Based on these 3 weeks, I feel 100% sure that I made the right decision, to come to London and pursue this career. Football aside, life in London has been perfect. I enjoy every second spent with my family, be it sitting on the couch chatting with my grandparents or looking after my cousin of a evening. I have also found a great church – Hillsong London. I visited for the first time last week and it was incredible! I can’t wait to go back this Sunday.
The other members of Arsenal’s Gap Year Program (fellow ‘gappers’) are great as well. They like to give me some stick now and then for my accent, but its all in the name of banter. Great times.
What else? Ah, I saw Arsenal play for the first time this week. It was a good match and a great time. Touring stadiums is good and all, but theres nothing that compares to seeing a match, stadium packed with thousands of fans. I can’t wait to see them play again.
So into the schools next week, the real test begins. I have to improve my coaching skills so I can spend some time abroad with Arsenal in January (fingers crossed, in Australia).
Until next time, cheers!
wow...those are really high seats! good to see that you haven't regretted your decision to do the program in anyway :)
