Federer wins!

I have been a die-hard Federer fan ever since Pete Sampras retired. So much that my sister almost hated him - I hero-worshipped him. So the last few months were heaartwrenching - to see him lose again and again against Nadal. I admit that Nadal is an excellent player, and that it is the best player who usually wins the game (and the tournament), but even imagining someone else being No.1 was so much difficult for me, that I couldn't bear it when it really happened. Only two other sportspersons have I admired to this extent - one, obviously is Pete Sampras and the other Michael Schumacher. I hated it when they lost and hate it now when Federer loses.

So it was really a great news when I came to know that Federer won against Murray to claim the U.S. Open. Now, he just has to get one more to get a World record in his name! Wonder how quickly the records are getting broken. This world is really going too fast.

That takes me to the experiment at CERN. I guess we will keep our fingers crossed. Who knows what might happen tomorrow? There are three distinct possibilities:

1. They will find the Higgs boson. Stephen Hawking will lose his hundred dollars. Wish I could place a bet with someone too. (But since my piggy bank is empty, this wish will not be fulfilled)

2. They don't find the Higgs boson : I will pity the students of Physics. They will have a new set of theories to mug up. For senior scientists and researchers, a new gold mine of Nobel prizes!

3.( My sis seriously prays this happens; she does not want to complete the assignments her teachers have given her for the vacation) Strangelets appear and gobble up the globe. Sis wouldn't have to complete her homework.

Well, I guess we will have to wait for the results of the experiment.
