The most loaded waffle ever

April 23, 2010

Among other things, I learned today that my tolerance for sugar isn't as high as it used to be. I watched my host Dr-2-b Elif chow down on a similarly loaded waffle and become progressively higher pitched, excited and prone to falling into giggles. Me, I stopped eating after I picked off all the fruit and nutella and couldn't cut through the waffle because my fingers were shaking from the sugar high.

Ah, 19, how I miss to be you.

In the sun it looked like the black tulip, but was only Eggplant purple. *pout*

Chilling with peeps in Istabul

April 21, 2010: Back in Istanbul.

After a day of unpacking from Malatya, my older brother-in-law, his family and Dr-2-b Elif went for a night out smoking nargile and chilling. Elif ordered what has to be the most unappealing tea ever: Kiwi Cay.

All good things must come to an end

I wonder if Monster will remember the streams, gardens, daisies and hens in her grandparent's village. Things may change by the next time I bring her back--that's the nature of time; it changes everything.

Only loves stays the same.
