Katy Pery- E.T.

2011-05-26T11:22:00.003+02:00

You're so hypnotizing
Could you be the devil
Could you be an angel

Your touch magnetizing
Feels like I am floating
Leaves my body glowing

They say be afraid
You're not like the others
Futuristic lover
Different DNA
They don't understand you

Your from a whole other world
A different dimension
You open my eyes
And I'm ready to go
Lead me into the light

Kiss me, ki-ki-kiss me
Infect me with your love and
Fill me with your poison

Take me, ta-ta-take me
Wanna be a victim
Ready for abduction

Your touch are so foreign
It's supernatural
Extraterrestrial

Your so supersonic
Wanna feel your powers
Stun me with your lasers
Your kiss is cosmic
Every move is magic

Your from a whole other world
A different dimension
You open my eyes
And I'm ready to go

Lead me into the light

Kiss me, ki-ki-kiss me
Infect me with your love and
Fill me with your poison

Take me, ta-ta-take me
Wanna be a victim
Ready for abduction

Eurovision 2011

2011-05-17T19:48:00.003+02:00

I was right about my prediction of Turkey's Eurovision song. They were not in the final.

Congratulations to Azerbaijan! Their singers and song are awesome.

Is this called protecting human rights?

2011-03-21T17:42:00.003+01:00

There you go!

Gaddafi is killing the civilians in Libya, so Usa, France and England decide to protect human rights and stop this mf cruel bloody clown by performing an operation of bombing Libya which causes deaths of civilians.

How good those 3 are!

Especially the French showman Sarkozy who only plans and thinks of the votes at the next elections.

Sadly, you are no longer any different from Gaddafi.

Plus, shame on UAE and Qatar by joining this stupid plan. You both are officially sycophants from now on.

Turkey's 2011 Eurovision song

2011-02-26T15:08:00.003+01:00

This year Turkey will be represented by Turkish music group called Yuksek Sadakat in the international music contest Eurovision.
Yuksek Sadakat has just released their video in which they presented their song called Live it up for the contest. Their performance was quite ok however i personally did not like the song although i am a fan of Yuksek Sadakat.
My guess is that unfortunatelly Turkey will not be in the first 8 at the final.

Here is the link to the song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6egbBOTAdY0

Sonunda Inception

2010-09-29T00:47:00.006+02:00

Sonunda Inception denilen sacmaligi izledim...Sacmalik diyorum çünkü film çok saçmaydı. Gelmis gecmis en iyi film fln bos laf onlar bana gore.. Film demem ben inception'a(inception benim olmadikca:D), sacmalik derim. Vakit kaybi derim. 10 uzerinden 5 verrim.

Fakat cast secimi çok başarılıydı. Görüntüler harikaydı. Leonardo Di Caprio dört dörtlüktü.

Film genel olarak Matrix gibiydi benim için. Uzun lafın kısası "beğendim ama saçma" diyorum.. Bu arada bilmeyenler için, filmde kullanılan takım elbiseler made in Eskişehir(Hurriyet gazetesinde okumustum 2 ay once) :)

WWJD?

2010-08-20T23:10:00.003+02:00

"In protest of what it calls a religion "of the devil," a nondenominational church in Gainesville, Florida, plans to host an "International Burn a Quran Day" on the ninth anniversary of the September 11, 2001, attacks. "

A church in Florida plans Quran-burning event. Ridicilous and sad at the same time. How would you feel as a Muslim when you hear this hostile news? or What if it was Muslims to burn Bibles?How would Christians feel?
Those people are just racist, hostile and absolutely ignorant. A good believer would never burn a holly book of another. Personally I would not. Do you know, in the Middle East, people suppose the Americans are the most modern people of the world?And these kinda things from the Usa coming up on the news..so obviously they are changing their minds..

This is not modernity, it just can't be. . . .

----------------------------------------------------------
I would like to share a good comment made by an American muslim friend of mine :

"to the church in Gainesville plannng to burn copies of the Koran on 9/11: burning my holy book does not lessen my faith, it only demonstrates your ignornace of your own "Christian" values. WWJD? This? I think not."

