Hey everyone. You might think this blog is about moving up the ranks in a video game or something, well, it's not. As I mentioned once before in an earlier blog, one of my life-long dreams is to become a professional tennis player. Well, I somehow doubt that will happen at all. But, there's no harm in trying, eh?

And because of this, I've decided to try and play tennis more and more often, whenever I can, so that I can get as great at the sport as possible. I just got home from playing with a few of my friends at the local racquet club, and soon we'll be heading over to the town courts to hit some more. I want to get as good as possible so that come Spring 10', when tennis season at my school starts, I can get a good spot on the team.

When I was at the U.S Open a couple weeks ago, and I saw the tennis court surrounded by hundreds of thousands of people, I had a realization. This realization was that I really, really want to play at that court. I can't remember the name of the stadium which I was at, but gosh darnit I want to play tennis there someday so badly. I know many people don't make it to professional, because it's really tough, but I want to try; I just gotta try. The loser who tried their best is better than the person who didn't try at all. Wish me luck, fellas. It's going to be a difficult road to take, but I'm willing to work for it. Of course, it'll still be a while before anything huge happens... But this is just the beginning. The beginning of a beautiful career... Well, hopefully. Thanks for reading, everyone.

Peace, -Matt
