It is 8 days since I quit smoking. The reason is it is just too cold to go out to smoke.
Sundar.

It is 80 days since I have been in France. Ok I am not that happy to be away. But now I am beginning to get used to things and maybe this will get rid of unhappiness.
I will keep posting my experiences from now on. Tomorrow I am gonna cook chicken for the first time. Initially I struggled so hard to even boil rice. Now I know how to make dal, sambar, rasam and egg curry.
It is only six months more here. In some sense it is sad too. I have applied for the carte de sejour. France is very slow in the adminstrative things and so is my university.
It seems that I will get the carte de sejour in another two months probably. This makes it 5 months before I can go anywhere in Europe. Not that I am a kind of person who travels a lot. But I wanted to go to Germany to meet a friend.
A friend of mine came to Germany in Nov and within 15 days he got the residence permit and he is already going to Netherlands.
People here in France are very laid back unlike in India. Nothing will be open on Sundays and streets will be deserted all the time.
Today is the first day of snowfall in Caen. I have to buy good shoes tomorrow.
Cars wont wake me up in the mornings anymore for a while. But again public transportation has gone for a toss. Guess what I just bought a one month pass to use public transport and it wont be working regularly.
