[quote=juanqui.ferrero] Besides, everybody's talking about him, but hey ! They are other spanish guys that are doing well !![quote]

exactly! i mean, when i was at RG, Rafa trained with Juan Carlos Fererro. i didnt see too much at the gate of the court so i asked the girls "Who's training?" They said Nadal. i asked "with who?" and they didnt interest in the other guy, although it was Fererro. Only me and another two girls took pics of him. everybody wanted Nadal. and on the other day the same happened when he practised with Feliciano Lopez. Nobody wanted to see Lopez they wanted only Nadal.

but i think it was an extreme situation, but it shocks...

It doens't matter. and u can learn

U speak the two most important languages in the world.

when i was young, i would do anything for being someone whose native language is one of the two.

when i met him at RG, my feelings for him, ( i really didnt like him) turned round. i had to realize, that although i dont like his style, he took a lot of work in playing tennis. and i respect it.

Yes - a couple of times - it is very beautful. I really love all the eastern European cities - like Budapest, Krakow and Prague - and also Vienna. My Mother was from Minsk (Belarus) so I think I have a kind of affinity with Russia and eastern parts of Europe - even though I was born in boring London.

As for languages - well my French is OK because we start to learn that in schools here from when we are 6 or 7 years old, and I learnt Belarussian from my Mum - but English people generally are not so good at other languages

I always feel ashamed when I go abroad and English people make no attempt to speak in others' languages - they just shout louder in Englsh

Thankfully, I graduated from uni last year... woohoo! Don't miss it at all

I am still studying though, but it's one of those correspondence studies and I can do exams whenever I want to. Though it's about time I did the first one... I'm sooooo behind!
