Here is a really cool game we developed during our semester of introduction to Software Engineering: Sigma Sorry (executable installation file). The game is based on the board game Sorry.

Travel

I love traveling - I cannot overstate this fact. In my first couple of years in the United States, most of my travel was restricted to Arizona and the neighboring megalopolises in California. Since then, I've tried my best to make up for this deficit by seizing every single opportunity for travel. It seems very unlikely that any of this travel will ever beat the sheer joy of traveling by train through India with her myriad landscapes and diversity, but one must make the most of one's opportunities.
