Ok so I know I'm a little late in telling you all that, but I do have a good excuse. My internet on my computer isn't connecting to Ally's wireless for some reason so I haven't been able to use it at all. When I had Jon set up my blog I had him create a way that I could get on by only clicking one button, so without my own computer that is very hard to do. And also because of that, I had forgotten my user name and password. I had been trying to figure it out for almost week and finally today I remembered...yay! Lets hope I don't forget it again.
All of that to say, "I'm here!" I've been here for almost a week now, but the moment I stepped off the plane I felt as though I had never left. I was here two summers ago for those of you who don't know, and it seems that nothing has changed. There are things all over this city that bring be right back to that summer, it's crazy! However, that summer I lived on the Europe side and now I am living on the Asia side. (A little history lesson: Istanbul is the only city that is located on two continents, Europe and Asia, seperated by the Bosphorus Strait). So the things around where I live aren't as formiliar, but I'm excited because now I get to have all new memories.
So far things have been wonderful. I have been able to spend a lot of time with Ally catching up and just laughing, which we do best! Her apartment is hugely amazing. Her and I share a room that is also huge...I love it! We share the apartment with two other girls Kristi and Mandy (I should say they share the apartment with me seeing as they have been here longer than me). I haven't been able to spend too much time with them, but they seem great.
As for what I as doing here...it's still not fully figured out. I'm hoping to have it all squared away before Jeff leaves, so you could be praying for that.
Thank you for your prayers and support! I promise I will try to be good at this bloging thing from now on. Sorry this one was so long!
