All my IC photos online

Google are the greatest company in the world, even if they are only building the foundations for what will one day be a strike at world domination. Out of the kindess of their hearts, they have given me 250mbs worth online photo storage space, all of which accesable through their free-to-download photo mangement software called Picasa.

I have uploaded all of my IC photos here.

Such a pretty picture- Cool Mel and the 'uth' from 'Muth' 

So much work...

so little time.

I am so lucky. I speak to so many people beyond AIESEC and the one thing that almost all of them share is a dislike for their profession. My workload is crushing, the environment is tense and stressful, the deadlines are omnipresent, the stakes are high...and I simply could not be any happier.

Some people get all the luck- it's nice when it's you :)

Guess who

My good friend John Westgarth. We joined AIESEC at the same time (March 2002) at the same LC (University of Sydney). We were in the same OGX team as first years, we were on the EB together, then he was my LCP and then we were on the MC together. He is currently working on the expansion initiative in Bahrain (which incidently was welcomed as an official expansion at this IC).

It was really great catching up you mate. Good luck this year in the gulf and I look forward to seeing you again soon. I'm still thinking about that stopover...

The Australians at Global Village 2006. We always put on a good show :) 

It's amazing the amount of impact that a chair can have upon a conference. This year, we were blessed to recieved David Pollay (I think that's how his name is spelt) as chair for IC 2006, and he was absolutely fantastic.

It's somewhat difficult to describe just how genuine, caring, charasmatic and humble David is as a person, but suffice to say he touched every member of the audience in some special way. I know that my IC experience would not have been anywhere near as powerful were it not for him. I am certaint that David won't every read this blog, but from the bottom of my heart I would like to thank him for his involvement as chair. Gratitude is something that David speaks about often, and I hope that he is aware of the gratitude that myself and every other member of the delegation feel toward him.

Thank you David. 'You're a good chair!' 

Hmmm...

Let's see if we can't get this blog thing going again...
