~:[CH6 - Day 99]:~ Diplomatic or Not
There was definitely good diplomacy among some of our top students as we had a very successful weekend at UC Irvine. The conference conflicted with another conference, so the draw to the conference wasn't so large. However, the conference was well run and definitely a great experience for all those who attended. In the eight committees we were in, we ended up with five gavels (six people) with an additional 31 receiving awards! The students were involved and engaged for the most part, which is greater than what an award can tell me. With my evening plans canceled, I thought I would end up at home, yet I ended up at the TC with some alumni who gathered as we chatted about an array of things. As former MUN students, their diplomacy went out the door, but it was a fun an entertaining evening which I enjoyed. Of course, the topping on the day was the continued generosity of those around us, as we ended up reaching our second goal pretty easily, raising over $4500 in a single day. I am impressed. Tonight, I will sleep well knowing how great and wonderful the people around me are, from donations to taking the time to spread the word, they have gone above and beyond to help change the lives of those whose lives have been changed.
