I will celebrate πŸ₯³ because, though it's obviously not my birthday today, I declare it is everywhere I can, so that spammers would send their congrats just once in four years πŸ˜„

If you are alive, every day is a bonus day for you :)

Well, just keep learning, update yourself, help others and let them grow as per their dreams.

Oh heck yeah! It's also March Madness here in the US for anyone who likes college basketball. It's kind of a big deal near me because I live near the college UNC in Chapel Hill... that's the same college that Michael Jordan graduated from and they have a really good basketball record.

That's awesome, Michael! March Madness is definitely a big deal, especially near college campuses. I'm also applying to CS undergrad programs in the US, hoping to get into a program that provides a strong foundation. While I didn't apply to UNC Chapel Hill, I'm excited to see which schools I do get accepted to on April 1st. If I end up attending a college near you, it would be great to connect and maybe grab coffee sometime!

I'll let you know which one I get into!

Woooaaaa! Rock on Jitendra. So cool to hear that you're looking to come stateside for school.

I would love to connect with you IRL for a coffee. Please keep in touch with me and let me know where you end up.

And really hope that you get into your top choices! πŸ™Œ

Thanks a bunch!

Will definitely keep you posted on my journey and where I end up. Fingers crossed for those top choices! 🀞 Let's plan that coffee meet-up soon.
