Now that I've given her Jocelyn's birthday present, I can post it online:
I designed and did the needlepoint while I was in Turkey. I bought a frame for it last week and framed the work last night. She loved it! Jocelyn's 20 now. posted by Melike at 20:45

I read the California Drivers Handbook today. I'm taking the written test on Thursday. This made me laugh: "Allow older pedestrians more time to cross the street. They are more likely to die as a result of a crash than younger pedestrians." So it's okay to be less careful when crashing into youngsters? posted by Melike at 04:35

On Friday, when I went to Reed's house, I took a picture of the painting he did last semester. It looks awesome!
My friend Christa wrote e-mails to her university's dining offices and complained about the lack of vegan options. They're really funny; I suggest you read them. :) posted by Melike at 03:45
My mom and I went to Petco and got two parakeets today:
Sorry the one on the left has poo on his back! Anyway, they have Turkish names. The one on the left is Bulut ("cloud"), and the one on the right is Peri ("fairy," but it also comes from the word periwinkle). They're so scared of their surroundings. They haven't moved or made a sound since we put them in their cage. They keep staring at us. Now, they're pretending to be asleep. They'll be fine tomorrow morning.
