Of Wimby, not Wimpy, and Happy 4th of July!

Hi all,

So I've got some good news, and some bad news, and obviously, I will start with the good news! So if you're into tennis, which I definitely am, you watched the Wimbledon final last night! If it was an epic 4 setter, eventually ending with Novak Djokovic of Serbia winning over Rafael Nadal of Spain. I put my (fake) money on Djoker, and I was right! For a whole 2-3 hours my family and I were glued to the TV watching the match! So far this year, Djokovic has only lost 1, yes ONE, yes UNO matches this year. So congratz Djoker!!!

Now on the downside, one of my very good in-game friends, Morgrim Battlegem, AKA Garrett Dayhand, suffered a horrific injury last night while setting off fireworks last night. A rocket hit the chair next to Morgrim, and he blocked his body with his arm. Morgrim suffered a 3rd degree burn to his upper arm, which means the burn almost went all the way through the skin, muscle, and down to the bone. He spent a night in the ER, so I ask ALL of you My2Cents viewers, please comment below with a few kind words for Morgrim. Please also visit his blog :: theprinceofmyth.blogspot.com :: and comment there for him. All of our best wishes are with Morgrim now. Morgrim tells me he is extremely tired from his injury, but still he goes on and writes a 4th of July post for his blog viewers. So please help a true warrior, Morgrim. Thank you.


Also, happy 4th of July for all you Americans (like me) out there! This special day
celebrates the day our country became free, so be thankful! There are still many countries out there that are not free, so be happy for what you have.

35 Hours of Camp Later......

Hi all

So I got home about an hour ago from tennis camp here in Norway. I started on Monday, and it was great to get playing again after traveling so much. It was cool to meet new friends, learn the game in a different environment, and brush up on my Norwegian. Am I anywhere close to fluent yet? Nei. That means 'no.' Haha. Here's what we did throughout the week.

Monday:: It's raining, but we play through it for 2 hours. I slip on the baseline (stupid line) and get red clay on my behind. We're all soaked and decide to head in for lunch. We eat lunch and play ping pong. My coach tells me we will go on a 'little' run, and we end up running like 3 miles, and doing sprints soaking wet. When we got back to camp, we were all happy to have time to rest, and then my coach told us to do fitness! We did situps, pushups, and some other things. I'm ripped now *flex* well, I like to think that way at least haha.

Tuesday:: Not raining, in fact searing hot, we're all bacon by the end of the day. Played 5+ hours of tennis. Fun!

Wednesday, Thursday:: Same as Tuesday

Friday:: Last day of camp. We play lots of matches in the morning and doubles in the afternoon. Really fun. After tennis, it starts raining, but we play soccer. It was fun cause we were all like killing each other and pushing each other into bushes and stuff. In the last 5 minutes I tried to tackle my coach, but he picked me up, held me in the air, and shot a goal. Oh well.

Well that was pretty much my week, in Wizzy I leveled up gardening (rank 2 YEAH) did pvp, and found the yardbirds! Pretty good week.

The World Cup

The World Cup. The ultimate test of skill and stamina for soccer players around the world. Are you up for the test?

Lol. That was just a little commercial-ly do thingy that I made up while watching USA battle the UK in an epic battle of wills and soccer/football skills. The UK scored early in the game, and US goalie, ________ Howard, was slide-tackled clete first square into his chest. Screaming in pain, the goalie did not think he could continue the game. But after 5 minutes of injury time-out, he thought he was fit and ready enough to continue. This set the US players to a more Defensive style, and had most of their players down by their goal, fending off over 10 goal attempts by British star, Wayne Roone. But the US did not give up. Late in the first half, USA pushed ahead and scored a single goal. It would be their first, and their last. After over 45 minutes of attack, fall back, attack, fall back, by the UK, and defend, move back, defend, move back, the game ended at a draw. That goes to show that even the underdogs, USA, can rise up to the challenge and fend off one of the greatest football/soccer teams in the world. Stay tuned for more updates on the World Cup.
