July 17 2005, one of the most memorable days of my life, the day I landed at this wonderful place called the United States of America.
It was so amazing and exciting to be at a completely new place and to be surrounded by people whom you don’t know. In the beginning I was a little apprehensive, but I had a friend who kept reassuring me and helped me to drive out every bit of fear I had. I owe it to him. Thank you Sidharth!
The flight from Madras to Houston was 24 hours, it was the most tiring day of my entire life. I had food at odd times, slept when I should actually be eating and had to stay sitting for a real long time. But all this trouble was worth getting to the destination. That’s what really matters.
I am kind of getting settled at Texas A&M now. Probably in a week or two, I should be completely fine with this new home. Although I miss mom's cooking, home, noise et all, I guess one has to make compromises to gain something.
