[update in] Erkan now has a car!

My parents decided to buy me a car. You see my black Hyundai Getz with my first navigator, Hakan. I have been driving for three days and so far no casualties.
Driving has always been one of the alien human practices for me. Like swimming or riding a bike i have never thought of driving and apart from rare occasions in which I showed my parents that i could indeed drive, i have never driven.
Well times change. I move to a new campus which is far away from where I live. For the last six years, I have lived within the walking distance to the campus. But of course i was still planning public transportation and inter-campus shuttle sistem at Bilgi but my parents insisted and i said why not this time. Anyway, let me go for a ride:p
-update- in the very beginning of my ride, i crashed slightly a parked car, causing some scratches. Dad thinks this happened because i wanted to give way to a car though it was my way to go, i don't know how exactly he imagined this- he is out of town, lecturing happened thru phone- but the fact is that i attempted to salute a friend whom I haven't seen for ages and when I somehow lost control:p- Anyway, everything is under control. i am back at my place and planning to have a very productive night-

congratulations. Where will you park your car? You well know the Turkish customs about the new possessions. Anyway i will recognize your car and leave my mark on it.
