BOOT CAMP 09 @ Microsoft IDC Hyd

Boot Camp 09 was in Hyderabad.One of the coolest benefits of being an MSP(Microsoft Student Partner)
is that you get to meet a lot of people from all over India or i should say that you get to meet a lot of
people with a LOT OF BRAINS.
Boot Camp 09 was the largest ever MSP Boot Camp which saw over 150 MSP's .And did it go well???
HELL YA.
We were given the finest  of rooms in the finest of hotels(Ella Suites, Hyd) and interacted with people
who are responisble for taking technology to where it is today.When Microsoft comes into the picture
things HAVE TO ROCK.
The Boot Camp was held from 6th Mar - 8th Mar.Everyday we were taken to the MICROSOFT IDC
which even smells of technology.After entering the IDC campus we understood who we really are
we knew the meaning of being a MSP.So now lets see how things went on....

Day 1
Internship Test for 3rd yearites and a small competition for the rest.Also a small session by the MS recruitment team.I'll not say much about the first the day coz i missed a lot of it :-(. Don ask why?

Day 2
After sleeping at around 4:00 AM the previous day,we woke at 6:30 coz we had to catch the shuttels to MS IDC at 7:30(you know we hardly slept during the whole camp).After a refreshing breakfast,the day started.
After a enlightening speech & presentation on the MSP program(which really made us feel really GOOD ;-))
There was a session on SQL Server (waz good to ;-)).After that we were introduced to the world of MAD(Mobile Application Development) that rocked and was also a sort of eye opener(if you know what i mean ;-)).The MAD session was followed by a session on writing secure code which (if frankly said) was mind blowing.We were told how a unsafe site can be made a safe one and how stop a hacker(i hate them) from spoling all the fun.Then we were given an insight into the next generation of computing.We were introduce to the world of Cloud Computing and the next gen AZURE.The only thing which can be said about tha is WOW
In between we had lunch..and man that was really good.I mean personally speakin the food was really good(even thaz one of the Many benefits of an MSP ;-)).
During lunch we realised that we were really lucky coz we were given the chance to have are lunch we top class MS Employes in different MS Divisions(it sounds so cool...we had lunch with people working with MICROSOFT)
We had a chance to ask them all of sorts of questions and did we do it....i say VERY WELL
We squeazed out every bit of information they had(or we can).After that group photo of over 150 MSP's.
At the end we had are very own ( 3 Musketeers),Mohammed Reza,Siddharth prakash,Mark D'souza  giving us all the backside knowledge of IE8,Windows 7 and (very interesting) 9 lives of students.
The best part was the give away's which we got(yipee i have a VISITING CARD).
Then surprise which rocked us all ,after a tiring day,a pool side dinner and a DJ party was organised just for us(MSP's are pretty good dancers you know).
And the day ended at 5:00 AM when we decided to sleep(I did say we hardly slept)

Day 3(The Last Day :-()
After an AWESOME Day 2 we are at the Last day.The day saw a lot of technical sessions from people like us(MSPs) and we got to know that we are in a group of really realllllly brainy guys(does make you feel proud doesn't it).Sessions included ROBOTICS,MICROSOFT POPFLY,HOW TO EARN POINTS....
The Lunch again was really GOOD(m not too foody just a lil bit ;-)).
And then the worst part.....we had shuttels waiting for us to drop us back at stations so that we return to our normal lives(why does it happen ?????).

In all the 3 days rocked.We were amongst the group of people who have all the knowledge about almost evything ever made and still strive to know more.When you are an MSP you never tend to say ENOUGH you say THAZZ IT!!!!
The Boot Camp was truly Aw Aw AWESOME
