My Motto
Be compassionate to the needy, Neither squander wealth nor hoard it. Never lose your sense of shame, if questions are asked of you, answer them frankly but do not ask too many yourself. Be manly and of good cheer. Never kill a foe who is begging for mercy and be ever loyal in love
Own your own way
Do Not Go Where The Path May Lead, Go Instead Where There Is No Path And LEAVE a TRAIL ....

To Study At School or To Have a Job
It has been argued these days that many children are forced to stay at school and study subjects that will be little value to them in the future. These children may disrupt the education of the majority and should be allowed to leave school early to find themselves a job. Education is the biggest matter that needs to be questioned for societies to asnwer and to be appleıd properly. It is impossible for societies to have totally witted youngs or individuals so, that is very naturel to have some lazy or rebellious students. I think there is no use of forcing these kids to go to school everyday despite their unwillingness. The best thing that can be done might allow those children to have some jobs considering their interest and abilities.And also If we want these children to have a profession we should let them decide what they want instead of pushing them into the way where we want them to go. Besides these, everyone cannot be white collar workers, someone needs to be blue collar workers that the system can run without trouble.

Make up Course, God damn it
I am supposed to be off today but somebody told me that she had wanted to have make up course to understand English grammer better than others and I accepted it by thinking that it would be just a few hours so i would still be off, I thought working ,even if it is just a few hours, is better than sleeping at home. However now I am at work and I cannot do what I plan because my student who wants to have make up course is not here and i do not think she will come so i feel myself as a donkey which carries its pack on his back and wake up in all mornings of the week and weekend. I used to come to believe people when I was student and I used to have strong beliefs about people but now I perish myself whenever I want to be optimistic. I cannot hope anything good about this life, people should respect each other. Ok, it is right they pay money for this language education but I am not anybody`s slave or villein to go and come when desired. Working and Producing make me happy and healtier but seen as an middle age slave does makes me crazy. I hate people living and feeding themselves carelessly in this country, I do hate people earning money in this country and who do not pay their taxes, yet now I am one of them I am a capitalism`s modern slave. let me explain you how :-( . I work in a company in which speaking English is taught, "The boss" ask me to sign a two years contract to provide me insurance and to give my legal rights to me and I say that I do not think to work here for a long time. He, by regarding this, offered me to give a work without the job and life safety, but the most painful side is that I have to accept this offer as I need money and I am subjected to a stupid exam to gain my right in Turkey. I am an English teacher but maths and science are asked to me even if I do not have any further education on them, they do not ask me even one English word but they ,unblushingly, can easily complain about the poor quality of language education in this country.
"VIVA LA TURQUIE"
So many researches are done in this fuckin` country to show its power, politicians and generals blackmail other countries showing the fake, nominal power of the army but they are still not aware of the importance of the education. Education is the foot of everything, if you educate your youth, you can do everything whatever you want. Germany is the biggest example of this, they were defeated two times in world wars but we should remember that 99 % of the population were literate at that time while we have just 15 % literate people. This is what I mean they didnt ignore to educate the citizens from HANSEL to GRATEL. NOW They are one of the most powerful ecomomy in this fuckin` world.

HOW DO WE TEACH OR LEARN?
Teaching or in other word education is one of the most important key of a nation or the whole world as we can exist and develop the life on earth via it so it can be infered that life would be so hard without education. Considering these brief information, we can easily claim that a life without education cannot be thought or even dreamed.
For reaching our aims in education, we have to have some good teaching techniques for educating the people who are candidates to dedicate themselves for the future generation. Unlike the most common belief, being a teacher is not so easy. On the contrary, i think it is one of the most difficult profession on earth and it needs to be dealt with carefully. Of course we should be expert and give importance to that job so we are to be ready for doing this crucial task. We can talk about so many teaching methods here such as generative grammer method that gives grammer more than daily usage and information or we can mention about silent way method or any others. I think it will be useless thing to talk or discuss about what is going to be used while teaching because as an experinced english learner and a teacher i am sure about that education should be in the way that the students want.
According to my experiences, using an exact method is one of the key point of failure. Here is the explanation. We can make a resemblence between plants and students if the students are plants so we are the farmers and we should water them regularly and give the necessary items to the plants to provide them enough time and power to grow. All students are different kinds of plant, they have different personalities so we should have different medicine to get make them better when they need us, age is not so important and this subject is out of the word here, students can be at their six or sixty, the aim is to teach them perfectly. To me the best technique in teaching is knowing the student and the ability to provide the necessary knowledge them because if you do this both sides takes pleasure from what they want and they have desire to teach and to be taught. A smiling face is the secret for opening the locked doors to the teacher. İf we need to give an example, this is great; think about a student who is intellegent but lazy. How can we take his attention ? First we should be aware of why he is here and what he wants and then we should know what kind of subjects he likes so we can prepare a proper plan for him for example we present the subject hoe he likes, i must note that if we have a large class we should of course apply this by giving importance to majority`s attention.
In short i believe in that success is inevitable for the determined student and motivated teacher.

Üzülme, dert etme can.
Görebiliyorsan, dokunabiliyorsan, nefes alabiliyorsan, yürüyebiliyorsan ne mutlu sana.
Elinde olmayanları söyleme bana.
Elinde olanlardan bahset can.
Üzülme.
Geceler hep kimsesiz mi geçecek?
Gidenler dönmeyecek mi?
Yitirdiğin her ne ise; bir bakarsın yağmurlu bir gecede veya bir bahar sabahında karşına çıkmış.
Bil ki, güzellikler de var bu hayatta.
Gel Git’lerin olmadığı bir hayat düşünebilir misin?
Hüzün olgunlaştırır,
Kaybetmek sabrı öğretir.
