Sunset was very nice in Istanbul today. A palette full of earth’s wonders. You feel completely glad to be alive, until a redundant human created drama creates a contrast with this feeling. Wish we could only watch this sunset and forget the rest.

blipfoto insists on keeping the unedited version. for practical purposes and a bit of stubbornness, I’ll upload it here. 

stay saturated!

It has been almost 2 weeks since my last time at Kadikoy. I miss it SO MUCH. Air, smell, streets and vapur. In this two weeks weather got extremely well. Maybe tomorrow with a route change back home, I will get a chance, who knows? song of the day: another day in paradise- phil collins. I enjoy Genesis with or without him but can't resist quoting this hilarious line from sing street: "No woman can truly love a man who listens to Phil Collins."

we look alike, don’t be fooled by that. firstly, he is a metal-person, a “metalhead” these types call themselves. this is our 3rd year of growing up together. I remember the days when I enjoyed indie and when he ONLY listened Megadeth as if they were yesterday. 

now we are in the middle of high school. college might break our friendship apart, as we’ll be in different countries/states. however, I’m sure I will never forget all the arguments we have, I quiet enjoy them. he probably doesn’t know about it but I value our friendship a LOT. 

memo, you’ll never be seeing this but keep on doing your thing. keep on standing against pop, keep on not transposing songs and keep making all your metal lover brothers proud.

home run in a quiddich way let me start with sotd -others seem harder currently- la foule by edith piaf. no idea if I spell these correctly, that's not my job, b4yrak is the one who speaks french. falling is a strange verb. once you set interest on something it'll appear everywhere. same situation happened to me. "falling" in Handmaid's vs. "falling" in the Ottoman love poems. much to think, little to tell. Mr. Dogan expresses unrequited love as a freeze. A freeze during the fall and you keep yourself the imaginary beloved object, not the lover itself. This way you create yourself a perfect-desired lover, thus can't let go. was it Mr. Dogan, or the Handmaid's Tale? :-)

out there in the spotlight, you're a million miles away every ounce of energy, you try and give away 

what could I quote to a natural spotlight picture other than this song, especially when getting prepared for monday? another day is being wasted today. 2 o’clock, I slept more than what I do in 3 days. to-do list includes every aspect of my life. 

I better go sleep a bit more...

there I go playing star again/ there I go turn the page.

I feel like the saddest shade of green. Only a green lover would understand what this means. Saddest shade; lots to bear. Instead of typing a mood killing playlist here, I'll just leave you with random thoughts. How can we take the control of our mindsets? Think about this: your logic is what manipulates the feelings by activating them. Or the opposite way? i'm not an expert, just a human category assister. We are listening my sad songs with Ceren on the road now. 2 hours, arnavutkoy---> maltepe (...)

*random choir pic* Blogging is addicting. I hardly resisted this weekend. Here is the result: all of my love (let sotd be led zeppelin's masterpiece with the same name). Another one goes to oasis: don't look back in anger. I thought this was too melancholic 4 years ago. Seems like growing up expands our perspective. Anyway, I love our choir. We have plenty of food and can sing anywhere (inappropriate places: done!)

sotd: halo- porcupine tree (soul seeks prog, vocals seek beyonce, sorry again!) i love this picture of b4nu that I've took a while ago. going over the photographs, I realise how tired I am. some "actual" sleep will help, only for saturday. after that back to my 5-6 hour per day pattern :-) also, detect "gaps" about yourself, that you want to improve and able to do so... that really helps.

Indeed👏🏼👏🏼

He is one of my favorite teachers in the school. He is understanding, relax and a good person. He treats us very fairly, therefore I always look forward to his lessons. Today, as a class, we talked with him for 30 minutes on a topic which was not related to class. We made him our psychologist. He listened, and offered suggestions. All teachers should be like him. They should be talking with us about anything, not only the topics we should cover. He is soo nice.

just a regular morning at gould canteen. i really miss the woods canteen. it was definitely better that the new hospital-like "living area". right now they're using the woods basement as dershane office, which must be useful for the students interested (who am I kidding, they hate that too). sotd: ve tanri aski yaratti- ayten alpman. this woman is the turkish dusty springfied. found her from my mom's radio, a good catch!

sotd: dere kenarina tas ben olaydim 

this is the best thing ever. believe me. restrooms have great acoustics. sometimes when I find a good one, I just stand there singing this song. lots and lots of feeling involved. that type of feeling you can’t really explain; bitter. not exactly sad, not happy at all. 

I’ve been coming home in complete dark lately. sleep schedule? hahah, that’s not for me. satisfaction of harmony makes it bearable, even loveable. who needs sleep when you’re making great memories?

Saw the bottom of my first candle. Tilt your head towards right and a Turkish flag magically appears. An anonymous friend with the initials E.K wants to go to a drink-coffee-I'll-tell-your-future person. We call those falci and they claim to tell your future opportunuties. 

This is a milestone! First candle to see the bottom, hours passing and closer to some greater things (such as creations, ideas, sleep, lots and lots of sleep) no sotd deal with it
