It feels amazing after coming first in World Citizenship Category and getting an Honorable Mention in the Innovation category. When i first saw the results, it took more than 30 minutes to sink in. Hope we make it to the international finals still a long way to go. Thanks a lot Microsoft and Imagine Cup.
