Another Epic Wimbledon Final

I watched last year Wimbledon men singles final where roger federer lost to rafael nadal. And this year, he was playing second best to Andy Roddick.. but unfortunately for Andy Roddick.. one mistake.. and roger federer won.. in another epic 5 sets thriller.. 5-7, 7-6, 7-6, 6-3 and 16-14. 

it was really really an incredible game of tennis.. I was rooting for Roger Federer all this while and i felt sad for roddick for he played a magnificient game. he was really unlucky. He should have won the tiebreak on the 2nd set.. but he blew his chances away. I think the 2nd set was the turning point and federer gain momentum from there.. and won it.. of course.. roddick didnt give up though.. he came back in the fourth set and managed to break federer to win 6-3 on the fourth set.. then on the final set. you can see that both were very strong.. physically and mentally. no one wanted to give in.. federer could not even break on roddick's serve and it looks more likely that roddick will win they game. Unfortunately.. towards the 3oth game.. after 4 hr..15mins on court.. Federer finally managed to break roddick. and championship point to roger federer. 

Federer was again delighted.. and now crowned wimbledon champion for the 6th time and become the GREATEST Player EVER in tennis history.. surpassing Pete Sampras record of 14th major... 15th Major for Roger Federer... and hopefully counting =).. when he lost out on last year wimbledon.. more doubt whether he could come back stronger to win another major again.. and then came the US Open... he won against andy murray.. it was his 13th major.. then australian open.. he lost in the final to nadal.. but still he came back to win the French Open, finally won the only grandslam he have not won before.. so there was it.. his 14th Grandslam.. and now, of course.. winning the Wimbledon 2009 to take his tally to 15th Grandslam and thus becoming THE greatest tennis player of all time. What a magnificent athlete he is.. Congratulations, Roger Federer..

and to Andy Roddick. i really do feel sorry for him.. He was really the better player today.. but luck was not on his side... he lost it.. but i think he would come back stronger and hopefully try to win another grandslam again. All the Best.

so there you go.. my 2 weeks of glu-ing myself in front of the TV watching Wimbledon..and of course.. due to the time different.. i have to stay up till wee morning watching it.. but it was good nonetheless... =)

on another note, i actually did attend a job interview.. i went for the 2nd intw with the MD.. but sadly i did not go well prepared.. it was my fault.. (i went with the mentality.. if i didnt get the job.. never mind.. i just am going for fun and experience).. and of course.. it back-fired on me.. i was low on confidence, nervous and everything negative.. i should have done better. i am at fault cause i think i would have gotten the job had i did research on the theory side.. sigh.. sigh.. but i shall learnt from this and improved myself.. i really regretted it.. and wat the MD said.. is still very very fresh in my mind.. sigh.. 

again now.. i really really dunno what i want in life.. all this while.. i though i knew what i want.. but now.. i am in dilemma again.. and not knowing where i would go from here.. sigh..  i have to come back stronger and job hunt again. =)
