Hi!

Win win situation... After a while, Ebru and his husband came together in the big hall. They were very happy while they were dancing together. They were always smiling, people were taking photos and clapping their hands.  After the dance was over, they attached a riband along the bride and the groom's necks and began to wait.  When I saw this, it did not make me any sense.

Pretty Little Liar       I am on the bus right now, and I am going to Istanbul. My sister insisted on me about coming to Istanbul. Whole the week, she sent ticket photos to me. I was not sure that go to home. So that I ignored them, but I was also want to go. Two days ago I certainly decided to go but there was a big problem. I could not find any ticket for Thursday evening when I went to coach station. I just found plane ticket but the price was so expensive. I called my father and he went to the ticket office for check the bus again. When both of us could not find for Thursday, I decided to go on Friday. So I told my father that, and he find a ticket on Friday and he bought it. Then I said him that not to say anything about it because I do not want to let my mother know it.     Today at 2p.m. I got on the bus and I am still on it. We are in Ordu I think.
