Today was a regular sunday, I didn't do anything exciting (eventhough it was laundry day!) or even got out of the dorms, but one good thing happened! My parents sent me a package from Portugal and inside there was one privilege that the turkish people don't have: pork sausages! ; p
It looks kinda stupid to be thrilled for a couple of cans of pork sausages, but I am! Tonight my supper was not chicken or pasta like all the meals that I had the privilege to have here in Turkey, but instead I had two fried eggs, chips and sausages, not german or turkey sausages but "Nobre" sausages! The only thing missing was "paladin", the best mustard of the entire world, in my point of view! But still I had the best meal here so far!
Oh! Yesterday night was very good also, the concert was beautiful. Nora didn't like it, but I did, a lots. Although it is a show for tourists, i'm a tourist in Turkey and I enjoyed so much! The beginning was a little weak, though, but there were two perfomances that really astonished me. The show has traditional dances of several areas of Turkey, and some of them were very, I don't want to say boring, but they were, actually! But one was amazing: the black sea (or Karadeniz) dance. It is only danced by men but the strenght and the speed of the dance is really overwhelming! The other was the first time that I saw it, and now i'm sorry that I took so long to see it, 'cause it's really breath taking. At the first glance it may appear a little bit dead but the all perfomance takes you to somewhere. I'm talking of the mystical dance of the Whirling Dervishes, called Sema. You just see three men wearing a white strange suit with a long skirt, also white, and they wear a fez in their heads, and they just spin. But they spin for about six minutes without falling, twisting or even move their arms. Well, I think that i'm killing the magic of the dance, but everybody should see it and then they would understand what i'm saying. It is so beautiful, even though there's just three men spinning!
And tonight was the last episode of the 44oo. : (
Well, once again i'm writing this when I shoulda been sleeping, so I better say goodnight!
Goodnight!!! Sleep tight, don't let the bad bugs bite! :)
Jinhus!
