SSCS part 6 (Newspaper)

So with the media launch a total success of course the next day the event was in the news.

I was seen on the evening news of Swazi TV and pictured in the paper.

That is the link to the news article (but the picture didn't make the internet).

The most amazing thing about the timing of my appearance in the newspaper was that it was on birthday. In the span of exactly one year (I moved into my new apartment on my B Day last year, http://www.blogger.com/posts.g?security_token=AOuZoY603bk9TOtPxQEoGDL0sNjNAFNM6w%3A1314813879195&blogID=7456675167017700537&label=&searchType=ALL&txtKeywords=birthday&numPosts=25)

I am so excited about this event. I really can't explain how much of big impact this is going to have on the region not just my city but the region.

The excitement just keeps coming. And it is back to coaching it seems like some of the Black Terrors mess is sorting itself out.
