How To Not Freak Out Tomorrow
First thread, gonna be such a fail. 
OK, I know we're all gonna be super anxious tomorrow. especially as waiting a full day will seem agonising after back to back QF and SF. If you all are anything like me, then I'm sure you sometimes genuinely feel like fainting during Masha matches. So to make this wait a 'lil less nerve-wracking I've put together a list of suggestions to distract us.
*Play PS3/XBOX 360. Preferably a game like Skyrim where you can be absorbed for hours on end.
*Read a book, preferably a good one, so your mind won't wander.
*Watch a film, on TV not computer. You will end up here which will make you worse. Or even worse, you'll end up watching Miami final highlights
*Pack out your schedule, I mean really pack it out. Visit your gran/ other distant relative. Phone all those people you've been meaning to and talk for as long as possible.
Then in the few hours before the match, we come here, get all our worries/ dramatics/ excitement somewhat out of the system. Then we get ready to support Masha to the last ball.
*More suggestions welcome.*

Re: How To Not Freak Out Tomorrow
I was so nervous yesterday I don't know how I'm gonna handle the final without freaking out.
To make it worse the final is at 3am for me so I'm probably gonna be to anxious to sleep before hand.
For me, reading helps the most.

That was me for SF, but I was so exhausted from QF I managed to sleep. The final isn't until 8.00AM with me so I should manage to eventually fall asleep tomorrow night.

Re: How To Not Freak Out Tomorrow
great suggestion 
i was actually switching 'watching youtube' and 'watching her match' back and forth last night when she was almost broken in the 3rd set a lot of times. thought it would kind of put your stress away and lead you to focus on another thing, but it didn't work so well
and i don't think it'd work either when u do one of those things in ur list before the match. u'd freak out nevertheless once the match begins  but i think it depends of yourself: if u r an emotional dramatic superstitious person like me, things will always go this way

Re: How To Not Freak Out Tomorrow
I can't go out if I want so watch the match or at least not get drunk.
I will freak out, I mean winner gets all! The slam and N 1!
It's been such a long and hard road back to the top and it's so so close.
I know I should calm down because if she looses I will be devastated...

Re: How To Not Freak Out Tomorrow
I am so nervous as well, I can't stop thinking about it 
The final for me is tomorrow at 9.30 am so it wont be a problem
She has fought so hard and been through so much, she deserves this more than anyone!
I don't know what I will do if she loses

Re: How To Not Freak Out Tomorrow
Gonna go to the beach. But then when I get home my living room will be an inpenatrable fortress. Everyone has been told they aren't allowed to have people over so I can rage freely.
