It was pleasure and an honor to attend the Roundtable in Ottawa. Notice all the bright colors in this picture? Well it's the Caribbean effect, we just bad like that. The level of fun that we shared was so great that most of us did not want to return to our respective cities. At the conference, we mainly focused on the issues that we faced coming into Canada and how to improve on them, as well as ways to make the scholarship program more enticing for Caribbean students. I would think that *All expenses paid to Canada* would be enough but I guess not, since many students are doubting, and rightfully so. My parents spent more money on me for the past 4 months, then they did for the whole of last year. I feel refreshed to have bonded with Bajans, Trinidadians, Jamaicans and Canadians. It is always great to meet other Caribbean students under these circumstances, it goes to show that we are different and yet, we are so much alike.
