Hamam after work :)

Today I went to hamam after work with my dear workmate. She just did waxing and escaped after it while i was having some hard time. This washer lady was pretty rough and i still have pain in my back. After the scrub she washed me with shampoo as usual including my face. I didnt have courage to shout that i just got major acne attack after washing my face with soap during the izmir trip. however im glad that i told her not to scrub my face with the same style that she used for my body! Then hair! even in istanbul when i went to hairdresser 2 ppl was needed to brush my hair after shampooing and there they stood with these surprised looks on their faces and while trying to convince me once again that short hair would suit perfectly for my face... Well this hamam lady shampooed my hair so that there was this huge 1 rasta thing. then she left me alone trying to comb it. Accidentally her colleague saw me doing that and she must have thought that i wanted better shampooing, because when i had got my hair to a point it was almost straight, the lady comes back and starts to wash my hair all over again! this time even more determined. thanks to my savior she put some conditioner (even though the quality wasnt the best shhh) so i could survive home. but after 5 hours my hair is still a big mess! would need a boyfriend who likes brushing like i once had. :)

This is played here all the time

Tomorrow to Diyarbakir!

o ooooooh tomorrow morning i gotta wake up at 5am cos ima fly to diyarbakir with rasmus to visit the human rights foundation there :) wish me luck! im gonna take pics dont worry!

today i went to work and left early, as always... then i went to kizilay shopping center to complain about my phone cos i thought there was some rubbish like a small piece of paper inside the camera lens... and i couldnt get it off. so i went inside and told them i bought this yesterday and look whats inside blablabla... then everybody started looking and one of the sales clarks just removes the back cover and blows for a second and puts the cover back on! and thats it... i was so embarrassed!

then i went to take photos for visa, and then to fal cafe and taught cihan to play MÖLLIIIIIIIIIIIII! it was far from easy to find the cafe, even if it was so close to the shopping mall, like 400m away. so i was walking again with my huge map and asked somebody, then i said i wanna go to fal cafe, and fal means fortune. so this man takes me to wrong fortune telling place, then i managed to tell him that it was wrong and then he took me all the way back and was walking with me seriously like for 15min! ppl are so nice here, they always try to help! :)

Today was perfect!

I woke up late. And I was gonna go to church for the first time here, and I kind of didnt even know where it was... So first of all I left from home late, then I was wating for the bus so long. And while wating, some gasstation workers asked if I was married and were behaving really freaky. Then the bus came and saved me from them. So I took a look at my 1m x 1m map inside the bus, and finally understood where I should go off the bus. And told the driver to stop! Now I've learned it! Yippiee!
So I was standing there on the street with this huge map and stopping all the ppl and asking do you know this church! and they knew it! so i found there! And it was sooooo nice! seriously it couldnt have been better! And the people were so nice!
I was even handed lyrics to the songs and there I was.. singing in turkish! like i'd done it all my life! then I didnt understand the speech, but never mind! I'ma go there every single sunday, so maybe theres gonna be some progress. :) Then I talked to two so so so sweet girls there! Btw I arrived there 20min late, but suddenly they were also that late to start the service... I wonder if it was for me? Cos if there wasnt ppl standing outside the church i would never found it!

After that I went to work, and there was this meeting with 5 americans from Standforn university. So we sat for 3 hours but it was really interesting! And they left to Diyarbakir and I'm gonna go there on wednesday with my mentor and meet them again! So cool! :)
