Blog to Turi Riento
Moi everyone! First off I would like to say
thank you for welcoming me here in Turku and taking me in as a member of this
Riento Club, it’s been fun so far. I must admit when I first arrived I was a
bit nervous because the language was very hard to understand. Four months
later, I still don’t have a clue what’s being said around me but I can pick up
on some key words. Some of the words I know are “moi, mita kaluuh, kiitos,
hyva, andeeski, and the numbers 1-20” just to name a few things so I’m
learning. My experience so far has been a good one to date, I think mainly
because I feel right at home. The team is cool, and each and every day we’re
trying our best to get better so I thank you again for supporting us throughout
the season and cheering us on in our games both wins and losses.
When I first got here I told myself that I
would like to make an impact on the team like I did on every other team I
played on back in the States. Each day I have one job and that’s to go to
practice and give it my all day in and day out and try to make my teammates
better as well. Although, we haven’t won many games this season we still
believe in one another and the possibilities at hand just taking it one day at
a time. Believe with us. Our record of wins and losses is not indicative of the
potential this team has, we’re better than our record shows. Enjoy the rest of
the games because we sure will! We hope you continue to cheer us on all the way
through the playoffs to the championship game!
On the basketball court I’m a fierce
competitor and off the court I’m a friendly entrepreneur/business woman. I
enjoy music and I enjoy laughter. I’ve been to the market a few times, and the
malls both of which I enjoy going to every once and a while. I haven’t quite
yet ventured out into Turku as much because I’m a “homebody”. I started my
business Fan Favorite Apparel a couple months ago back home and I have been
working on it ever since. “Fan Favorite” is a nickname acquired playing
basketball back in the States so there people call me Fan Favorite, here I’m
known as “Lucky”, both names are cool with me J One day I want Fan Favorite Apparel to be a nationally recognized
brand and business but I know nothing great happens overnight! So off the court
I spend a majority of my time researching, reading, and interacting with fans
and supporters on my social networks to keep up with Fan Favorite. If you or
anyone you know is into business I would be more than happy to have a
conversation with them, I’m always trying to learn more.
“You don’t need glamour or exposure, hard
work prevails.” That’s the main message behind my Fan Favorite movement and it
is also a message I like to tell others.
Just continue to believe in yourself, be confident, and stay focused and
you will be able to accomplish whatever you set out to do because dreams do
come true. I’m living proof!
