    Australian Youth International Medwin joins Club

    Medwin

    South Melbourne FC is excited to announce the signing of Tasmanian Aimee Medwin for the 2017 NPL Victoria season.

    Despite being only 17 Years Old, Medwin has already had a wealth of experience, representing Australia at Youth level and previously having experience playing in the Women’s Premier League with Boroondara Eagles. She has also represented Tasmania against our very own South Melbourne Women, as well as in the Bass Strait Cup against Victoria.

    Medwin is a versatile left sided player, who has the capability of playing as a left sided winger, as well as also covering at left-back. Her pace and quick feet are two key components that she will be looking to add to the team in 2017.

    Speaking to smfc.com.au, Medwin was excited to be joining the Club. “South Melbourne are a big club in Australian football and I am excited to be joining them for 2017. We have a strong squad, with some exciting players joining, so I look forward to the year ahead with a great group of girls”.

    Head of Women’s Football Gabrielle Giuliano was also pleased. “Aimee is a young, quick and exciting talent and we are happy to have her part of the Club in 2017. With experience at international, representative and WPL level already, we are certain she will be fantastic for our senior team during the upcoming season.

    We welcome Aimee to Lakeside and wish her all the best for 2017.

    I was recently quoted as saying, I don’t care if Instagram has more users than Twitter. If you read the article you’ll note there’s a big “if” before my not giving of said thing.
    Of course, I am trivializing what Instagram is to many people. It’s a beautifully executed app that enables the creation and enjoyment of art, as well as human connection, which is often a good thing. But my rant had very little to do with it (or with Twitter). My rant was the result of increasing frustration with the one-dimensionality that those who report on, invest in, and build consumer Internet services talk about success.

    Numbers are important. Number of users is important. So are lots of other things. Different services create value in different ways. Trust your gut as much (or more) than the numbers. Figure out what matters and build something good.

    Once I gave the headphones a thorough once-over exam, I tried them on. As I mentioned, they have a classic over-the-ear style and just looking at them, the padding on the ear pieces seem adequate and the peak of the headband seemed to be a bit lacking, but you don’t really know comfort unless you try on the product. So, I slipped the headphones on and found them to be exquisitely comfortable. Once I gave the headphones a thorough once-over exam, I tried them on.

    If no one hates you, no one is paying attention. If attention is what you want for vanity, confidence, or, hell — to make a decent living — then know that it’s not instantaneous. Every single person that you’re currently paying attention to, at some point in their lives, was in your exact position.

    Just like every other human on the planet, I have epically awesome days and days when life just turne against me. And while I can’t stand most self-help (see: tired quotes over stock photography on Instagram), sometimes I need a little pick-me-up. And most of the time, in order to get out of a slump (because my brain leans more into math/science than anything else), I need to drop a logic bomb on my ass.

    Yes, this is a long article. But here’s the thing — if you’re reading this in your inbox and are already like, “fuck this!” delete it. No hard feelings. If you’re reading this in a browser on a website, and you see how tiny the scroll-bar is because of how far you still have to scroll to get to the bottom, close this tab and go back to 140-character tidbits of advice. Still with me? Phew. Just had to weed out all the folks from points: #1, #4 and #8. Welcome friends, onward we go.

Every single person that you’re currently paying attention to, at some point in their lives, was in your exact position. They kept at it and worked enough so that others started listening. Also know that if no one is watching, you can experience true freedom. Dance in your underwear. Write entirely for yourself. Like there’s a going-out-of-business sale. Find yourself — not in some coming-of-age hippie way involving pasta and ashrams— but in a way that helps you draw your own line in the sand for what matters and what doesn’t. Do what you want to do, just because you want to do that thing. This will build confidence that will come in handy later.
