ZOOROPAZOO

We are a bit exciting to countdown XJ’s birthday celebration. Well, we planned an earlier celebration with my family on this Saturday which is TOMORROW! And we both gonna off on the actual date which is next Friday, we’ll bring XJ out and spend one whole day with him. So check it out next week ok? Oh yeah we had dinner with hubby’s family last Saturday. So that’s what I called it celebration back-2-back. I guess 1st birthday will be something special to the kid, don’t you think so?…

When I looked at him during his routine, he has grown up quite a lot! really… Not just physically but his understanding. Love to see him curious towards everything (dig my nose & ear is his current fav ,eating with great appetite, greeting us with sweet smiling in the morning, babbling with lotsa saliva… list goes on. Only one thing I don’t like to see which is XJ doesn’t sleep much. Tell you, he will get up in the early morning sometimes like 3am and want us to play with him!!! My mom and my colls told me that baby hardly put on weight if lack of sleep while adults who always sleep late may get “heaty” & some people even need hemorrhoid treatments for the piles developed seriously. I guess they’re right but it doesn’t matter so long as my little monster still a bouncy + bubbly little guy everyday!

p/s: No more FedEx! Rafa defeated Soderling & Murray, sailing into Final. 

I’m more interested to check the final match of Rome Master between Rafa & David Ferrer than read further information on acnepril because it’s great to see Rafa won in this clay event. Hopefully winning both Monte Carlo Master & Rome Master is sufficiently for Rafa to prepare himself to shine again in the French Open real soon! Once again I do hope the final match will be Rafa and Djokovic because only both of them willing to display the most challenging skills in all aspects, no jokes… that’s very exciting whenever both of them meet in the match. So we’ll see who will gonna in for the final and who will lift the title in this clay court.

Well, it’s great because of:-

1) Rafa won the Monte Carlo Masters (clay court) against his Spaniard buddy Verdasco. I didn’t get the chance to watch the match live. I didn’t check whether there’s repeat later but looking at the result 6-0, 6-1, it must be surely either Rafa was too strong to play with or Verdasco was injured?… Either way, it’s just GREAT to see Rafa lift the title again 6 years consecutively! I hope the same momentum still running in him for The French Open soon and prove to us you’re still the King of Clay

2) Jenson Button was in 1st place in Shanghai Grand Prix. He is a talented driver but I don’t know the reason why those better team directors didn’t get him into the team until Ross Brown wanted him for his Brown GP and McLaren now. I hope he can do well this year too. Just a footnote: no Vettel on podium is Great!

I’m very proud of Clijsters in winning the Sony Ericsson title in Miami earlier in winning Justine (semifinal) and Venus (final). She is really great because she is still strong like before I mean before she gave birth to her little cutie Jada or even stronger! It’s quite difficult for a woman to get back those fitness and stamina… Lindsey Davenport was failed in the arena of tennis after gave birth to his baby son and she looks like already quit now! Meanwhile I hope Rafa can shine in the final of Monte Carlo Masters and I hope he is still the King of Clay today… I thought he will be facing Djokovic but nope he will play with his countryman Verdasco who is a real challenger sometime. So we’ll see how’s the match… As for F1, I spend less time on it but hubby still the mania. M. Schumarcher looks not as strong as before and his car is not as powerful compare to others so I think it’s kinda difficult for him! Button, Massa, Nico Rosberg are the drivers I love to see. Anyway, I can’t predict the result in Shanghai but I don’t really like seeing Red Bull team esp Vettel…

yes, that’s true but not for FedEx’s fans! It’s very boring to see him lift up the trophy again, again & again… It’s ok if he/she is excellent player but I can’t see any great in him all the while. I’m saying this not ‘coz I’m Rafa’s fan. I love seeing other players too like Djokovic & Gonzales since they both are very skillful while Rafa is an all-rounder. But whenever these men playing with FedEx, I can expect the result (except Rafa now can’t really play a good game due to his forever knee injuries). What I mean is they seems like NO REAL game whenever involves FedEx, other gentlemen must give way to this guy. I’m wondering you see it too… but never mind sports is business now!

I was totally unaware that the Australian Open is already started! Why I’m so blur this time… Haven’t check the draw yet but people told me Rafa will gonna be easier this time, I hope it’s really easier for him to sail through. I read that FedEx was not playing so well the other day. Anyway, it’s always like that, the top 3 can’t play well in the beginning but will show their true colors in the later stage!

Ok Rafa sailed into the semi tomorrow and meet with his countryman Lopez. Honestly, Rafa’s games wasn’t very great when playing with Ljubicic. It’s not that Ljubicic playing better games but it’s still something substantial lacking from Rafa! Perhaps his movements is not fast enough?… I don’t know… My ideal final would be Rafa playing with Djokovic

… and since Rose has asked me  earlier whether or not I have started my workout. Yeah I have started it when XJ is 3 months 2 days so that’s about one week ago. I started it slowly. I just walked up and down the slope. I managed to go for seven rounds as what I can do before pregnant. So I’m satisfied with myself but it’s just a bit slower than before. I won’t rush myself and think of starting kickboxing next month. Surely it’s very exhausting after so many months never get myself to do those powerful kicking & punching…

Note: Sorry guys, I have something “on” this weekend so no blog-hopping to most of your blogs, will back to normal next week!

Arrrg… Rafa is sent out again… he seems difficult to make to the final lately. Is he still haunted by his knee injuries and the stomach problem?… Anyway, I guess there must be something done for it because it very much affects his games. I missed his volleys, big forehands, ground strokes… in those days. Rafa, don’t waste your skill… Me and my hubby is always looking forward to the good play from you! When will you shine again?

Rafa has his new haircut and it looks refreshing and clean. I used to say that every sportsman should have a clean haircut for the convenience in playing in the games. Actually that’s not “new” hairstyle” for Rafa as he had this one before but only he prefer to keep his hair longer which becomes his trademark. OK, it’s a good start for Rafa in beating Gasquet in straight set. I’m looking forward more of these kind of play (from Rafa) to come. For the women players, it’s such a disappointment to see Ivanovic out at first round (she was former #1 ok?…) and Mauresmo has no longer as powerful as before as she is ousted too by a very young but quite talented player.

I’ve “sacrificed” most of the on-going tennis matches after I delivered Baby XJ because my “free time” was fully occupied 90% for my precious while 10% for my blog. Thus I’m so sorry for not visiting some of your blogs!

Anyway, the final Grand Slam of the year~US Open is just started and I want to taste the “excitement, frustration, happiness…” again. If you’re a tennis fan then you’ll understand what I mean I guess. I missed seeing my #1 idol, Rafa to shine again in the court. I hope he can show his performance as he claimed that he is absolutely fit from his long-time knee injury. Besides, it’s quite interesting to have Kim Clijsters play this time as stopped playing for some time after delivered her baby girl. Clijsters is once my favorite player and we’ll see whether or not the “mama-power” let her sail through the matches!

Looking at the draw, it seems like the more “threatening” players are relatively more on FedEx group except that Murray is same group with Rafa. Anyway, FedEx newly upgraded to become father to his twin girls look “unbeatable” too. There are a lot to find out in the matches to see who can lift this title! So bear with me if I do not blog hop to your place around this 2-week time, sure I’ll be back! Ciao!
