What did I do today?

  1. Reformatted my cv: added photo, added links to publications, changed colors a little
  2. Started writing a potential cover letter to docomo
  3. Wrote back and forth with my contact at docomo
  4. Applied to Birmingham
I feel seriously tired. These took me the whole day. I wonder if I will make it to see the ladies tomorrow.

My week in pics

View from Work Room Window..


Dubai Bride Show

Work Table...

Shall I stop swimming against the flow?

So, what shall I do? Shall I stop fighting and crying and then fighting again?

I really feel very cornered. My eyes drift away from the screen to the cigarette package on the table. My mind pushes it back. I think about New York, about beaches of South Florida, I think about my lovely husband. I think about my life of 29 years, lived so protected, so unrealistically soft. I think about Europe, its plazas, its museums, its values. Then I think about the States. I judge it. My mind twists and rolls.

I will come out and say it. I regret it. I should have never done a ph.d. Yet I do not say I wish I had done something else. I could not have done anything else at the time. There was not any exciting possibilities, any real challenges except what I chose. There was no other way out of Turkey for me.

I look at the cigarettes again. (I can decrease it to one a day perhaps. )

I feel torn.

Eskisi gibi asklar yok simdi. Eger eskiden vardiysalar. Emel Sayin Munir Nurettin'e cover yapmis. Onu dinliyorum simdi. (Olmamis, o tok ses yakisiyor bu sarkilara) Hatirla maziyi mesudu, sen de benim gibi yan. Unutmadim seni ömrunce bir dakika inan Olabilir mi böyle bir sey? Acaba cok orta yasli olunca mi anlayacagiz bunu? Gruba bakinca birilerini aniyoruz da, bir dakika unutmadigimiz var mi?
