Viva la France

under Announcements, Wassup on May 28th, 2008 at 8:17 am

I can’t believe this but we’re going to the Microsoft Imagine Cup 2008 World Finals at France :D

How’d we get in? Thank the Software Design Interoperability Awardкомпютри втора употреба ;) I am really ecstatic right now so I can’t say much other than France, here we come! :o

So far, I’ve seen us, DCites (who are with us at IIM-A), Novices@Work, Team Douleur Vue Ame (Embedded Development, India) and a few people in the Algorithms final. This is Team India for this year and I’m proud to be part of it ;)

Now its 8:14 AM and if you’ll excuse me, I’ll start worrying about my DBMS exam right about now and the fact that we our return flight tickets are scheduled for 16:30 when our exams end at 18:00 (yeah, we’re waiting for new tickets :P)

You can have a look at the official announcement on the Imagine Cup Interop Forum thread named “Interoperability Award Finalists Announced!“

    [...] Then again, as I’m writing this after the 28th of May, I know that we’re going to Paris too so yeah, the second version of this post is a lot happier :p Pretty soon we are on our way back to Mumbai. A 2hr delayed flight later and I’m home. The dream and the trip had ended. Well the trip certainly did. The dream had a nice little reincarnation thanks to the interoperability award. More about this in my post Viva la France. [...]
