Moving...

Today, between 8:30 pm and 9:30 pm, the amount of the cacao and sugar I have consumed could be illegal. I am longing for my favorite friends, Nin, Asli, B, the Sister, Mein Freund. They would make me tea, give me big hugs, let me cry and talk, feed me and would take care of me as long as I needed. But instead, I just ate lots and lots of chocolate because they all are soo, sooo far away...

I do not want to complain. Moving has a lot of positive sides in it: a new life, possibility of amazingly tasty light installations and the beautiful furniture, making new friends, getting used to a new neighborhood. But, but, of course there is a but. I am sooo, sooo tired. I do not trust my decisions, because I am just too tired, so I change my mind five times in a day about a thing I am about to do which makes me more tired.... And my reaction to stress and being tired is not to sleep, and as you can guess, that is juuuusst great"er". Do you want to hear me not complaining more? Ugh.. I cannot even find my to do list (s!)..I am so lost.. But moving is great.. Right (Say it as Mark Darcy, LOL)

Design Tuesday

I am not down or anything , but it always relaxes me and feels so easy to look at beautifully organized and decorated rooms, houses. I could change couple of things in this house but also would live in it without any complaints. Still... my favorite is this bedroom..

I am feeling geeky nowadays and started to connect my accounts on twitter, facebook and blogger. Let's see how it works. This post is also a test run to see how  all these function.

I am also organizing everything in flickr and I think I will go pro and use it to store all the photos I own and all the future photos I will ever take. Then I need to connect blogger and flickr.

I now stop complaining about the heat. After begging my parents to install an AC in their house I just found out that in the attic we have a fan! I carried the box down, cleaned every peace- no dust is allowed for me-, put it together and voila, I am a happy gal, being able to study - in a distant future at least-

Today is dark moon, so don't worry if your energy level is very low today. And the third day without a yoga practice for me since in ashtanga yoga we do not practice in the full and new/dark moon.

Where are these baggy panths?

A Sunday in Berlin Mitte, looking so not like Berlin :)

Exhibition in Oranienburger Street. Above is an occupied house.

I forgot to take pictures of the flea market in Mauerpark. I arrived there quite late. It was SO crowded and a bit touristic. It's interesting to see such a big flea market but it was not my style. I found it a bit expensive. I am planning to check each Sunday a different one. 

Yesterday was a quite a Sunday like Sunday.. I liked it. G. gave me a review about relativity and quantum theory over coffee and croissants which helped me dozens! I am quite relieved about the topics. At least I know now which parts I will put in my talk.. 

I have to apply for residence permit and it is legendarily hard process.. I am supposed to go and wait in a line by 5 am. Aaaaaarrgghh too much pressure. I am waiting for my health insurance documents to arrive!  I just have to wait, and maybe wait for another day if I cannot get it the first day... It's all about waiting, relax...

Reminiscences of Sunday for relaxing now... 

Flea markt, Berlin wall sight seeing, coffees, heffe weisen, random laughters and encounters with friends...Nice....

"Cuisine" and Slow Food

This is our "cuisine" or as some people call it: " my mother's magical drawer :)" The food never ends in this magical drawer and it is insanely delicious. 

There is a Slow Food Urla organization. My parents go to the meetings. We stopped by today with my sister. They are really doing some cool and authentic stuff. I totally support them. Will reveal the website here as soon as they load the content.

Can this be my bedroom?

My late new year resolutions:
1. Create a bedroom like this.
2. Find an apartment and don't move, you can sublet if you like, but don't look for short term arrangements any more.
3. Speak German! Find a tandem, take lectures if you have to!
4. Practice Ashtanga Yoga with a complete primary series including vinyasas!
5.Write the first chapter of your thesis.
6. And of course..Moderation and Grace

11 month- period is enough for all these things. Great!
