How I did it: It wasn't all too hard to learn driving, actually...I signed up to a course, where I should've taken classes about rules, first-aid etc. I didn't really go there, to be honest, but just read the book and took the exam which I have passed...After that, it was time for driving lessons...I was sitting at the passenger seat while the teacher explained what all the things are for in the car, including steering wheel etc. Lol...I was told to st… Read how I did it…
How I did it: Alright, this is the third time I paint my room. Last time I did it, it was in 2007, I guess. I had painted it with two tones of pink with a tiny wall striped with different tones of pink, white, black and gray.

Just at the beginning of October, I moved to Germany from Turkey and since then, I’m seriously living in a foreign country! I’ll sign some more papers today about my apartment and will have to tell the Hamburg office that I officially own a place to live in their city now, but hey, I can accept this goal as done?!
It’s hard though, that’s for sure, as I seriously miss my home. And being guided by my parents and my cat and my habits and everything…
