Turkey or Bust: July 2009
http://maeghaninturkey.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
Welcome to my web diary documenting my year living in Istanbul, Turkey. Tuesday, July 28, 2009. I'm pleased to inform you all that I'm home safe and sound. My friends showed up at the airport with a giant "Welcome Home Maeghan! Sign and turkeys painted on their chests. This morning I woke my brother up at 8:30 because I was bored. Not sure he appreciated that, but until I start sleeping at normal times again, he'll just have to deal. =D It's good to be home. Saturday, July 25, 2009. Monday, July 20, 2009.

Turkey or Bust: The Communists!
http://maeghaninturkey.blogspot.com/2009/07/communists.html
Welcome to my web diary documenting my year living in Istanbul, Turkey. Thursday, July 2, 2009. I nearly fell out of a moving van today fleeing the communists! I must admit, the statement was much more epic than the explanation. Carly, Juliana, and Valeria all leave tonight/tomorrow morning. I'm "sleeping" at Carly's house and going to the airport with her. I still find myself trying to make plans involving students who've been gone for a month. I can't imagine when it's only Valerio and I. 3 days.Ju...

Welcome to my web diary documenting my year living in Istanbul, Turkey. Wednesday, July 15, 2009. 10 Days and Counting. So for lack of anything better to do, I'm reading the Lufthansa restrictions on carry-on luggage and I'm finding them way more entertaining than they should be. Favorites include:. Items you cannot bring in your carry-on:. Okay, can someone please tell me the difference between a fake weapon and a false weapon? No sharp items, no blunt items. doesn't that rule out, like, everything?

http://maeghaninturkey.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Welcome to my web diary documenting my year living in Istanbul, Turkey. Monday, June 29, 2009. By the end of the week, all the other students will be gone. I cannot believe it. The last week has been all goodbyes. We've been shopping at the Grand Bazaar and Taksim. We took trips to Sultan Ahmet and Ortakoy (famous, touristy places). Now it's down to packing. Juliana just laughed at me. Tomorrow is more Grand Bazaar. I swear, if I get called the Spice Girls one more time. Friday, June 26, 2009. For us exc...

Welcome to my web diary documenting my year living in Istanbul, Turkey. Saturday, February 28, 2009. Here's a regular weekend breakfast at my house. Very Turkish. This is "reçel".

Turkey or Bust: September 2008
http://maeghaninturkey.blogspot.com/2008_09_01_archive.html
Welcome to my web diary documenting my year living in Istanbul, Turkey. Thursday, September 25, 2008. What exactly is Active Future Perfect Continuous? Answer, using the verb walk-. Will have been walking. Passive Past Simple with the verb sell? Two things to say today. Only two. (I'm thinking that if I say that, I won't go off in random directions like I usually do.) First, I met a Calgarian today. Way random, eh? So I'm coming out of the dining hall and a teacher stops me to talk. Me too. What part?

Turkey or Bust: December 2008
http://maeghaninturkey.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html
Welcome to my web diary documenting my year living in Istanbul, Turkey. Tuesday, December 30, 2008. İstanbul Snow = Charlie Chaplin Style Fun. So we got like, 1 cm of snow last night. This wreaked havoc on the city. And made my ride to school the best morning ever. I saw busses stopped with passengers getting out to push, taxis spinning their wheels in the snow, cars abandoned by the side of the road, vehicles unable to get up a hill about as steep as. oh wait, it wasn't steep at all! Good day. Also?
