Unfortunately, the things I was curious about growing up did not help me in my daily life. I was a very bad student in elementary and high school, but I used to memorize songs very well, and I still memorize and remember songs from that time.I remember that one day my mom and I were on a long-distance car ride, and I was probably reciting the ten or twentieth song—my mother turned to me and said, "I wish you'd memorized a formula or two instead of memorizing them." The woman is right!&nbsp;<img data-fr-image-pasted="true" src="https://images.aposto.com/2022/6/3/1658357773503.jpeg" width="550" style="display: block; vertical-align: top; margin: 5px auto; text-align: center; width: 100%; max-width: 550px; border-style: none; position: relative; cursor: pointer; padding: 0px 1px; box-sizing: border-box;" ratio="1.50" fr-original-style="display: block; vertical-align: top; margin: 5px auto; text-align: center; width: 100%; max-width: 550px;" fr-original-class="fr-draggable"> 👩‍🎤 Nilüfer on the stage at Aylak Kadıköy<hr fr-original-style="" style="height: 0px; overflow: visible; border-bottom-style: none; clear: both; -webkit-user-select: none; break-after: page; box-sizing: border-box;">What I admire is what is in the details for me, which is not usually noticed by everyone. I admire the details in the craftsmanship of unknown artists. Maybe the reason why I admire puppet making, and people who are interested in puppetry comes from my father.&nbsp;I admire the workmanship. I admire humility. I admire unrequited love, caring for people, and being kind. I admire relationships and love. What I actually admire is the human condition.To be more specific, I'm a fan of&nbsp;<a fr-original-style="" href="https://www.instagram.com/nikkiglaser/" rel="noopener noreferrer" style="color: rgb(9, 9, 9); text-decoration: none; background-color: transparent; outline: none; cursor: pointer; transition: color 0.3s ease 0s; touch-action: manipulation; -webkit-user-select: auto; box-sizing: border-box;" target="_blank">Nikki Glaser</a>. I love both her stand-up and her new show, Welcome Home&nbsp;Nikki Glaser, and I want to do things like she does. I think my biggest admiration is towards comedians. Since I also do stand-up, the fact that someone else is doing different things on stage affects me very deeply.&nbsp;<img data-fr-image-pasted="true" src="https://images.aposto.com/2022/6/3/1658357752344.jpeg" width="550" style="display: block; vertical-align: top; margin: 5px auto; text-align: center; width: 100%; max-width: 550px; border-style: none; position: relative; cursor: pointer; padding: 0px 1px; box-sizing: border-box;" ratio="1.78" fr-original-style="display: block; vertical-align: top; margin: 5px auto; text-align: center; width: 100%; max-width: 550px;" fr-original-class="fr-draggable">📼 Welcome Home Nikki Glaser<hr fr-original-style="" style="height: 0px; overflow: visible; border-bottom-style: none; clear: both; -webkit-user-select: none; break-after: page; box-sizing: border-box;"><a fr-original-style="" href="https://www.instagram.com/roryscovel/" rel="noopener noreferrer" style="color: rgb(9, 9, 9); text-decoration: none; background-color: transparent; outline: none; cursor: pointer; transition: color 0.3s ease 0s; touch-action: manipulation; -webkit-user-select: auto; box-sizing: border-box;" target="_blank">Rory Scovel</a>&nbsp;is an example of this. I had the chance to watch him live in Atlanta. What the man improvises on stage is incredible. We can call him one of the comedy geniuses.Another person I admire is&nbsp;<a fr-original-style="" href="https://sgs.khas.edu.tr/en/academic/3216" rel="noopener noreferrer" style="color: rgb(9, 9, 9); text-decoration: none; background-color: transparent; outline: none; cursor: pointer; transition: color 0.3s ease 0s; touch-action: manipulation; -webkit-user-select: auto; box-sizing: border-box;" target="_blank">Dilek Cindoğlu</a>. She is an academic, professor and a mother who raised her daughter as a single-mother. The fact that she was able to run both her business life and her child's teenage years at the same time makes me wonder if she's a superhero.<a fr-original-style="" href="https://www.instagram.com/halukyucetempo/" rel="noopener noreferrer" style="color: rgb(9, 9, 9); text-decoration: none; background-color: transparent; outline: none; cursor: pointer; transition: color 0.3s ease 0s; touch-action: manipulation; -webkit-user-select: auto; box-sizing: border-box;" target="_blank">Haluk Yüce</a>&nbsp;is another person I admire.