Signs of Withdrawal is quite apparent in myself as I look at my pictures. I was gone for the National Leadership Development Conference in Montreal from May 3rd to May 10th. And let me tell you how it went it one word: "Amazing!". I’ll never forget Montreal. Probably one of the most beautiful cities in Canada. Visiting the old and new Montreal, wining and dining w/ my exec team, mad shopping at the mall, getting stupid ass drunk in st. laurent and st. catherines…wow, its been an amazing week.
My words can’t simply encapsulate the one week and all the adventures that I’ve been through. Its been a bonding moment for my executive team in AIESEC. It was great to see my old friends all over Canada. It was good time to meet new people all over Canada. As one of my friend/colleague, Jomar puts it…here are a few things we’ll all remember in montreal:
