Counting my blessings
God has a strange sense of humour. Here I was feeing all lonely and sad because I didn't have anyone to talk to and spend time in Sydney and now all of a sudden things have started to change for the best. I went to collect my time table for the course today and made friends with an Indian girl in my group. We ended up spending a lot of time together looking for a apartment for her and the later went to a shopping mall and shared a meal. It was a relief to finally have someone I knew at the culinary institute.
I also received a mail from a blog reader AK who is an Indian settled in Sydney and we plan to meet tomorrow in the city. I am looking forward to catching up with him! And later in the week I plan to go and meet JB in the city!! Things have started to look up already and here I was thinking in the morning that with classes starting on Monday I would be bored sitting at home over the next few days.
I also realized that I have been lucky than most overseas students (especially Indian) who have a tough time when they reach Oz with finding an accommodation and working out other logistics. I guess I had forgotten to count my blessings!! Fortunately up until now most things have just fallen into place and once I get the money to buy the car I guess I would be pretty much settled. There would still be a lot to discover and there may be some ugly surprises on the way but I guess it would all be a great learning experience.
Ohh I forgot to mention that in between all the happenings of the day I got a call from the ohh so adorable Mr Hyde and that surely did brighten up my day. Thanks for being the caring sweetheart that you are Mr Hyde. And thank you all those people (JB, Mr OZ and AK) who have welcomed me to Sydney and into your lives. I am so very blessed to have met people like you!!
