Countdown

The first is always the best, and every other time is worse than the last.Being first and last, welcome to the world where you'd better off being nothing..

You step on court,you're a hundred percent focused.You play your game,ignoring anything that happens outside the court.You don't want any distractions,and get annoyed when it happens.You're losing,but you don't lose your cool.A calm mind is needed at times like these.Even so, you still lose.At any moment when you step out of the court, during or after the match, you will lose your concentration.The adrenaline rush is gone, so has the edge, and you lose focus.Game, set, match to your opponent.

That's what happened yesterday. I know that I could have won, but I opted for the toilet break at 2-3 down on serve (when I gotta go,I gotta go...).All of a sudden,I stepped back on court, and 3 double faults came....

Too bad,I made my choice, but that's how it is. Tennis is as complex as any other sport.Each has their own opinions.I chose mine, and I don't think it's a wrong one.Besides, it's not like it's right or wrong,it's simply our own choices.Don't like it, then get used to it,don't argue that yours is correct(unless you're a radical pragmatist...)

*sigh*Slept for like 14 hours from 5pm-7am without getting dinner.Dad's coming back today, looks like I'm gonna have to get through another bad week.What a nice Christmas mood indeed....
