Boot Camp @ India Development Centre, Microsoft

Generally I do not blog about events which are of no use to others. But this one is worth to mention. It was one of the best of the best camps I ever attended.
We (me and 4 other friends of mine:Ram, Rajul, Shailesh and Divya) were going to attend the camp. We reached secunderabad on 6th. The auto we hired from secunderabad station till our hotel did not know the way and where to go. So it was some round trip before we reached the hotel. We had our hotel(Ellaa suites) booked by Microsoft for us was very near to its campus and next to ISB. The hotel was wonderful though I could not see most of its facilities.

There were students from all over the nation to participate in the Boot camp. One of the main motive of boot camp was to meet people with similar frequency. That day, we went to Microsoft campus at 4 and had a introduction with the team of Microsoft. On that day, some of the participant had registered for the intership test. For those who did not register for the test had a skit competition.

For the skit competition we were divided in four groups. Though our skit did not went nice we had a lot of fun preparing and doing that. None of the teammate knew each other before the skit, but after the skit we had a know each other feeling. One of the thing I learnt in this was that understanding among people can be best developed when they are under pressure.

Then next day we had our technical sessions. The sessions were on some of the latest technology of Microsoft by the people who were developing those technologies. The sessions were fine (if not boring). Whatever be the case, it is not just my university teachers, who makes us sleep, but even those engineers. There is no worth in attending these sessions and seminars if you are not interested in them. Sessions can become interesting if they are interactive (one of the reason why my teachers in coaching classes were better than my university teachers).
That day evening we had our dance party which was one of the best event of the camp. That night even the food was awesome, esp. the "Gajar ka halwa".
Then next day we had sessions by some of our friends on robotics and MashUp. We got free nearly at noon 12 that day. After that I went to snow world, which gives you the feeling of being in a snowy place (ie, at -2 to -7degrees). It is one of the most wonderful places to visit and enjoy atleast in south India.
The boot camp was a great learning experience with a lot and lot of fun added to it. To say it in the way of some of my friends from Coiambaitore, it was
