Catch the Sunny Spells! If you can..

The weather has been dreadful for more than 2 weeks now and they forecast another rainy month. As a result of that I am learning to catch the sunny spells as much as I can. While we were sitting at the roof cafe of Tate Modern today I took this photo of St Paul. I caught the good weather and locked it in here. It is not mostly cloudy with sunny spells anymore. It is now sunny! Time stops in photographs, doesn't it?..

Art with a hint of technology

I am obsessed with drawing eyes with my new crayons these days. But I guess I bought not the best brand of crayons and the colours don't really belong to our planet so anything I draw looks like a bit one of those primary school art class pieces. My crayons are my bridge to water colouring and who knows, it might even lead to oil painting.

For now, instead of going and getting new crayons with more natural colours, I decided to use good old/new technology snapseed on iPad and "Grunge"d my drawings to make them more natural coloured. It doesn't make a huge difference but since it is the grunge style, it makes it look more real, with more real colours that you can see in nature. There you can see a new eye that I drew and grunged!


p.s. I still don't draw on the iPad. It is old fashion paper-crayon drawing which made its way to my iPad by getting photographed.

Gun Ortasi Melodramasi

Haftalardir yuzunu gostermeyen gunes, kucuk cocuguymusuz da sanki kaybolmamizdan korkan annemiz gibi bizi hic yalniz birakmayan yagmur. Ikinize de cok tesekkurler, el birligiyle hayatimdan biktirdiniz beni. Sabahtan beri yerimden kalkmadan calisiyorum. Buyuk bir oflamayla ara verdim yaptiklarima ve basladim internette gezinmeye. Tesaduf eseri asagidaki su dizelerle karsilastim. Icimden gecirdigim yakinmalara tokat gibi cevap verdi Sems. Hakli da..

"Bir şey yap, güzel olsun... Çok mu zor?
O vakit güzel bir şey söyle... Dilin mi dönmüyor?
Güzel bir şey gör veya güzel bir şey yaz... Beceremez misin?
Öyleyse güzel bir şeye başla... Ama hep güzel şeyler olsun.
Çünkü her insan ölecek yaşta... Geç kalmayasın!"
Şems-i Tebrizi

Simdi ise geri donuyorum, guzel bir seye basla kismini yanlis algilamis olabilirim ama su an yeni bir rapora basliyorum. Umarim guzel olur :)

Burcu

Cok sukur molekuler olarak en iyisi biziz! Hmmm evet..

Ben Turkiye' den ayrildiktan sonra cok populer oldugunu dusundugum yeni bir kalip var ya da yeni degil de benim cevremde kimse kullanmiyordu o zamanlar ben bilmiyordum. "Bu kafa neyin kafasi!".

Ben bu kalibi ne zaman duysam bir irkiliyorum, bir rahatsiz oluyorum. Bunyem bir turlu kabul edemedi bu kalibi taaaa ki su haberi gorene kadar. 


Dedim ki, ayip etmisim a dostlar meger ki gercekten bu kalibin "cuk oturdugu' durumlar da olabiliyormus.

Molekuler Olarak Kanitlandi!

Bu kafa neyin kafasi sayin bilim(!)adamlari? Kendiyle celisen bir durum bu oncelikle. Din dedigin dogmatik bir inanistir. Inanirsin ya da inanmazsin. Var ya da yok oldugunu ispatlamak sacmadir. Acaba bu inanistan yeterince tatmin mi olamadilar ki molekuler olarak arastirmaya basladilar. 

Bir de dusunelim bakalim yontem neymis.. Simdi suda altigenler oldu e bizim vucudumuz da su oldugundan iste molekuler olarak bizim din super sizinkisi nanik. 
Hmm evet, cok guzel..

What keeps you awake at night?

Does it also happen to you that you feel so tired but you cannot manage to sleep. It does to me quite often lately. There are so many non related questions flying on my mind and I have decided to write them downhere and throw them out of my system. At least park them here for tonight :)

There you go... (disclaimer: do not expect any big or interesting ideas :))

 My hair: shall I change the colour or shall I keep it. I am at my parents' house and and ve seen the old photos. My dark hair looks good too. Hmmm, hmmmm

 My foot: When will it fully stop hurting. Will I be able to wear high heels at my cousins wedding in June? Does this new powder colour nail polish look any good? (seriously, WTH?)

 Work: I will be working tomorrow and on Tuesday. Why? Why? Why?

 The Flight: Shall I go to Munich city centre or stay in the airport during the 5 hour gap between my two flights on Friday?

 The T-shirt: I bought this t-shirt the other day in 2 min without trying it on and now I need to change it. Do not forget to change, do not forget to change! I like the happy giraffe on it though! :)

 The food: How come the food mum cooks can taste so great? Does mum feed me slightly more than I need lately? Am I getting bigger?? Nooooooooooooooo!

 My blog: Is it getting boring or is it only me? How am I going to upload all those photos that I have taken the other day? Or shall I? What would be the title? Shall I change the background colour of it, or just keep it as it is because it goes with my nail polish? (hehehe kidding, really!)

 Old Friends: When have we become so different people and had so different goals in our lives? Although how can we still feel the same for each other and have fun together just like in the old days?

 The Family: Is my family getting cooler or am I just getting mature enough to actually see it better? (No bro, I am not buttering you up, it is for real :))


Pheew, feeling better now, I feel like I emptied my head and feel even sleepy now. (Me with an empty head, not a big shocker eh? :))

Good night for now!

 Xx

Coldplay - Paradise

...and so lying underneath those stormy skies
she'd say, "oh, ohohohoh I know the sun must set to rise"
this could be paradise...
