“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” – Mark Twain

What A Week...

...for sports!

Firstly, yay to David Hayes! The first Brit to win the WBA Heavyweight Title since 2003! Did you see that mammoth guy he was fighting?! He was like a foot taller than him or something and ridiculousy heavier. Proud moment for the British!

Then came a shocker - Robert Enke committed suicide!! I can't believe it! He was such a great goalie - definitely would've been playing in the world cup next year. I haven't heard the whole story about what happened about this - apparently he got hit by a train on Tuesday and left a suicide note for his family. Crazy stuff.

Then another shocker - Roger Federer got knocked out in the second round of the Paris Masters Crown! Poor guy - if Nadal keeps going like he is, I think he's gonna end the year as the world number 1.

And fabulous congrats to Serena Williams - she has won a whopping 28million dollars in prize money - more than any other female athlete. And good for her! She has won every grand slam going at least once, with 11 grand slam titles in total. Crazy, crazy success! Quite an inspirational woman!

And then there's me who couldn't even make it to the gym this morning!
