Pro at Pro Evo!

The last couple of weeks, since i arrived back in Turkey, have been spent not doing much apart from lazing around and doing essays. I have however found a new hobby! That is playing pro evo 2010 in one of the many playstation shops around eskisehir, okay it may not be the most adventurous thing ever but it's pretty cool. Having handed in most of my work for the first half of the semester, with the rest due in January, im beginning to think about my plans for xmas and the new year. I have a few ideas floating around my head, with options such as Cyprus, Istanbul or Olympus, something is telling me to go back to Istanbul for the umpteenth time, i duno what it is about the city, im just drawn to it as many people are, it's fascinating! But the idea of Cyprus is appealing, if all the logistics can be sorted out, it would be pretty cool spending new years there. i have also pretty much decided to go back home for the semester break, i would have liked to have done the trip around eastern Asia but the financial means dont appear to be there and besides it would be nice to spend some substantial time at home, jus basically doss around, my favourite activity. What else? Hmm, it's bloody cold! Thought a year in Turkey, would mean sun, instead it feels like frickin' Siberia at times! Makes English rain feel exotic!

Back In Eski Town

I haven't posted for a while, but in the mean time i have been to the UK and back. Right now, im feeling pretty rough, with the flu and a cough, so i haven't really left the apartment since i came back, just a couple of times, once to go play PES 2010 at a local PS3 shop. I had left for England on the 19th November at 1am, but the train to Istanbul was delayed until 2am, i slept pretty much thru the train journey but it arrived two hours late in Istanbul as it was supposed to be there at 7, but arrived at 9am. I then jumped on the E10 bus to Sabiha Gokhen Airport which took around an hour and then i sat around a couple of hours until boarding which was just after midday. I arrived in England at 16.30, but my mum had broken down, so i had to call one of my closest mates to see what he could do and someone came and got me around an hour and half later, i owe them big time! So i finally got back at around 20.30, but then was definitel a great sense of relief. I spent the two weeks pretty much sitting at home and seeing close mates, before i went back i thought i would be going here, there and everywhere, but i just didnt feel like doing much. My lil sister had been bought a lil Ford KA, so i insured it and drove it around, certainly felt nice to be back :) So two weeks past, Eid past, a simple one, spent at home and partly working in my dads restaurant and i came back on a 8am flight on wednesday morning, after another whole day of travelling i finally arrived back in my room in Eskisehir at around 22.30. I sat there thinking, it feels like just yesterday i was sitting here packing to go home, how those two weeks flew by i dont know. Time is flying uncontrollably, i'm just trying to hold on to its wings :)
