Houston, do you copy?

Salute, my precious friends. How are you? What have you been doing for the past few months? I have a huge list so I'll try to stick to some of the headlines for this catch-up entry. Feel free to tell your story in the comments =D

First of all, the reason behind my delay between my posts is the...ırr... actually I'm not really sure. Most probably Its the fuckin' heat wave around Istanbul - or maybe it is that writing this blog was a little get away from the last semesters work, and now that I'm literally FREE, which means I can find more creative ways to relax =)

Starting from where I left you, I was part of the event Intel GameX, kind of a LAN Party - Tournament thing. It was hosted inside this years Compex show, so it was the biggest public gaming event I have seen. The most important thing about this event is not what happened there, it is what I came home with. Every summer I put away my fluffy orange carpet but this year I found an incredible replacement =). I had much of a trouble to take that huge 2.50m*2.50m hard based poster but despite the inconvenience of my friends, MISSION ACCOMPLISHED! =D


More over, I started playing strategy games like Command and Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars, and StarCraft: BroodWar. The CnC3 is an incredible game with beautiful game play and graphics. Where as StarCraft is a lot fun to play with pals old pals =) - Unfortunately I had to delete both for storage space...


More over I attended 2 concerts this summer.... eventually I attended much more but at least I really enjoyed these two "Dream Theater" and "Within Temptation". 2 concerts single word: INCREDIBLE! You can see the pics from DT concert I took with my shitty cellular-cam. Also check out what I wrote to WT's GuestBook; "Thx for the amazing performance in Istanbul! WT was the solo reason for me being in this festival and I got more than I expected. It was an insult to schedule you guys to 6pm just before some freak show but anyways.... thank you soo much for coming to Istanbul, for this performance - seems like you enjoyed the crowd too...hope we meet again."


By the way, if you watched Transformers; "dude that was awesome =) " it really is "More Than Meets the Eye", If you were in a country like Germany where they don't show movies in their original languages... how bad for you, Go buy the BlueRay realase, get a PS3 to play and a full HD screen to watch that piece of CGI Heaven (Yes it was that good). Even though I watched on the cinema, I'm definately planning to watch it again frame-by-frame.


I won't get in to politics or future plans for this post, I'm planning to post another within the week. More fun is on the way ]:-D Stay connected..

hint for the next episode: I'm moving!
