THE SUMMER GIG BLOG

Last September AXE put a call out to Canadians: show us why we should give you a
summer filled with unforgettable personal and professional experiences.

Canada answered. After fighting off the competition, two clear winners have emerged.

Please meet, AXE Canada’s Consumer Consultants for 2010...

THE BLOGGERS

All "Amazing":

The End.

Post by jaimeneefs

Welcome to the end Mr. Yantho and friends.  As the AXE Summer Gig officially comes to a close today, I feel it fitting to look back on the past two months.  Sure it’s been busy and time-consuming with the huge commitment to the blog, but with hard work comes play.  Deadlines are deadlines, but once the day is done, in come the fun.  And there definitely was no shortage of that!  Now let me take you back to the start for a look at ‘Jaime’s Top 10 Moments of the AXE Summer Gig.’

10. The ‘AXE Condo’

With a place this good looking, it was love at first sight!

9. The Airplane Boys and For Higher Ground

Al and I checked out these up-and-coming local bands and my mind was blown.

8. Night out with the AXE team

This was one of our first nights in Toronto and we were treated to a delicious dinner with the big bosses of AXE.  ‘Man’-politans courtesy of Al!

7. My first tattoo

I went under the needle for my very first tat during my time in Toronto and it couldn’t have turned out better!  Props to Brody Polinsky for the ballin’ artwork.

6. My first (in a very long time) baseball

I picked quite possibly the hottest day in June to check out Toronto’s very own ball team.  That, and it went to fifteen innings, FML.

5. The Drake Hotel

After hearing crazy awesome reviews about this place I knew I had to see it for myself.  Insta-baller!

4. International soccer

I was lucky enough to enjoy all the international soccer in a city with so much culture.  Hup Holland!

3. Canada Day in Ottawa

Definitely a highlight of my summer!  A skin tight highlight that is, ahem morphsuits.

2. Video awards

Rocked out in a crowd of thousands and had a chance to see my 16-year old superstar crush (embarrassing)!

1. All 61 days

I know, I know, it’s not very fair to include the entire experience in my Top 10.  But believe me, if you got this chance and this experience, you’d be sayin’ the same thing, brotha!  Amazing.

It’s been fun you guys.  Until next time,

Jaime
