Patience

I am not used to having to wait for things, and am definitely learning the art of patience here. For example, I want to get a book, an updated version of the Cambridge CAE exam papers. I would usually just order one online (tried to do it here but to no avail) or call up a book store and ask them if they have it in stock. I thought about asking Sobhanajoti to call a bookstore but then stopped myself. I'll just wait until I start work downtown and go to the bookstore and look for it. And then if they don't I'll have to order it online from Cambridge and wait 4-6 weeks for it to be delivered in the mail. This has made me realise how easy our lives are in other commercialized countries, where we can basically get anything we want, within hours or days. It's all at our fingertips.
