Cheers to a new start

Its been a month since I got to the USA. I have been looking for the time and correct frame of mind to start writing about what it was for the otherwise anti-american to be in the one country in the world that I had promised I would never step on.

The one thing that I realised about the American experience is that it is made up of the people you meet and befriend. In that sense my first week in the US was dismal. I knew just one person and school had not yet started so I had no hope of meeting anyone new. I had a good mind to get on the next flight back to India!

Two weeks later I was loving my friends, my school and some of the classes. I am still settling down. I need to get used to getting groceries regularly and start cleaning up after myself. I also need to start exercising. I need to get down to some serious studying! All that apart it has been a great time and as Borat would have said "great success!"
