This is me getting ready to head into the snow.
This is the fourth straight day that it has snowed here. Granted, it hasnt been continuous, but still. Thats a lot of snow, and a lot of disgusting brown slush/mush that I have to walk through :(
I did my federal taxes the other day and found out I get a refund this year! Not much, but so much better than the 900 dollars I had to pay last year. Hopefully I will be as lucky with the state.
My one class at ODTÜ starts tomorrow morning. I am not too excited about heading there at 830 in the cold cold morning just so I can trudge across the enormous campus in the snow. I'll take pictures so you can get a little bit of an idea.
I got my exam back today for the last elementary Turkish class (took it last friday). I got a 95. Dont be too excited, the class isnt that academic and I got to use a dictionary on the exam. But I think my grade was the best in the class. Today in class we played Taboo. I went first and got the word "deprem," which means earthquake. I didnt know the words I was not allowed to say so it was easy not to say them. Anyways, I said "dunya dans ediyor," which means "the world is dancing." No one understood me but the teacher. Finally, after time was up, I said it in English and the whole class said "OOOOOOOOOOHH!" ..... But they knew the Turkish words, so I dont understand why they got it when I said what they were already saying in their heads. Whatever. The teacher thought it was a good way to explain it.
Almost sleepy time.
