After an unpleasant dash in the midday sun, sweltering as I tried to navigate out from Downtown Disney, I made it to the GHC Scholarship lunch. (I swore to myself never-ever to try to take a short-cut out of there ever again.)
Attending the GHC lunch was very important for me, I was eager to attend to show just how much this scholarship meant to me; providing me with the finances and support to come to Orlando to attend the Grace Hopper Celebration (something I could never have done otherwise).
Once I had gathered myself, and cooled down, I got to have some interesting chats with other scholarship recipients, discussions about the future, and debate about what was wonderful and what could be improved further next time.
Thanks to the Anita Borg Institute for making this possible and giving me such a lovely opportunity!
