The happenings

So, what has been happening in the last while? Well, last Thursday, Dersan (one of my housemates) had a birthday, so we celebrated that. But the power was out, until just after the celebration was done. So, thus a picture of a candle-lit cake.

Tonight is a major soccer match of the Turkish national team, so that will be this evening's important event. A win is crucial for advancing to the next round.

Today I gave a speech in Turkish class on Davy Crockett, so my head is full of random trivia about him right now. (Did you know that he wasn't called Davy during his life? Did you know that he had 6 kids, three of whom were likely teenagers when he died?)

Final note, today is the beginning of Thanksgiving Break at NBBC. So, that's nice for someone special. Bethany's spending the break with a friend in Michigan.
