Day 4 i think

Ah yes, updates updates!

Day 1.
This day was the worse day of my life. haha... I arrived at Istanbul airport all tired and just wanted to get to the hotel and have agood rest, maybe just walk around the city on my own... yes... first things first, here's a picture:
















yes! for those who have heard, there was a huge fire at the cargo terminal of the airport. This picture was taken on the airport shuttle bus i was on, just about 5 min after i left the airport. *phew* and yes i'm alive now.

Then the worse thing that could happen on the trip happened - I LOST MY LUGGAGE!!! i didn't lose just my luggage, i lost my Dad's effort to make my luggage as compact as possible, who specially went to buy a number lock for me, spent an hour trying to squeeze my winter jackets into a zip lock bag, always reminding me if i have gotten everything ready, and my mum's effort too - her countless naggings on how heavy my luggage is and i lost her juggling balls! she spent 5 hours making them and i lost them, AH. Yah, i lost my luggage to a bastard Taxi driver- who kutoed me, i escaped unhurt but he decided to get back at me by driving away with my luggage in the boot. ah, ultimate asshole!! so went to the hotel and realise i have no toothbrush, no extra underwear... hai!!

Day2
I checked out of the hotel early, goodness, the sun sets at 8pm and rises at 5am. ya, then met jacq and we made our way to Bursa, the city which used to be the Ottoman Empire. Yay! the bus journey was great! Really, the bus attendent would serve us drinks and food, i bet even cao yuan doesn't have such a great service. I think it is something bus company should try to adopt too lah... esp bus journeys that are more than 3 hours... like coaches to KL... make our jouney less tiring.

Yes and i moved in to my host family's place! They are Dr. Ilay and Dr. Bulent, and they have a very big house! a house that would cost 5 million in Singapore. They have a backyard and a swimming pool, 3 storeys and a nice balcony to sit and chill. They have a daughter who is 14 years old as well and the whole family have been very kind to me. They eat lots of tomatoes, lots of bread and NO soup. its already bread bread bread i swear when i get back home, NO BREAD FOR ME.

Day 3

We went to the NGO - TEGV. saw lots of kids and this really cute and naughty girl called Elif (pronounced A-leaf). She would run around and grab me and jacq and pull us to her favourite play area - the back garden. Although we totally can't communicate through words but well, kids just liked to be hugged and be loved. So we also found out that we need not start work till 10 june, so jacq and i will be free! yay! maybe we will go to the zoo on sunday with jacq's host family and her little 4 yr old kid called Kaira. naughty but very lovable.

Day 4

Jacq came over my host family place and we just SLACKED the whole day. yah, but i caught a cold and i just stayed in bed the whole day. Then Dr. Ilay came back and she came up to my room to guan xin me. *touched* i told her that i have muscle aches all over and she told me i should wear thick clothings after my bath. haha i love my host. she's the best. although they are particular about cleaniness, something i lack and maybe the potential cause of any conflict.

okie larh, enough updates i must be boring u with my day-to-day activites. nothing exciting happened yet, soon something exciting will happen.
