Since u are going to learn this in the vacation, I would sincerely recommend VB.NET over c#. Believe me, VB.Net is much more beginer friendly than C#. Also, I joined a local .net group to clear my doubts as I did trial & error learning. You can do something like that too. Just join those microsoft groupos and they will supply you with Visual studio and msdn for free! There are weekly hands-on sessions too.
