Met this guy who lives in my hall named matt. Cant quite remember what his last name is... but... was having a dinner discussion with him only to find out that he is in 3rd year doing econs and finance. This was rather weird as usually you can only live in halls during 1st year, and he said he was here for the past 2 years as well. So i asked him how come.. and he said he was under sports scholarship... for tennis, and my friend next to me told me then that he was ranked 27th in UK. Amazing stuff...

Have to say, quite amazing stuff, as he is only 20 years old. Who knows, maybe he will be the next tim henman or something(nothing to be proud off really) but still, who knows right.. so i went on asking him about his routines and stuff... apparently his daily routines involves:

-eating loads and loads, healthy food though
-tennis training of around 3 to 5 hours a day
-run 10 kilometers!!*not included in the 3 to 5 hour training*
-run 10 kilometers....TWICE during weekends
-gym etc...

Crazy shit man, im pretty sure he has more stuff here and there but thats what i can remember.. but just that itself is scary and crazy.

Not only that, he is also one of the top students in his year.. wth man! amazing though, with all this going for him, he is not arrogant whatsoever, really nice guy.

What i find rather crazy is when i asked him, why study? why not just play tennis and you can earn more money there. And this is what he said...

Well, after i graduate im gonna take some time off to work on my game and see where i go. Might just be lucky and do well but if i dont... at least i have a good degree to get a job.

Now thats what i called hardwork man. I find all this athletes quite inspirational. How they try so damn hard while knowing the fact that they might now make it.. and have to juggle 2 lives(sorta) at the same time...

amazing stuff...
