Good morning friends - How are things going? I am fine here and busy at work and trying to settle down. The winter is still there and is very painful. Just for the winter, I feel Canada is a real PAIN in the ass. Its unbearable sometimes. I dont have car, so need to travel by walk, bus always and its very painful in winter. Sometimes, I feel whether I will be able to adjust to this damn weather which stays for almost 6-7 months. Toronto is still better they say. Places like Alberta, Manitaba are more than double chill. Just cannot step out w/o car. To buy a car will take atleast 6 more months.
I joined a Driving school here so that I can take the Driving certificate which has discount in Car insurance. Office work is ok.. hectic sometimes. Trying to make a good impression, otherwise ppl are ok.
My bad luck was - as soon as I landed, within 3-4 days, I fell sick with cold and fever. Had bodyache, etc. Took medicines and then luckily became ok in 2 days. Guys - let me tell u one thing - in this -15 to -20 C winter, sala apna Indian medicine kuch kaam nahi karta hai... Vicks, DCOLD, etc are waste here. You can put in toilet and flush it. Need Real strong Canadian medicine whcih is what I took and became ok immediately.
I am really scared about the winter... friends - meri phat ke haath mei aa gayi...really..!!! Oh.. god... what weather is this....!!

Take care,
Vineet
