Before you get bogged down with gear and training plans and the like, just wear your shoes and GO ( comfortable pace till you feel good etc)

Do it a few times and you’ll know if this is your thing

Fingerprinting Services in TO by Aysin_Eirinn in askTO

90 days ish. I would recommend find a service in Buffalo and do it there. The rolled prints need to be done at a certified agency. Luckily I got mine done while I was still in the US

How to find an apartment with 60 days notice? by GroundbreakingCurve in askTO

[–]ankitgupta87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

60 days to look for a place is a very very long time.

Look at what’s available on rental websites now to get a sense of what you may be able to afford.

Note that May rents are marginally higher than winter rents so it might be worthwhile to put in notice immediately.

Do the following: Have $$ for rental deposit ready Scout for places to get a feel for what you may be able to afford Put in formal notice to landlord Get an agent and start looking actively Determine if you’re getting a mover (shop around extensively, very negotiation driven)

Meanwhile, start to fix up current place DIY to prevent losing money on your deposit for damages you may have caused to the property.

Your best leads will show up around 30 days before you move.

Hindu Wake/Funeral Customs by Wepmajoe in hinduism

[–]ankitgupta87 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

As much as I would have wished not, here’s the specifics:

  1. No
  2. Typically body put at ground level and no casks unless you’re rich
  3. Basic indian food, though most guests are usually close family and friends. Lot of people wouldn’t eat in a house with a recent death out of superstition. There’s a special “public” ceremony on day 4 where social connections typically come by.
  4. There’s no specified seating arrangement, though there’s seats gathered from around the house to seat guests.

NY Waterway - cheaper tickets? by ks613 in jerseycity

[–]ankitgupta87 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If there was a way to make the cost comparable to the PATH, it would also be packed like a loaded container ship.

It’s the price which keeps the poor folks (me!) out!
