It's physically one of the most difficult times of the season, because you have to work on movements that are specific to clay and require a lot of strength in the legs. 我已经从硬地顺利转换到土场啦。那是赛季中身体上最困难的时候，因为你必须 针对土场的移动做努力，而那需要腿部的强度。 I'm happy with how it's gone and I'm continuing to enjoy working with Craig. He will be present during the Fed Cup tie against Spain in two weeks, by the way. I'm sure it's going to be a great event and it's a wonderful opportunity for us to win promotion to the main World Group, to give ourselves a chance of winning the trophy next year. 对於一切进展我很开心，并且很享受和Craig一起工作。他会在两周後和西班牙对 战的Fed Cup比赛出现。我确信那会是很棒的赛事，而那对我们是赢得升级到世界 组的梦幻机会，给我们自己明年有赢得奖盃的机会。 According to the rankings we are favourites because of Jelena and I, but it's never easy to play away from home - in fact, we don't have much experience of it - and of course it was Spain who chose the surface. 根据排名，因为JJ和我所以我们是被看好的，但是离开主场打球总是不简单 - 实 际上，我们也没有很多经验 - 当然那是西班牙选的场地。 (一个法网冠军 一个上礼拜才拿冠军 有差吗？) At the same time, I am happy to be playing on clay. Last year we played on hard courts in Croatia at this time, which didn't help in the preparation for the clay court season. 同时，我很高兴在土场比赛。去年此时我们在克罗埃西亚打硬地比赛，那对红土赛 季准备没什麽帮助。 Serbians celebrate Easter this weekend. We have an interesting tradition: I know that in many countries people give each other chocolate eggs, but in Serbia it is traditional to cook real eggs on the Friday, decorate them and then exchange them on the Sunday. 这周末塞尔维亚庆祝复活节。我们有个有趣的传统：我知道在很多国家人们会送彼 此巧克力蛋，但是在塞尔维亚传统是在礼拜五煮真的蛋，装饰它们并且在礼拜天交 换。 We decorate the eggs using different colourings and other attachments. I like to dye the eggs red. On the Sunday it is traditional to have a competition to find out who made the strongest eggs. We all take it in turns to hit them against each other's eggs as hard as we can and see whose egg is left at the end. 我们只用不同染料和附着品来装饰蛋。我喜欢把蛋染成红色的。在礼拜天传统是比 赛看谁做了最强壮的蛋。我们会依次把蛋使尽力气两两用力相撞，然後看谁的蛋最 後可以存活。 There is also the tradition of keeping one red egg until the following year: this is known as the "housekeeper" egg. Of course, they are hard-boiled and so it is okay to keep them for a whole year, as long as you don't break the shell! It is supposed to bring luck to your family. 还有个传统是留个红蛋到下一年：这被撑为 "管家" 蛋。当然，他们是煮得很老的 所以留他们整年没问题，只要你不打破蛋壳! 那被认为会替家族带来幸运。 I have fond memories and spending time with my grandparents at Easter when I was a kid, and it's nice that we keep this tradition with the eggs. 我回忆起以前当我还是小孩和祖父母一起过复活节的时候，而我们保留这些蛋的传 统是很好的。 Love Ana -- 小点的日记摆两天都没人理耶........... --