Tram

2010-06-09T16:17:00.005+02:00

On a tram in Warsaw, trying to get somewhere.. Tram is very crowded and a strange guy(for sure he is Polish) stares at us incessantly over 10 minutes and listens to us as if he understands Turkish...Later on, he comes closer and suprisingly asks us "are you Turkish?"in Turkish and starts speaking in Turkish!! we are like "wooow". Not perfectly but nevertheless he speaks well . He says he has been to Adana, which is my city, and also has been to Mersin. Fun conversation and fun situation...he suprised us... :)

---
Varsova'da tramvaydayim, bir yere gitmeye calisiyorum..Tramvay her zamanki gibi kalabalik...Leh oldugu %100 kesin bi cocuk 10 dk.bize bakip, Turkce anlar gibi bizi dinledikten sonra yanimiza gelir..ve Turkce "Turk musunuz?" diye sorduktan sonra bizle Turkce konusmaya baslar..Harika olmasa da guzeldi Turkcesi...Adana'yi ve Mersin'i gormus, bayagi biseyler biliyordu Turkiye hakkinda....sasirtici , guzel bi aniydi... :)

song of the day...

2010-02-25T16:13:00.009+01:00

Hi - salut -czesc - selam - everyone!

Song of the day from me : Sezen Aksu - Guvercin

The song is written and sang by Sezen Aksu and dedicated to Hrant Dink who was killed by a gunshot in Istanbul in 2005(click to read about it on bbc)....

My favourite part of the song:
"Bir daha açar mi karanfil korkusuz Bir daha uçar mi güvercin sehirde Yalanci günesli bir ocak Mübarek cuma gününde"

in English: Does carnation bloom fearlessly again.Does a dove flies in this city again. A liar sunny January. on holly friday.

Why a dove? Because dove is symbol of freedom...
Why the flower carnation? Because its symbol of love...

A fruit: Pomelo - Pomelo meyvesi

2010-02-16T01:14:00.003+01:00

This week i tried a fruit for the first time in my life, the fruit pomelo..also called chinese grapefruit..sounds like Pamela :D Well, my first impression of taste of a pomelo was like "its mixture of a grapefruit and orange"..because the pomelo is sweeter than a grapefruit and sourer than an orange...Personally speaking, i'd prefer a pomelo than a grapefruit as I don't like the taste of a grapefruit much.
The pomelo i ate was "made in Israel", so, quite interesting :) and i paid for a pomelo which was about 1-1,2 kg around 1,5 euro..
The fruit pomelo on wikipedia

-Pomelo meyvesi-

Hayatimda ilk defa bu hafta denedim..Cin greyfurtu da deniyormus..Pomelo ismi hosuma gitti, pamela gibi :D

Pomelo meyvesinin tadi greyfurtla portakal karisimi ne cok tatli ne de cok ekşi..Greyfurttan tatli, portakaldan ekşi.
Yedigim pomelo Israel'de uretilmis, 1 tanesi ortalama 1 kg ve kilogram fiyati 2-2,5 TL arasi bir rakama denk geliyor..
Pomelo meyvesi hakkinda eksisozluk'te soylenenler icin tiklayin..
Pomelo meyvesiyle,yetistiriciligiyle ve pomelonun faydalariyla ilgili bilgi edinmek isterseniz tiklayin..

What is Spoiler? (Spoiler ne demektir?)

2010-01-30T01:54:00.005+01:00

What's spoiler?
Spoiler is information that gives details from a part of a book or a movie, which may take all the curiousity from the reader or watcher candidate. Thus you generally see some alerts on some review websites about books or movies, which are like "no spoiler" or "contains spoiler"...
wikipedia explanation of spoiler:

Spoiler is slang for any element of any summary or description of any piece of fiction that reveals any plot element which will give away the outcome of a dramatic episode within the work of fiction, or the conclusion of the entire work. Because enjoyment of fiction sometimes depends upon the dramatic tension and suspense which arises within it, the external revelation of such plot elements can "spoil" the enjoyment that some consumers of the narrative would otherwise have experienced.

on dictionary:

Information included within that may give away details to someone who hasn't read all the books.

TURKCE VERSIYON- (Turkish version)

SPOILER NE DEMEK?

Spoiler bir filmi veya bir kitabi , filmden veya kitaptan ayrintilar vererek tanitmadir. Kitabi okuyacak veya filmi izleyecek kisinin hevesini kacirabilir...Genellikle bloglarda "spoiler yoktur" yazar veya spoilerlar bir kutu icine saklanir boylece okuyucu istemeden spoiler okumus olmaz..

A short conflict between Turkey and Israel

2010-01-17T22:08:00.004+01:00

Last week, a short conflict between Turkey and Israel occurred.

