Big things this last week!


First and foremost. CONGRATULATIONS ROGER FEDERER!!! Today, Roger won his first French Open, completing the career grand slam. Also, it was his 14th major tying him with Pete Sampras of all time. It is hard to argue against him being the greatest player of all time. That is the scene of him after the final shot. I am so happy for Roger after all the trouble he had last year. Wimbledon is next and if he can win that not only will he have his 15th major but will probably be ranked #1 in the world again. Which would make me quite happy. Speaking of my own tennis, I took a set off John last night on the Clay. I think i have won a total of 6 sets now. Not much but its progress. Also, Congrats to Tiger Woods who came back from 4 shots down to win the memorial tournament, the final warmup before the US open.

I bought a Toshiba Satellite A305-S6916 Special Edition laptop this week too. My old one finally died and Im tired of messing with it. This thing is fully loaded and was on sale from best buy so I got a good deal. Its nice to have a new cpu. I saw changeling last night at caroline's house, what a great movie; angeline jolie was superb. My friend Matt got into USC and is driving down right now to come stay with me for a few nights. We are going to check out the campus and UCLA too which will be cool because I have never been to either campus.

One more week of school and then finals. Here is the to-do list:

PSCI 540: Final presentation (paper is done just needs to be edited: both due June 10)

Hist 600: Final paper and presentation (due June 19)

Econ 500: Final draft of paper and Final (Paper is due June 10th I think and final next week sometime)

Hopefully I can pull off 2 a's and an a-. I have an A and 2 a-'s right now. The potential to get all A's is there but I would have to get nearly 100% in econ on the last 2 assignments. I can deal with a 3.9.

Dad is buying a new couch today and maybe a new laptop for himself. Good for him. Still waiting to hear on whether I am going to Hawaii or not. Anyways take care and talk to you soon.
