    I saw Sharapova

    Although it was just a practice game with another unknown player
    Maria still caught the most attention in the US Open season
    Tall, pretty, and STRONG
    Then I know I would never become a professional tennis player
    There's such a long long way to go ;-P
    Maybe back to another dull professional in Wall Street will be much easier than being at the tennis court, hoho
     
    Pictures will follow up when I am back home
    And more stories and "rumors" to tell after this 10-day trip

    我的美利坚首发

    今天好似要还清所有的文字债
    再罗嗦两句
     
    明天一早出发了
    先到纽约,然后直奔New Jersey叶丽处
    在她那儿骚扰两日,再出发去Big Apple
    承蒙地瓜同学热情招待,辗转几次后终于找到落脚点
    呵呵,打算relaxing点游游纽约,反正离boston也近嘛,今后有的是机会再去
    大都会博物馆准备预留一天,网上看到游记说比大英有过之而无不及(呵呵,鄙人对大英一直持保留意见)
    另外还有几个朋友也要见见面
    周五去华府,恩,Sherman同学太热情了,害得我不去都说不过去了
    周末就在Washington骚扰他们两夫妇了,hoho
    周一回纽约,赶上US Open第一天,看个首轮,也算到此一游了
     
    周二回学校,其实俺已经晚了一天了
    嗨,只要能报上到,其它的都好办
    然后就该是头疼的再搬家,理shipping boxes,考路考,买车...
    看看,人要想settle down还真不容易

    Nvr feel settled down

    Personally I hesitate to read blogs in English
    Thus I feel guilty myself to write MY blog in English
    Okey, back to my beautiful beautiful Sichuanese, jaja
     
    算算,来米国也快一个月了
    照片还真没怎么照
    实在是有点审美疲劳(有感于最近半年的频繁travel)
    不过俺现在逢人便说美利坚的不是
    什么基础设施破旧啦,什么人很rough啦,还有环境其实很脏啦
    好像到头来还真没发现多少优点
    可能是我太肤浅了
    美国虽然仅仅200年的历史,但它的光荣和梦想,恐怕不是从表面就能看出来的
    我每到一个新的地方,总是拿它跟前一个地方的优点比较
    这个是很不对的,作一下自我批评
    难怪有人说我很picky, //blush
    下次吧,下次等我发现多些优点了
    慢慢列举出来,呵呵

    1250 yards, freestyle

    Just cannot believe how many choices I have back to school
    tennis, squash, step-challenge, joga, jogging, swimming...
    and there're more to explore definitely ;-)
     
    Passed a 100-yard swimming test for my rowing & sailing licence the other day
    Today, I was even amazed myself to have swam 1250 yards in FREESTYLE, non-stop!
    It was long long ago when I was still in Tsinghua
    those relaxing early afternoon, walking in the sunshine with dipping wet hair, after an hour swim in that stylish diving hall
    Days were always good in the past; so is my body
    McK almost drained my health away, as well as my sports life
    Pace, breath, postures, and little bit stamina
    Now I made it again
    Next goal, 2000 yards, then 2500 yards, finally breaking through my college record of 2500m (~2780 yards)
     
    btw, I should have corrected a mis-image in my previous blog
    The first day on tennis court was really an outlier
    Actually there're many very good players in the US
    Not exactly agressive, but very stable
    academic postures, swift movement, and experienced in games
    I knew I popped into generalization mistakes again
