Well thank you, Becca..


July's here. Half the year is over. That would mean just about 5 more months till winter, December and other festivities of great joy. Btw T-Mac this whole, "Challenge" business is a good way to keep me on my toes. I still want my laptop back from the service guys though. Blogging on the family desktop is not very comforting.

I've just learned that I've been invited to the Presidential Youth Inaugural Conference. GYLC certainly has it's upsides and if Obama does win then I believe this will certainly be a historic moment. Ever since GYLC I've ignored the other conferences due to lack of funds and/or clashes with my exam schedule but I really DO want to go for this 4 day conference. I think this is pretty big and I wouldn't want to miss it.

And so the sponsor hunt begins! Now, I'll need money for the following things:
  1. Flight tickets, to and from
  2. The conference fee.
  3. Food & other expenses.
Now while this list isn't big, the first 2 slots are really large chunks. The conference fee will probably be the biggest amount that I'd have to pay and come this weekend, I will actively begin a sponsor hunt.

The world NEEDS me to be there when Obama wins (InshAllah).

(Ok, that's not true at all, and my presence there would be insignificant to the world and Obama, but THINK of all the possibilities and the experience. It's my ego that needs me to be there more than anything else.)


SO, off the top of my head, what kind of firms can I approach and get them to part with their hard earned money.
  1. Media-related firms. Maybe I could offer insider information or document the whole journey. I know that I'll be given a LOT of documents when I'm there and according to the invitation plan I meet a lot of people, INCLUDING a (and I quote), "Major Presidential Candidate." So it could just be their marketing guys or who knows.
  2. Banks and Construction firms. They have a lot of cash.
  3. Airlines. If I want to get free tickets I'm gonna have to start looking for the tickets NOW because most airlines decide their sponsor budgets a year in advance.
So that's my detailed list and let's see what I can get done.


Moving on, that was my post on life and now a little round of 20 questions.

Ackshoolly, the conference is between the 17th and 21st of January. But it's GYLC Alumnus only. I dunno if you'd be able to come, although that would've been OZZUM.
