last week or so

I've been quite busy as of late. Last weekend we had a group trip to Ayvalık and Pergamon, this Tuesday I took off to Istanbul to meet up with my friend Margaux who was passing through the city on a cruise with her family, and this Friday we had off from class, so of course I spent the day out with my friends.

in Turkey, they write odes to milk companies on the side of milk cartons. No, the Turkish does not translate to the English. And yes, it does make a little more sense than the English (but it's less poetic!)
