kiefer...who seems to play pretty good against Fed. Haha, Kiefer. He's so amusing.
Didn't Santaro make it to the quarterfinals? Gaaaah, I love Santaro.
Except he plays Nalbandian next, so...

That Hingis and Stosur match was really good. I think I'll take back what I originally said about Hingis. The stosur match showed me that Martina can hang with the more competitive players and that she has the mental strength to handle to pressure points.
