November — A Month of Energy and Building | Chirag Joshi

2024 was eager to bid farewell, but my energy and drive were at their peak. The passion for building and learning was so intense that day and night blended together. November was meant to be special, and it truly turned out to be.

The journey began with Mumbai Hacks’24. Reaching the final round of the hackathon felt almost unreal — yet it was happening. Standing among hundreds of tech enthusiasts and presenting my idea was an experience beyond words.

Late nights, countless experiments, and endless energy led to something extraordinary — a tool that transformed educational PDFs into Gujarati podcasts. When I first heard the PDF speaking in Gujarati, my happiness had no bounds.

Then came the most thrilling part of the month — my trip to Delhi. Attending the Google For Startups AI Academy 2024 for three days at IIT Delhi was nothing short of a revelation. Walking through the IIT campus, learning new AI concepts, and diving deep into discussions with fellow tech enthusiasts was an unforgettable experience.

One evening, as I stood by India Gate, gazing at the Rashtrapati Bhavan, I felt as though I was standing at the heart of India — the place from where the entire nation operates. And when I saw the grandeur of the Qutub Minar, I couldn’t help but think: our ancestors laid stone upon stone to build such magnificent structures, and today, we’re building the future, line by line, in code.

This month has been a journey of learning and growth. Now, I’m ready for December, eager to create, learn, and move forward with new things.