In a part of the Turkish tv series called Kurtlar Vadisi, the leading actor broke into Israeli embassy, which made Israel to react to Turkey .

That part of the series:

Israeli Deputy Foreign Minister Danny Ayalon invited the Israel ambassador of Turkey to protest against the Turkish series Kurtlar Vadisi and he did it in “Israeli way”.

The Turkish ambassador was waited in front of the door, which is not a professional way of acting by Israel.

Also, Ayalon invited media crews to the beginning of the meeting and pointed out Celikkol was seated at a low sofa while Ayalon and two colleagues sat on higher chairs, and only the Israeli flag was on the table between them. "It is important to show that he [Celikkol] is low and we are high and there is only one flag".

What a funny way of acting! Very professional, indeed!

A day later; "Unless they make up for it by this evening, our ambassador will return on the first plane tomorrow," said by Turkish President Abdullah Gul.

And final; Israel apologized to Turkey and accepted it was not professional and diplomatic behaviour.And Turkey accepted the apology.

No more comments, no need :)

Do you sleep 8 hours a night?

2010-01-02T05:00:00.003+01:00

Do you sleep 8 hours a night? Then, sleep less!

"Although it’s a common belief that 8 hours of sleep is required for optimal health, a six-year study of more than one million adults ages 30 to 102 has shown that people who get only 6 to 7 hours a night have a lower death rate. Individuals who sleep 8 hours or more were shown to have a significantly increased death rate compared to those who averaged 6 to 7 hours."

said by researchers of University of California.

Do you sleep less than 4 hours a night? Then, sleep more!

" Individuals who sleep less than 4 hours a night also were shown to have a significantly increased death rate compared to those who averaged 6 to 7 hours."

also said by the same researchers.

I also heard sleeping less increases quality of sleep...Usually school days, I sleep around 7 hours a night...Well, yesterday I slept about 12 hours. Today I am not going to sleep more than 5 hours to balance my routine.
and how about you guys? Do you agree with the sleeping 6-7 hours idea and do you think sleeping less increases quality of sleep?

looking forward to seeing some comments...

The angry woman

2009-12-24T02:04:00.006+01:00

Shopping in Poland... :P
I needed to clean the keyboard of my laptop. Thus I went to a shopping centre to find and buy something that can help me to clean it, I found the thing i was looking for and I took it to pay desk. The bill was 19 PLN(Polish curreny). I had a 20 and a 100 banknotes. I gave the 100 one to the cashier. And it was my very bad behaviour...The cashier lady was pissed off with me.Because she did not like I gave her my 100 banknote,not 20...!
I couldn't understand what exactly she told me but i could understand she wanted the smaller paper. She looked so funny, was like telling me "please don't behave like that, its very bad behaviour, give me 20" lol

In final, she got my 20 ;)

She should try to work better, shouldn't be lazy to expend some effort..

She was lucky that I couldn't speak Polish well:))

My last word to this situation "wtf!" lol

Christmas (or x-mas) is coming!

2009-12-16T02:38:00.006+01:00

As we had snow in Warsaw 2 days ago (after a long while) some people said "it's snowing for christmas". It's pretty nice when it snows.And it's really different for me when everywhere is full of Christmas preparations, plays jingle belles everywhere(even in supermarket) and snows.

Here are some photos from my window(from a new place of living):

and some photos from the most beautiful street of Warsaw during Christmas time, Street Nowy Swiat:

Polskie Maslo-Polish Butter

2009-12-05T09:51:00.005+01:00

Polish Butter- Eating Polish way - Sandwich Culture
I love it! I love Polish butter!
I have never eaten that much butter even though I was a good eater(who eats what should be eaten:D ) before I got to Poland.
In Poland, people eat butter a lot. It's like that they never have their bread without butter. Bread ALWAYS must be with butter on it, this is the way they eat it, and I started having my bread this way,too, and loved it as i am a open-minded eater:) (In my home country, we don't eat bread with butter always, only sometimes in breakfast,so it's unusual for me).
So now, I never eat my bread without butter, too, and my favourite is small breads in Poland are called "bułka" with butter. Here is a picture of a "bułka":

People over here make sandwiches a lot, so they use maslo a lot.
Also Polish people like pickles which I adore! They have many kinds of pickles, even they have mushroom, which I tried lately and liked much. However my favourite is "ogorki kiszone,kwaszone" :)

To be continued about Polish cuisine..
Enjoy!
