Day 11

So another week has flown by ... sigh. It is incredible and a lil scary how you never seem to know where the days go. Anyway, just picking up from my last entry, it was a historic weekend (last week) with Li Na winning the French Open. I'm not sure how quickly this will get everyone excited about tennis in China but I'm pretty sure we'll be seeing a lot more asian players on the circuit in the near future. And it was a real pity Fed couldn't cap off what was a brilliant run at Roland Garros with a win over the (at times) seemingly superhuman Nadal. I think it was the closest Fed ever got to testing Nadal at the French and we can only imagine what could have happened if Fed had won the first set ... well, here's looking forward to the green green grass of Wimbledon.

On to the music, once again, to make up for being lazy the whole week, I've force fed the lil ripper with a small bumper load of 38 CDs. This is a breakdown of the latest upload:

Gomez, Mew, The Legends, The Radio Dept, Blonde Redhead, Cut Copy, Primal Scream all deserve a paragraph (or more) each and it's gonna take me all night to get thru all of them. It's 1:36 am so my bed is beckoning ... yawn