&nbsp;<img data-fr-image-pasted="true" src="https://images.aposto.com/2022/6/3/1658357720395.jpeg" width="550" style="display: block; vertical-align: top; margin: 5px auto; text-align: center; width: 100%; max-width: 550px; border-style: none; position: relative; cursor: pointer; padding: 0px 1px; box-sizing: border-box;" ratio="1.00" fr-original-style="display: block; vertical-align: top; margin: 5px auto; text-align: center; width: 100%; max-width: 550px;" fr-original-class="fr-draggable">👑 The artwork for&nbsp;Nilüfer's show at Tiyatro Tempo<hr fr-original-style="" style="height: 0px; overflow: visible; border-bottom-style: none; clear: both; -webkit-user-select: none; break-after: page; box-sizing: border-box;">For those who don't know, Dilek and Haluk are my parents. Maybe it's a bit boring to admire your parents, but I think their personality traits and values, as well as the divorce they went through, had a huge impact on who I am today. It seems like everything has began with my admiration and respect towards them.To be honest, the universe I was a fan of when I was little was of with the person whom I fell in love with. I used to fantasize about the boy I liked back then, and write in my diary about him and about us. Not much has changed. Still, when I like someone a lot, the pages of my notebook are filled with that person and I think about that person before I go to bed… Can we admire love too?How does the things that admire Nilüfer affects her?A lot! Like I said, when I admire something, I want to know everything about it. For example, I know too much detailed information about Nikki Glaser that if I really met her, I wouldn't be her friend. I follow on Instagram; I listen to her podcast, which she broadcasts four days a week. That's why, after some point, the people I admire become a very important part of my life. It affects my inner world, and how I think. As a result, my productions are undoubtedly affected.When examining the things and people I admire, I examine them in such a way that I can benefit from them and learn the details that I can apply to myself. I am currently reading a book about the comedian&nbsp;<a fr-original-style="" href="https://www.instagram.com/steveallenlbc/" rel="noopener noreferrer" style="color: rgb(9, 9, 9); text-decoration: none; background-color: transparent; outline: none; cursor: pointer; transition: color 0.3s ease 0s; touch-action: manipulation; -webkit-user-select: auto; box-sizing: border-box;" target="_blank">Steve Allen</a>, who created the talk show format, and this book has made an incredible contribution to my current project.<img data-fr-image-pasted="true" src="https://images.aposto.com/2022/6/3/1658357698224.png" width="550" style="display: block; vertical-align: top; margin: 5px auto; text-align: center; width: 100%; max-width: 550px; border-style: none; position: relative; cursor: pointer; padding: 0px 1px; box-sizing: border-box;" ratio="1.36" fr-original-style="display: block; vertical-align: top; margin: 5px auto; text-align: center; width: 100%; max-width: 550px;" fr-original-class="fr-draggable">🎙 Steve Allen at The Tonight Show 🧷 Source: Shutter Stock<hr fr-original-style="" style="height: 0px; overflow: visible; border-bottom-style: none; clear: both; -webkit-user-select: none; break-after: page; box-sizing: border-box;">I think it's important to be a fan of something. After all, a lot of people before us tried what we wanted to do. If we can learn from them, why not? Maybe at some point the people I admire are starting to become something like my mentors. Because even though we have never met, these people have a significant impact on my life and my productions.Does the things you admire is in relation with your stand-up content?When it comes to performance, I think it is something that develops a bit more individually. Of course, I'm interested in the way people whose work I like: be it their stage presence, writing their jokes, and the way they perform their work in general, and I want to get something from them. But because the performance is so individual—especially in stand-up—something falls into place when you go on stage.For example, I always have in mind to take up more space on the stage, to play bigger, to try different things and to have fun. However, I think that I can achieve these by doing and working on my own. Maybe one day I can see the people I admire as a guardian angel and come to many different places with the rituals I invite to be with me on stage and guide me… but I don't think it directly affects my performance at the moment.&nbsp;<img data-fr-image-pasted="true" src="https://images.aposto.com/2022/6/3/1658357837110.png" width="550" style="display: block; vertical-align: top; margin: 5px auto; text-align: center; width: 100%; max-width: 550px; border-style: none; position: relative; cursor: pointer; padding: 0px 1px; box-sizing: border-box;" ratio="1.00" fr-original-style="display: block; vertical-align: top; margin: 5px auto; text-align: center; width: 100%; max-width: 550px;" fr-original-class="fr-draggable">📞 Hi, how's there?<hr fr-original-style="" style="height: 0px; overflow: visible; border-bottom-style: none; clear: both; -webkit-user-select: none; break-after: page; box-sizing: border-box;">Of course, we can't ignore them, as they indirectly affect my approach to work and my motivation when I'm feeling low on some days. But I guess I can't give a clear answer since it is a very personal journey of a comedian in the stand-up scene.
