nole looked SO HAPPY when he won and it was so endearing!!! :3 :3 and nadal is so lovely :( in terms of everything, but like, especially how modest he is and how quiet in nature he seems. cannot even begin to explain my soft spot for him ugh.

I'M SO NERVOUS FOR THE FINAL i don't think i can even watch

YOU LIKE TENNIS?? NEW INFORMATION compatable July 2 2011, 16:17:10 UTC
omg his reverse jazz hands and his seduction of the grass. i need gifs. LOL I'M THE OPPOSITE. I'M SO PUMPED UP TO WATCH THE FINAL. IT'S GOING TO BE SO TENSE.

ugh i thought nadal's interview was crappy. they kept on asking all these questions about murray, but he had it all under control.

omg IKR. and him getting to the finals is especially great because i feel like commentators (in the us, at least) spent a lot of time hating on him when he was younger for how immature he was and thought he'd peaked earlier BUT HE HASN'T :3 :3 :3 lol i have this thing where i'm convinced that i jinx my fave whenever i watch him/her/them play, so i...don't :(

i didn't see his interview! lol murray played like such a boss during the first set (seriously, his forehands *__*) and then...nothing. why would they even ask about that.

yeah, they made one little comment about his younger self, but it wasn't so bad. but they really hint it a lot. SOBS DON'T FEEL LIKE THAT. YOU'RE A WONDERFUL TENNIS SPIRIT-MUSE OKAY.

idk but i want to give the interviewers a good talking-to. unless it's in the memo to ask douche questions.

checking my friends page in a second and i better see a party post from you. god, it was so...intense. and frightening because nadal won the third set and the announcers were like, OH HE'S GOING TO COME BACK. should not listen to the announcers :| especially mcenroe. how many times did i hear more about him than nadal or djokovic.

FLOPS AROUND PATHETICALLY undamage July 4 2011, 15:08:16 UTC
lol i was going to but then nautisch's was more poignant and so i just commented there :| I WILL MAKE ONE NOW

SOBBING i wanted to mute all the sound so i wouldn't have to listen to the announcers, but sometimes they say useful things. conundrum :| also it's really hard to win 3 sets in a row when you're down 2 (it's been done before, but...) so i kept the faith. trololol yeah nautisch and i were texting each other all panicked like during the game but half our texts were like NOT EVERY GAME IS A PARALLEL TO YOUR CAREER MCENROE PLEASE STOP
