India to UK-part2

We left for Birmingham instead of York from Heathrow airport for one day stay at my brother’s place to explore UK :P after 2 hours journey from London to Birmingham finally I got the chance to see my brother’s place which I have been hearing a lot from last two years. He rented single room accommodation and room was so small for an Indian to survive (at last we are fond of big rooms and huge beds :P ) but for a surprise every Indian learns to adjust with tiny room in English World.

I did bit of Shopping on my first day in UK at Birmingham shopping market(I don’t remember the name) where for the first time I saw British life. With Mr. S guidance I shopped for so called happening and in fashion clothes in UK. Well I guess that’s the good sign of more n more shopping to be done :P We finally left for York next day early morning with Mr. B(brother’s friend) in his car. To my surprise every second individual in UK owns a BMW which on contrary is hardly seen in India apart from Ludhiana(Mercedes king) or some rich people.

After 3 hours of non-stop traveling finally I was standing at University Of York main reception collecting my uni id Card. That was the moment which I waited for long. Here I am at the’ Place’- my university(after holding id Card I got the feel of calling it my University) Mr. S left after few hours helping me out with adjusting in my room and some grocery shopping. We went to “Morrisons” one of the famous chain of grocery store in UK. The Store was really huge with everything under one roof. They hardly missed out anything on store. For the first time I went crazy shopping for grocery, since I had lots of options to choose from.

At 17:00 on 6^th October 2010 the moment after Mr. S left from York was the first surprise. My room window is broken and need to be fixed soon since its freezing cold outside. I somehow managed to close it with small gap left opened. Ahhhh finally it’s me and York alone(with no wrong intentions :P). With lots of seminars lined up for freshies I end up my day in Edge Bar meeting lots of new people and fellow friends.

After almost 45 days I am enjoying my life in York with no nostalgia and lots of fun and hardwork around:P
