Never will I

Two things struck me today on my commute to work. 

Why on earth is Russian tennis player Maria Sharapova the only one to speak with such a strong American accent? Even Marat Safin, who is seven years older than her, speaks with a thick Russian accent. I know that most professional tennis players go to college in America, but surely the accent is put on! She sounds ridiculous.

The second thing that hit me today is about a train station. Why is Spencer St station called Southern Cross station? It sounds tacky and lame. Never will I call Spencer St station 'Southern Cross station'.
