It was on a Saturday afternoon that we came up with the idea of going to a Doctor and look for problems that we could solve and we struck gold when we found out that there was a huge rush of appointments but they used the primitive methods of writing down all the appointments. We found out a bit about the business from the doctor’s wife since he was out and she was a very friendly and supportive person.

Thus we decided to make an app for them which simplified this process and make it simpler to keep track of the appointments.

It was the coming Thursday that we had a DSC meet-up where Felix advised us over the problems faced in each idea proposed by all the group’s and he informed us about all the events taking place near us

“Sieze every Opportunity that comes your way” these wise words were spoken by our mentor and Google Scholar Felix and they are absolutely correct because i would rather regret the things i have done than the things i have not. Though with this workshop there was no room for regret due to the possibility of new and exciting paths it will open up for us in the future.

When the first DSC workshop was conducted I was reluctant to participate in it due to the pointlessness of attending a seminar since I forgot what I learnt in them but it was too late by the time I realised that my preconceived notion was wrong, one does not attend a workshop to learn but instead to gain experience and connect with people. So I contacted Felix and he informed me that I could attend the subsequent session and that’s how I showed up at DSC 2.0.

The workshop held on 31st January, lasted 3 days and ended with a meet-up over coffee. The sessions were interactive and insightful unlike the Android development workshops I have attended previously. The speakers were some of the previous batch students so they knew the issues we’d be facing and were well prepared. Their teaching ability was marvelous and we were left thirsting for more even when the time was up.
