Sports and Study
Yesterday was my first day back at school since the summer break and now I’m closing in on end of my school years at Seiritsu. I’ve just come back from the last “Japanese high school summer” I will ever experience and it was again an unforgettable one. Training under the forty degree sun was life threatening but I somehow managed to get over it. The soccer team has built me into a mind and body of steel and into a fighting machine so I am sure I will be strong enough to overcome anything that comes in the future. This summer however was a little different than the others.
On top of soccer I had to prepare for my university studies. This was good in a way because when I couldn’t concentrate anymore with my studies I could switch to soccer and visa versa. University is going to be difficult to get into but if I don’t get in, I will probably to go back to New Zealand. Anyways, I have to go back to my studies now so ill talk to you later!! Wish me luck!!
