Saturday, September 12, 2009 Rain forces us to play the waiting game Hello everyone and sorry I didn't post yesterday. We got back to the hotel at 12.30 midnight after being practically all day at the tournament site. I had to eat dinner very fast and went to sleep immediately since I had to get up early today hoping we would play. As you know we didn't so we spent practically all day at the tennis center doing... nothing. Just waiting for the weather to clear and waiting and waiting and waiting to go out and play. 大家好，很抱歉我昨天沒PO文。我們在賽場待了一整天，到午夜12:30才回到旅館。我必須很快的吃完晚餐然後馬上上床睡覺，因為我今天得早起希望可以打到球。如同你們所知的，我們並沒打到，所以實際上我們花了一整天的時間在賽場....無所是事。只能等天氣轉晴，然後就是等待，等待，再等待。 They tournament organizers and the ATP reps told us when we got to the stadium that there would be a window at 1 or 2 pm and that we could go out and play to finish our match... That window was never open :-)Someone forgot to do it... So we waited and waited. 剛到賽場時主辦單位和ATP代表告訴我們大約在下午一點或兩點時會有出個空隙讓我們完成比賽...但那個空隙從沒出現過:-)可能是有人忘了打開...所以我們等了又等。 (註:此處"空隙"原文用的是window，所以才會說忘了打開，下一段也有用到這個雙關) These days with rain are tough. You are there doing nothing... Specially at the beginning. Everything was scheduled to practice and go to play but since it kept raining really hard, we simply decided to go upstairs to the players lounge and play some foosball. We had some good time while keeping an eye on the windows, not those ones announced by the weather forecast... 雨停的日子很難熬，你沒事可以做...尤其是在一開始。原本排定好要練習然後上場比賽，但因為雨下不停，我們決定到樓上的休息室打足球電玩。我們看著窗戶(不是雨停的窗戶喔...)的同時渡過一段不錯的時光。 We also went to the IMG suite at the stadium and spent some time there. Just to change airs (is this proper English?-sorry if not, I hope you know what I mean). 我們也到賽場裡的IMG套房待了些時間，好換個氣氛(這是對的英文說法嗎? 如果不是我很抱歉，希望你們知道我的意思。) (註: 我也不確定我有沒有懂= =) So tomorrow we will try to finish the match and one thing is certain... Whoever wins would have to play 3 consecutive matches in 3 consecutive days in the case Fernando or me reaches the final. Not ideal but nothing we can do about it. 所以明天我們會試著完成比賽，有一件事是確定的，不論是我或是Fernando贏都得連打三天，不是很理想但我們也無計可施。 -- ╭──────╥────────────────╥────────────╮ │██████║ ┌╮ ─╮ ╭ ─╮ ╭╮ ╭ ╭╮ ─╮ ╭ ─╮ ╭ │ │█Ψ████║ ╞╯ ╭┤ ┼ ╭┤ ├╯ │ Ψ ││ ╭┤ ╭┤ ╭┤ │ │ │██████║ ┘╰ ╰└ ┘ ╰└ ╰┘ ┘ ┘┘ ╰└ ╰└ ╰└ ┘ │ └────────────────────────────────────┘ -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 140.117.189.60
