Champions League

Forgive me for saying this, but Fanteni could have made the biggest gamble in his career by choosing to come back to South Africa, if it pays off all the better for him, if not.....what a COCK UP he has made. His club have made it to the Group Stages of the biggest club competition in the world, and yet he is struggling to command a starting place at Orlando Pirates. Mabhakaniya, ndiyanithanda, kodwa.....I would rather play UEFA Champs Leauge football if I had the opportunity. Look now....Masilela is gonna be playin, and should he shine, that will increase his fan-base in Europe, as well as raise his value for prospective buyers in the BIGGER leagues. Macbeth Sibaya as well, is gonna be playin Champions League football, at such an important stage in any South African footballer's career, what better place to showcase yur talents to the coach and other scouts than that. If Fanteni wins the Manyathela Award at the end of the season, kudos to him, otherwise if he flops in SA...woaw unto him for coming bacj home when he had a chance at a crack @ the world's best @ the best level club-wise. But ke.....he has made his bed, and for his sake, let's hope it's a comfy one

How it's been

Well......8 months dow the line(BAD I know) and how's Jozi thus far? I'm still alive I guess for one. I have met some of the most interesting people in this time. On the books side, not too shabby either. I scored my first varsity distinction in June(YAY!!!!) and I have to give props to UJ APK.......ababahle oosisi yeha!!!!!!! Unfortunately, I don't have 1 to call my own as yet. The social scene.....I've cut it down a huge bit from my Gtown days, but I must say, 7th aint half bad.

I also love the fact that I've got family with me(luv u cuz) and nearby. It sucks being broke here tho........that's because back in Gtown I never had to worry about my next meal because I knew in res that aspect was covered.........NOT ANYMORE, n that sucks. This year I also took my first steps into a DROS.....and to my suprise, not as D***h as I thought it would be. It has become my spot for sport, and the people I've met there are quite cosmopolitan as well......They come from as far as Manchester....to ekhaya eMthatha, which is always cool xa udibene nowqasekhaya, coz after a while "iyadina into yosoloko ukhumsha.., ungaphela uz'lume ulwimi" as we say, in the sense that you might end up contradicting, as well as confusing yourself after a while...I digress. All in all, I can now safely say that I am starting to feel (dare I say it) at home.

RU will 4ever be my home, because that's the first place I went to after high-school, and I spent two years there, but my CV will show that I have a degree from UJ, and I must make the most of my time here, and get that degree......until then, TUKULUKULUK!!!!!!
