people;
what you got for me?
just bring it on!
what's it gonna be?
i'm ready for it!

you know i really like it
i know i'll always be here

whatever you do,
whatever you say,
nothing can push
the feeling away.

it's here in my heart and
it's here in my head
i feel like i'm part
of a book i read

and every page,
and every paper
seem to be part of
human nature

sending me back down memory lane
my favored record is playing again

you know i really like it
i know i'll always be here
you know it makes my heart beat

Eger ordan burdan duydugunuz seylere ve tatminsiz, abuk subuk ruh hastalarinin doldurusuna göre benimle (bizimle?) iliskinizi sürdürecekseniz, yaptiginiz yorumlarda, ettiginiz laflarda bunun etkileri hissedilecekse: SÜRDÜRMEYIN. Yeterli IQ ve sosyal deneyime sahipseniz, burada denilmek istenileni hemen anlarsiniz. Aslanlarim benim. (;

Bu kadar.

Well, yes. I mean, really, enough... I've been living abroad for say, nearly 6 years and I always get this question when I reveal my nationality.

-"You don't look like Turkish?"

I do look Turkish. I do bloody look like a Turkish man who has an Australian Hat (and most of you think it is a cowboy hat you ignorants) on top of his head and who speaks fluent English. If you have not left your village except visiting closed-system all-included hotels, is this my problem?

I am talking to you Dutch (If you want you can replace it with French, German, Egyptian, etc.)!

Actually we are so fed up with the expression we see on people's faces, we have just begun to have fun with this situation. Me and Diadra wrote 10 answers to "But, you don't look like Turkish?" question.

+ Oh, you don't look like Turkish?

Answers:

1. I look like Turkish.. (slight hand movement and mind-trick)
2. Thanks, and you totally look German! (priceless..)
3. Can you paint me the picture of Turkish Abidin? (a Totally Turkish joke)
4. While you were living in the caves, they were building Hagia Sophia in my city.
5. Who does?
6. Why so disappointed? Xenophobic, are we?
7. Aww, look at that face. You're trying so hard to conceal your disappointment, that's so sweet. (:
8. Well I think you could work on that look on your face. You know, for the next time you meet someone Turkish. For being less rude, I mean.
9. Wow, did you know that having a less obvious expression of disappointment on face makes you look much younger?
10. Oh, you don't either.

Even on this planet, in this age, when people consider a mere hundred years, or a thousand, to be an unusual span.

There are, for example, less than ten thousand "humanoid individuals" alive on this planet today who have personal memories of the saber-toothed tiger, the megatherium, the cave bear

There are today less than a thousand who walked the streets of Atlantis (The first Atlantis. The other lands that bore that name were shadows, echo-Atlantises, myth lands, and they came later).

There are less than five hundred living humans who remember the human civilizations that predated the great lizards. (There were a few, fossil records are unreliable. Several of them lasted for millions of years).

There are roughly seventy people walking the earth, human to all appearances (and in a few cases, to all medical tests currently available), who were alive before the earth had begun to congeal from gas and dust.

How well do you know your neighbors? Your friends? Your lovers?

Walk the streets of any city, and stare carefully a -t the people who pass you, and wonder, and know this:

They are there too. The old ones."


As Peter Straub interprets Neil Gaiman's words above in his afterword for "Brief Lives":

"Not too many of these interesting folk are left, which is why we get the elegiac repetition of "less than," but we might respond that we wouldn't mind lives in which brevity is defined on such a scale."


Well, I think one of those few left is my fiancé. (: ]]> *diadra http://diadra.deviantart.com/journal/17497020/ http://diadra.deviantart.com/journal/17497020/ Mon, 24 Mar 2008 17:24:50 PDT [link]

Minik ve sevimli otesi sehrimiz Nijmegen'e yerleseli iki ayi gecti. Keyfim de ziyadesiyle yerinde zira yasamimi bir sevgi bocugu olarak surduruyorum ve deli gibi ceviri isi geliyor. Hem islerim hem de ask yolunda. *tu tu tu masallah*

Fakat eksik bir sey var. Nedir o? KEDI!

Nada'min hasretinden arada bir delirmemin otesinde evde minik, tuylu, sevimli, canim istediginde patisine, parmaklarinin arasina parmagimi sokabilecegim, kulaklarini ters cevirebilecegim, gerekirse ibnibatuta'nin yuzune atabilecegim bir kediye ihtiyacim var. Gelsin kitap okurken ilgi istesin, ceviri yaparken klavyeme otursun simarsin. TV izlerken birlikte uyuklayalim falan. Tamam, klavyeme oturmak disinda bunlari ibnibatuta beyler de yapiyorlar elbet fakat ayni sey degil!

