Choosing my area of study:
>The best thing about being a marketing student is the many opportunities to travel.
>Since there's so much traveling to do it's important that you keep working while visiting other countries.
>To succeed in Marketing it's important to do the readings and to be interested in business and marketing trends, especially that of your own country.

My Life in university:
>To enter a French business school you have to compete, so I worked very hard. Yet once I was accepted, everything seemed easier and we had less work. I ended up spending all my time having fun with friends.
>The hardest thing I found in adjusting to university life was the homework I had to do. Moreover, I was pretty stressed by the exams I had to pass.

A little bit more about me:
>My life is like the TV show "Friends". Even though I have my own apartment, I'm never alone.
>Being myself means simply being what I like to be; what I am made for.
>The hardest thing I've ever done was moving from France to Quebec and leaving behind all of my friends, my family and my church.
>I'd hate to be without: my wallet.
>I'm most proud of: my girlfriend.
>I'd love to meet: my girlfriend's deceased father. I'm sure he was a great guy.
>My best friend Marlyse had a great influence on me. She lives with so much joy and kindness.
>Describe your room: It's pretty small. However I have a piano near my bed that I love to play. My room is also quite empty because I travel often.
>What you'll find me doing most frequently with my spare time is chatting with friends and my mom over the phone.
