CURRENT MISSION

Playing the music of life on the strings of Universe.

ABOUT ME

When I filled out my profile, I was faced with this question : "If we asked your best friends about you, what kinds of things would they say?". Then, obediently, I called my friends for help.

"A very nice and crazy girl with whom you can have fun", answers Ombeline.
"Her sense of humor, imagination, her altruism" says William.

Well, I think they could manage in a career in sales and marketing.

What I suspect they wanted to tell you, but didn't, for fear I should take revenge : "Beware ! At first she may seem timid, but once you let her feel a little comfortable, she'll begin to sing anything at any moment, to tell stupid jokes (you don't always know if you have to laugh or not), to do strange things sometimes, and you'll regret it bitterly... Flee while it's time !"

Another thing to know is : I am a vegan.

If you are Turkish, please write to me in Turkish, not in English.

PHILOSOPHY

First you have a material : the apparently chaotic, shapeless, absurd, ununderstandable thing which is your life. Then, you can give it a form. Look for new experiences, for the apparent or hidden beauty in every things and people. Absorb every event that happens to you, every sound, every feeling. Then give it back : make your life a novel, a movie, a painting. Enjoy life, be curious of everything, learn, share, be creative, remain optimistic even when you have troubles. Try to make your existence as close as possible to the way you dream it. Don't judge people too fast and remember they're fascinating and complex entities with feelings, opinions, their own story and philosophy... just like you. Sometimes you may have difficulty to communicate with some of them, but when you manage, you have a lot of things to learn from each other.
