Gabriel Akerstrom - Journal (Part 1)

[Mason 81]

Hello everyone, and thanks for taking a look at my journal.

 

I'm going to use this platform each week to note my thoughts about my time in the league and try and let you all into the experience that I'm having in the league. The first edition will focus on my initial thoughts about joining the league. 

"Signing my entry form into the VHLM and looking at the list of available teams was a scary moment. For someone my age to make their mind up to move all the way from Sweden to play sport in North America like this was not a move to take lightly, but it has made me very excited for what the future holds. The sense of excitement as I looked at the name of the team with which my journey into the VHL would begin was an amazing feel, and the sense of anticipation of what's to come was very real. I'd like to thank my friends and family for helping me to get to the position where this is a possibility; without you I wouldn't be able to have any opportunities like this, and when I make my way to the VHLM, I'm determined not to let you down. Each game I play is for you and I can't wait to share this journey together!"
