Finally

After years, what everyone has anticipated happened: Roger Federer breaks the slam record with an epic win over Andy Roddick 5-7, 7-6(8), 7-6(7), 3-6, 16-14. I’ve always dreamed for this day to come, and now it finally has.

Congratulations Roger, you’re unbelievable.

FEDERER

David Foster Wallace once remarked that watching Federer is like “a religious experience.” I used to laugh at this blatantly fanboying hyperbole, but now, I’m beginning to see it.

For the first time ever, my jaws were hanging open full three minutes after the match, in sheer awe. This is Roger: not at his best, but still absolutely decimating his opponents with sound tactics and stronger-than-ever mentality, to make his way to his unthinkable 21st grand slam semi-final in a row, with beauty and subtlety never before seen in the game.

Ultimate (fictional) Crushes

Last time I talked about my idols, which ended-up listing two quite surprising people. Now, allow me move on to something more interesting: who, among all those “omg he’s cute” “mine, mine!” and “i love him”, will rank head and shoulders above all?

After some serious soul searching (along with suspiciously giddy grins), I finally found my answers. I so want to marry the following people:

Another anniversary

“Hi, thanks for coming,”
He extends his hand.

“It’s so nice to meet you!”
As I did mine.

Our hands touched,
up, down, up, down,
they shook…

So that’s how it went,
and more,

Roger Federer,
it certainly was a pleasure.

To the concert that has,
could have,
but never been,

and of the unused ticket still lying around…
