First few days in the US

We went to my sisters place and left all my stuff there and left for the hospital. Her father in law was ill and she and her mother in law were there with Rupin. I was very tired and kinda sleepy, the jet lag was showing its effects. I tried to stay awake and stay cheerful, we had some snacks at the hospital cafeteria and then went home. The week long stay at my sisters place was mostly uneventful. She gave me lots of tips and gave me few stuff like a wind sheeter,a tee and some other things I might need. I was worried about where I would live once I reach Rochester, I was emailing people frantically and called up 1-2 seniors about housing and as well as for airport pickup. But I had a nice time, had fun playing with Rupin. We went to a beach in Delaware on the weekend. It was a long drive to the beach. It was a good experience though, the weather was pleasent.
Finally, it was the day I would be heading to Rochester. The day before my flight, I checked in the Continental site to print my boarding pass,but it said i couldnt till 12 hrs before the time of flight.
The next day when i logged in to print my boarding pass, it said that I was on the next days morning flight, I had booked the afternoon flight for the same day. I called them up and asked them how that had happened, they told me my flight had been cancelled because of the rain, so they had adjusted me in the next days flight. I told them I had to reach Rochester on that day only, so finally they agreed and I got the evening flight instead.

It was raining heavily the day I was supposed to catch my flight. My bro-in-law was also traveling overseas on the same day, so I was going to accompany him. We left just in time to reach the airport, we didnt have any time to waste at all. The rain was slowing us down, the visibility was low and we couldnt go any faster. We kept calling the airport to inquire about the status of the flight and hoped that it would be late by at least an hour. The flight was delayed and we made it to the airport in time. I took the short flight to Rochester and kept hoping to see some fellow RIT students. I finally met my future roommate on the Rochester airport. We talked a bit,took our luggage and took a taxi to Rustic Village.
We stayed the night at this apartment with some students at RIT who had arrived in Rochester a few days ago as well. The next day, we booked our own apartment, saw RIT for the first time and got out college IDs.
My life in Rochester had just begun....
