Great quizzes (and definitely not about your love life..)

Surfing around, I ran into this beautiful blog and took the quiz being talked about. Than couldn't help myself and tried a bunch of other quizzes. Really enjoyable, I hope they put great other ones from time to time. Really...

Dusuk belli kotlarin demode olmasinin disindaki zararlari No:1 / Bads of low-waist jeans other than they are out of fashion No.1

Bugun isyerimden 100 metre kadar uzakliktaki harika Corba&Ekmek'e gittim. Corbami ictim, tatlimi yedim, hesabi istedim. Hersey harika gidiyordu ki pantolonumun sag arka cebindeki paraya gayet rahat bir sekilde uzanmam ve de aradigim 20 lirayi bulamamamla, hatta sol arka cebimdeki diger 20 lira'nin da dusmek uzere oldugunu farketmemle hayal kirikligina ugradim. Cebin konumu vucudunun yururken olabilecek en hareketli yerinde olmasi sacma elbette, sonuc olarak yedigim yemek bana mutevazi bir raki-meze-balik fiyatina malolmus oldu... / I went to Corba&Ekmek for lunch today, about 100 meters from where I work. Had my soup and apple pie, ordered the bill. Everything was very good until I reached my back pocket on the right and felt nothing instead of 20 liras banknote, and, reached the back pocket on the left and there was my other 20 liras just about to jump out. Well, where the back pockets are is the most moving part of the body, which makes stupid to use as actual pockets, and the design eventually made me pay a modest raki-appetizer-fish amount of money for soup and apple pie... (FYI, 20 Turkish liras makes about 17 US dollars)

Lif kabagiyla taze bir baslangic... / A fresh start with luffa sponge...

Once burada gorup heveslendim, sonra Imece Evi'ni buldum, onlar da bana tohum yolladilar, simdi tohumlari ektim, bakalim ne zaman banyo yapabilecegim kendi yetistirdigim liflerimle... / Saw here first, than found Imece Evi and they sent me seeds, and I recently seeded them, I can't wait to bathe with my own home made luffas...

Stage 1

Stage 2
Iste boyle gorunuyorlar, karpuz cekirdegine benziyor ama yuzeyleri duz ve mat. / This is how they look like, resembling watermelon seeds, but they are flat and matt on the surfaces.

Stage 3
Icindekiler afiyetle yenmis kurabiye paketi, tohumlarimi filizlendirmek icin uygun. / Deliciously emptied cookie pack, ideal for the seedlings to become.

Tohumlar yesermeye hazir. Herhangi bir aksilige karsi uc tohumu sakladim. / Seeds are ready to sprout. I saved three seeds in case everything won't be alright.
