Glad to be a women.


Being in Turkey I have experianced some different things. But last night was the first of the most shocking. Its called sünnet (circumsison.) In the muslum religon it is custom. And you can do it anywhere from age 4 to 10. But you must do it in between thoes times. And so we went to a sünnet celebration. And the boy was litteraly dressed like the picture. But also sat in a throne type thing (of corse all of our cameras were broken) and then there were clowns and all this kids class mates came. There was food and a huge cake and dancing and what not. It was all for little kıds though (like a birthday party for a seven year old that you have to go to.) But it was fun, I got a ballon hat and a pitchure with a clown and to eat blue cake! Life just doesnt get better! Celebrating a circumsion..
