AI is calling up your LC!





AI is calling up your LC but not ours :P It' s okay, we met Mairi when she was here at NLDC.

On the side note, I'm going to 59th International Congress in Istanbul, Turkey! I, along with 9 other LCP, NDT and MC across the country will represent Canada in IC 2007! WOOT!

IC is the first AIESEC conference and has continued the tradition every year organizing by different countries. IC is a 10 days intense conference which you will be able to meet AIESECer across the whole world!! Although IC is only available for LCP, NDT and MC, other members in the LC can also have the chance to meet AIESECer across the whole world through the parallel conference called YouCan! (http://www.youcan2007.org/).

Where IC is hosted by LC Istanbul, YouCan! is hosted by LC Bursa. All of the delegates of these 2 conferences will meet together in the opening plenary and Global Village. One of our LC memeber, Andreas Erdepresser whom orginally form AIESEC Austria will be attending YouCan! as well...

I can't wait to meet all these AIESECer across the whole and bring all these exciting news and traditions back to our LC!

Recollection of NLDC 2007, Toronto

As more than 300 AIESECers across Canada gathered together during early May, the amount of energy we've radiated as an organizaition is definitely one of a kind. 27 LCs merging together, sharing their personal stories and experiences. Personally, I've been touched and inspired by quite a few amazing individuals, their enthusiasm, passion and vision makes me want to become a better person and be able to inspire other fellow friends. As this being my third AIESEC conference and first national conference, I realize in terms of AIESEC work, it's really straightforward. What makes us different, is the people that make up this great organization. Whenever each AIESECer is in despair, I know all of them have the capability to pull it through as we're not alone; there's always a helping hand out there to reach for.

I guess that's the end to my little emotional talk =P I just wished I had the opportunity to share this great experience with all my fellow AIESECers, especially the ones from Western. We were an amazing group and I'm so proud of each and everyone of you. All the smiles on your faces show me what I've been doing is worth doing even when I hit hard times, remember how great each of you are =) changes start from within, let's ROCK our year! I love my EB, hope everyone is having a kickass summer holiday!

PICTURE TIME =) Western is SOOOOOOOOOOOO HOT!
