Apartment and students

Here are some pictures of my new room which is overflowing with STUFF. So much stuff has accumulated, it's a little embarrassing.



At first I was excited because the room had a queen sized bed, but it's actually weird to sleep in (not as cozy) and it's taking up valuable space in my room. It's not bad, and I don't think trading beds with the other room is very feasible so I'll just enjoy my roomy bed!



Cute little Christmas tree. I should have turned the lights on.



If you look at the other pictures carefully, you can see I have an extra little room. It's not too big but I keep my wardrobe out there, shoes, laundry, a fan, plants, and things like boxes, bags, and magazines that I don't need everyday. It's a little cold and wet out there now but it's nice to have that little space to store extra things. I can open windows out there in the summer and get a breeze too.

A couple of weekends ago one of our students had a birthday party-



Obviously that's me on the left, then Semra and Semra (both speak pretty well, Semra #2 lived in England for a while), Gavin (teacher from England), and Umit, our beloved student who finished his course but he still comes to hang out with us.



That's Serkan on the left and Aylin, the girl whose birthday it is, on the right. Aylin is the one who made me a necklace and she makes beautiful scarves and puzzles etc. Serkan is going to Australia in a couple of months - I think you can tell just by looking at him it will be a good fit for him!
