Punzi's Corner Blog: First Day of School/Choke Artist

This day in history from:

First Day of School/Choke Artist

It's Bea's first day of school and taking her there was not too much trouble, unlike the past years.

I think she already has a set of friends that made letting her go there easier.

But, she has shortened periods for this week and my sister cannot fetch her so it's up to me to do it. Good thing the old schedule is a little loose this week and the agenda consists mostly of paperwork.

x----------------x

Anyway, I was watching the Sharapova vs. Safina match last night and it was the first time I saw Sharapova in action. And I was shocked that she was such a choke artist and fast becoming only a pretty face like her compatriot, Anna Kournikova.

OMG! She missed two serve outs for the win @ 5-2 and @ 5-4 and then Safina pounced to win the set and the match @ 7-5, 2-6 and 7-5.

And I thought she was more than just a pretty face. But then she choked on a lesser ranked player. Disappointing. I'll probably not watch her play again. But of course, I will not tire watch her doing other things... oogle...

Perhaps you just chanced on Maria playing on not her very best. She came from an injury and had not played in a tournament sice April; also clay is the least of her preferred playing surface. Comparing her to Anna is inaccurate; she's way far from her.
Watch her more and you'll see what I mean.
Just a little bit of input.
Thanks.

You're right. I may be too hard on her. She deserves another chance...

So I'll see her in... Wimbledon?

thanks for sharing law informations & tidbits on everything that could be seen & unsees site..very informative, vast source of 'common' law for common people like me.

kournikouva is much beauty compare to sharapova...but sharapova is better when it comes to playing tennis! she's the poster girl of tennis for the year 2004 for winning the wibledon that year..

Side Prayers

PRAYER FOR GENEROSITY
Lord Jesus,
Teach me to be generous,
Teach me to serve You as You deserve
To give and not to count the cost,
To fight and not to heed the wounds,
To toil and not to seek for rest,
To labor and not to ask for reward,
except that of knowing
That I do Your Holy Will. Amen

THE LAWYER'S PRAYER
May every word I speak be from Your Truth...
I ask come from Your Wisdom...
May every case I handle receive Your Guidance...
May every heart, every life I touch, feel Your Love.

THE JABEZ PRAYER
And Jabez called on the God of Israel saying,
"Oh, that You would bless me indeed,
and enlarge my territory,
that Your Hand be with me,
that You would keep me from evil,
that I may not cause pain."

So God granted him what he requested.
