One Down, Many More To Go?


Manchester United Soccer Schools, Singapore
Inaugural Course, December 2008*

sleep was more luxurious than Hermes for the first two weeks of december. with eyes open or closed, my work inbox was all i saw. and as the event drew near, my $48 nokia contractor phone rang annoyingly from 9am onwards daily. i didn't even have much opportunity to re-live my snake gaming days.

anyhow, the worst happened on the first day but we enjoyed a rainless 5 day period thereafter (except for day 3 evening). how miraculous was that?

730am teh tarik, hot & fresh epok-epok from mukmin, ensuring donovan joined his group when he arrives late, football against 10yr olds, sunburn, storeroom woes, ridiculing 'ronaldo', football talk with football crazy parents and the $19 naan set at night safari sums up my muss experience. in short it was pretty kick ass thanks to the people around me.

i recall informing one of my superiors how i wanted to cease any form of involvement after this inaugural course but - it's quite a challenge to let go so much you have built along the way just like that, no?

*DISCLAIMER: THE ABOVE ACTIVITY/INVOLVEMENT DOES NOT IN ANY WAY SUGGEST/IMPLY MY FOOTBALL CLUB AFFILIATION/SUPPORT TO MUFC.
