Fangirl Extraordinaire

Coz Rafa's so goddam cute, like, ALL the time, so he needs his own post.

( RAFAAAA! MADE OF CUTE! )

Whew, that's a lot of pics. Damn you Rafa for being so cute alla time.

Was chatting with pretty_panther a couple of days ago and we started talking about where everyone gets their points. I've kinda wanted to do a post about this for a while, but wasn't sure that anyone else would be interested. So since I now know that at least one other person finds it interesting, here's my random post about the points for everyone in the top 10. It will be long, it will be rambly, I wrote most of it in the early hours of the morning when I couldn't sleep, so I can't guarantee for coherence/ability to type.

( Table of points - including surfaces and tournament types )

( Who wins points at what level tournament? )

Well I think that's all there is to say about the different tournament types.

( Who wins points on what surfaces? )

Ok, I was expecting this post to be long, but I didn't realise quite how much I can ramble about this. I don't think I missed anything, tho knowing me I probably did. If anyone actually managed to get through this post without losing the will to live I will be most impressed XD

...god I'm such a geek. Ah well. TBF, this posting has been in the back of my mind for so long, it just got a bit... overgrown.

In a daft mood, so I'm gonna spam you all with many pics of silly silly wonderful adorable tennis boys.

Includes: Rafa, Roger, Andy R, Marat, Gilles, Armada, and a few more Rafa and Roger pics XD

Lots of pics in here. And I mean LOTS.

( Warning: Silly. Very silly. Much silly )

Uh, I didn't realise I had uploaded quite that many. There's like... 200 pictures there >.<

Why are silly tennis boys so silly and lovely and adorable and pretty?

( MY BOYS ARE BACK! )

Also, Roddick lost before, 6-4 6-4 to Davydenko :\ Which means we get Rafa-Kolya tomorrow. Would've preferred Andy, but ah well. VAMOS RAFA! XD

And, surprise surprise, Murray OWNED Blake 6-2 6-2, so it's Roger-Andy tomorrow. Now I love Andy, and if he's playing anyone but Roger or Rafa I will happily cheer away for him. But if he beats Roger and stops another Fedal match then I will be SO not happy. Come on Roger, you've had a nice rest, it's a new year, let's put 2008 behind and be awesome and win this thing to meet your boyfriend top rival.

I think that no tennis player can truly be great unless they fear tennis balls. There are countless pictures of Roger and Rafa looking at tennis balls like they believe they are about to turn into monsters and eat them. Because of this they will do everything possible to make sure that tiny fuzzy yellow ball goes far far away and doesn't come back. This is why they are great.

( See? That is pure terror )

However, recently, Roger's fear seems to have become slightly uncontrollable. He now believes that merely sending the balls far away is not going to save him, so instead, he flees

( RUN ROGER, IT'S GOING TO KILL YOU! )

However, after some counciling, Roger seems to have faced his fear, and is now ready to embrace the tennis ball as a friend

( see? All good now )


...ok, clearly not enough sleep, too much caffeine and too much staring at horribly dull articles for my dissertation have done weird things to my brain

( Some beautiful Rogi to wipe away the terrifying Djoker memories )

Why is he so awesome? I love how happy and relaxed he's looking there. The past month and a half have been so awesome for him, considering the previous. So glad things are back on track now.

...I don't know either.

Roger, that... that just shouldn't be possible. I mean... what? I've watching it I don't know how many times and I still can't work out how the hell you won that.

Christ, Tsonga had no chance against him playing like that. I think Rafa would have had trouble beating him when he's that on form.

I'm kinda amused by the commentator calling him "world number 1" - I've said it before, but it's kinda weird how the transition from calling Rafa "world number 2" to "world number 1" has been pretty easy, it seemed quite natural. But it still somehow seems wrong calling Roger "world number 2", it just... doesn't fit.

God, I hope they both get to the final, coz the way they're playing at the moment... it would be completely epic.

But first, the quarters. Andy's just started now, then it's Rogi against DelPo (please Rogi, wipe the floor with him), then Rafa and his BFF Feli, and finally Gilles Simon against the abnormally tall one (I'm hoping Simon can win - even if Ivo did take Djokovic out yesterday, I still don't really like him, his game just irritates me). Should be an interesting day. But for now Andy... who just got broken in his first service game D: Errr... then he broke back 15-40 in his first return game XD

( Lookit the hair! )

Lookie how pretty and shiny and curly and bouncy it is! He was NEVER gonna lose the match with his hair looking that good XD