Bir de sokakta tek bir kedi bile yok. Her seyine (su ana kadar) bayildigim su yerde kedi yok! uhuhu!

Velhasil, Agustos sonuna kadar kedi edindim, edindim. Yoksa akli dengem salincaga binecek.

In English:
1. I miss my cat Nada - a lot!
2. It's been two months since I have last seen a cat, here in Nijmegen.
3. I NEED A CAT! ): ]]> *diadra http://diadra.deviantart.com/journal/15014642/ http://diadra.deviantart.com/journal/15014642/ Thu, 11 Oct 2007 12:30:34 PDT
Eksiler: Nada hanımefendi ve güzeller güzeli kızı Jambi'ye hâlâ yeni bir ev bulamadım. Ev eşyalarını satmam gerek, hâlâ satamadım. Borç batağındayım. İmdak!

Birds do it, bees do it
Even educated fleas do it
Let's do it, let's fall in love

In Spain, the best upper sets do it

Lithuanians and Letts do it
Let's do it, let's fall in love

The Dutch in old Amsterdam do it
Not to mention the Fins
Folks in Siam do it - think of Siamese twins

Some Argentines, without means, do it
People say in Boston even beans do it
Let's do it, let's fall in love

Romantic sponges, they say, do it
Oysters down in oyster bay do it
Let's do it, let's fall in love

Cold Cape Cod clams, 'gainst their wish, do it
Even lazy jellyfish, do it
Let's do it, let's fall in love

Electric eels I might add do it
Though it shocks em I know
Why ask if shad do it - Waiter bring me
"shad roe"

In shallow shoals English soles do it
Goldfish in the privacy of bowls do it
Let's do it, let's fall in love

I saw TOOL.

I witnessed Danny Carey.

I witnessed Maynard James Keenan.

I witnessed Adam Jones.

I witnessed Justin Chancellor.


As the GODS passed from "Vicarious" to "Ænima," I officially became a hadji.

Aylardir yollarini gozledigim canlarim cigerlerim geliyorlar! Canlı kayitlarini dinlerken Maynard'in "This is Tool!" dedigini her duydugunda gozleri dolan, hatta yanagindan goz yasi süzülen ben ve benim gibiler tanrilarla yuzlesmeden bir gun once ruhlarimizi buna hazirlayacagiz.

Tabi ki cok tatli yaratiklar. Simdilik zamanlarini annelerinin muhtelif yerlerinde uyuyakalarak, meme emerek ve miyavlamaktan ziyade viykleyerek geciriyorlar. Cozebildigim kadariyla 2 disi, 2 erkek var. Diger ikisinin cinsiyetini anlayamadim. Tek tek elime alip bakmaya calistigimde yeri gogu inlettikleri ve Nada hemen duruma el koydugu icin daha fazla da ustelemedim. Bes tanesi gri-beyaz, bir tanesi ise sari-beyaz. Tabi ki bir suru fotograflarini cektim. Kendimi tutmaya calissam da birkac tanesini buraya koymaktan kendimi alikoyamadim. Fotograflarin tamamina yakini ise nispeten yavsak bir site olan flickr'da. [link]

Isin keyifli ve dogrusunu soylemek gerekirse, oldukca yorucu kismi, Nada'nin, her anina tanik olmami istemesi. Nereden mi anliyorum? Cunku emzirecegi, ufakliklari yalayacagi, oradan oraya tasiyacagi zaman once yanima gelip meeooov meeooov diye bagiriyor, gozumun tam icine bakarak hem de. Sonra ilerliyor, geri donup bakiyor geliyor muyum diye. Gelmezsem daha fena bagiriyor. Bebekleri emzirirken patilerini avuclarimin icine almamdan ve basini oksamamdan hoslaniyor. Daha dogrusu, bunu talep ediyor. Bunlari yapmayi biraktigimda bildiginiz homurdaniyor, soyleniyor. Evin icinde baska bir odada durmama dayanamiyor. Yanima gelip cagiriyor iste. Sanirim ben yaninda olunca kendini daha güvende hissediyor.

O degil de, evde toplam 9 (yaziyla dokkkuz) kedi oldu. Ufakliklar en az 3 ay daha bendeler. Simdi ben kedi annesi mi, anneannesi mi, teyzesi mi oldum? Bir sure sonra delirir miyim? Evde cop biriktirmeye, sokakta oynayan cocuklara bagirmaya baslar miyim? Halim nice olacak?

Boyleyken boyle. Mutlu, heyecanli ve yorgun bi kisi olarak sizayim sabahin korunde artik..
