So right about now I'm wondering why I am no in Turkey. The answer to that question is that the Turkish embassy in LA is taking their marry old time with my visa approval. I didn't mind the waiting game at first, but now it is starting to get a little annoying.
Although it hasn't all been bad having to stay at home longer. I've had more time to spend with my family and friends. I've gotten to know the Japanese man who is renting out the guest room. I went to the first day of school at Wilson, and was constantly asked "What're you doing here? Aren't you supposed to be gone?" This was followed by a multitude of weird looks. Although hands down, my favorite thing that has happened in my prolonged stay in the states was Oregon State's 10-7 victory over the Wisonsin Badgers. Not only was it an amazing game, and it gave us Beaver fans something to celebrate, but I got to rub it in my 7th grade Science teacher's face, who has always gloated about how good the Badgers are.
Anyways. I expect to leave relatively soon, but that has been the story for the past 3 weeks. I was told that visa's were to be approved last Tuesday, but that didn't happen, so I still am in the dark as to when I will depart on my big adventure in Turkey.
