Dressed in conservative

'home' for many Istanbullers




Speaking out at a cultural public rally in Times Square,
Later, posing with the models after hosting a Turkish fashion show...

My Current Faves pt.2...

  • Katy Perry and Rihanna- quality pop, always fresh material, love it
  • ***Twitter- my mom just called me a 'walking talking breathing Twitter' today since she believes I share everything I do/did/think,etc. with everyone who cares to listen without much hesitation or editing- I believe its 'relaxing honesty', she claims its naivete...I just have new-found respect for what Twitter aims to do for people,lol (yes, LOL- used to be on AIM, it stuck with me)
  • ***Prince of Persia-just when I bought it as a game for my new PS2 (its old technology, i know, but it was cheaper than PS3-who has time for video games much anyway- just wanted to use it as a DVD player), it becomes a Hollywood blockbuster
  • ***How I Met Your Mother- surprisingly popular in Turkey too, guess they get the dirty American humor
  • ***surprisingly feelin'...Adam Lambert songs! AND supporting Lee all the way on American Idol- hey, my mom loves him and says she'd totally support a potential marriage between us if i manage to land him-and hes a musician! how rare is that for a Turkish mother- so i take it as a good sign
