The Nadal-Djokovic Rivalry

               It was a five setter, an epic tennis match in which both men trying their best to outwit, outlast and outplayed their opponent. A grand slam tennis match between Nadal and Djokovic doesn’t disappoint all tennis fans. A battle not just only of skills; it is also a physical and mental battle that pushes both guys to the limit.

Eventually, Nadal came on top this time beating Djokovic 6-4, 3-6, 6-1, 6-7, 9-7 in 4 hours and 37 minutes.                When the match was unfolding, I have a sudden thought that the process of the match developed almost identical as the final of the 2012 Australia Open. Djokovic won that match 5-7, 6-4, 6-2, 6-7, 7-5 in 5 hours 53 minutes. At that time, Djokovic was serving for the match in the 4th set only to get broken by Nadal and eventually losing the tiebreak.

Did you equip yourself with the knowledge required? Are you able to master the skills of communicating well in any language? What are the other skills you obtained outside of the classroom?                These are the parts and pieces that make you who you are right now. Sadly, the current Malaysia education system that is in placed doesn’t really answer all these questions well. When I mentioned the term “education system”, I’m not just referring to those who are the master minds behind the education curriculum; I’m referring to e
