Here goes the full fledged update from me.
I and my future roommate booked the ticket together. We boarded Kingfisher Airlines at Hyderabad on 30-July at 5:40 PM and there started my journey to U.S. We got to Mumbai at 6:45 PM and got through the clearances and checking by 10:30 PM. Here I have to leave out 5 packs of 7'o clock blades and a small scissors. We took some rest before getting into the Delta flight to NY at 12:20 AM. We traveled nonstop to NY for 16 hours and reached NY at 7 AM. The food in the flight is good but not great. Again we got through the clearances and I have to leave out my Vaseline and Shampoo at the security check as they are prohibited and I forgot to put them into the check in baggage. We got into the Indianapolis flight at 10:30 AM and reached Indianapolis at 1:00 PM on July-31. Here we met another guy, who is joining Kelley and we took a limo service to Bloomington. Our journey took an hour and the driver took us around the university for free before dropping us at the apartments.
We forgot the apartment number of the friend, whose room we are going to use for the next couple of days as our apartment lease going to start only on August-2. Finally we were able to figure it out and joined him. We were there for 2 days and he was very courteous. We shifted to our apartment on August-2 and are still settling the things up. The funniest thing is the sun does not settle down till 9 PM as it is summer here.
Meanwhile, one of my uncles, who is in US came to see me on August-1 and we went roaming around the city in his car. We want to cell phone providers, supermarkets and many other place. He gave a laptop for me and when I want to pay for it, he did not accept the money. He told that he want to resent it to me. Also he asked me to check up with the University guys about the Cosigner loan. I felt so glad for that.
We got our student Id and its free to travel in buses with the id. Also, we went to look up the library, school and book store. All in all it is going great. We have got a lot of people here and having fun. We have started cooking for ourselves and I dont think it is going t be a problem for me as I can adjust to any type of food. We got some food stuff from near by stores and are using that for tha past 2 days.
We have not got any furniture till now and we have to look into that. We are sleeping on the carpet with a blanket and its not that bad. So..The journey has started. I am not running like I do every time when I start something. I am composed and want to start it slowly and steadily. Thats it for now.
