A TRUTH

           Sometimes we think only ourselves, but sometimes our friends become more importent than ourselves. This video , I think, is the best example of this. In this video there are dolls that are used for killing people. But these dolls are alive in this video.They have souls, too.The man is killing them and one of them escapes due to its friend's help. It has , however, nothing to do. It is too little to beat the man.  The man goes on killing its friend. There are almost four other dolls. The doll that escaped does the same thing as the man does. It pricks itself with a needle and the man feels that pain. But he goes on pricking the dolls. Then the doll having escaped picks the needle into its heart and the man dies, but the doll dies , too. This must be a lesson for us. Always we think ourselves. But there friends of us.We should take care of them. Real friends do like this. We sacrifices something for their brothers  and sisters. I think I do the samething. Because I would rather die than live without him/her. You think live will continue as if nothing happened? you are wrong.

error correction

1-When I first heard that I had been accepted to Middle East Technical University, I was disappointed because I did not like Ankara. But my opinions have changed over time  because Middle East Technical University is a really different world in Ankara. 2- It has been only a month since I came here. But I got used to this environment because, first of all, people from all of ages respect each other here. 3- I love Ankara, I love my dormitory, I love my new friends, I love my department, and I am content with everything that belongs to METU. 4- If someone wants to walk, he or she can go and walk. And it is a nice place to go and meet with my friends.  5- We can easily see this by watching TV, surfing on the Internet or maybe just looking around us. There are many people getting graduated from different kinds of universities but they are not even able to know what is going on around them or they do not even try to find good ways to improve the countries where they live.

ENTRY III


                                          THE REAL ONE


          To me, a university should provide its students lots of things. Social and sportif facilities, advanced education sytems, enough freedom are among these tings. It should provide nature not consructures. Student can learn what life is , how beautiful life is. There is an environment where student can learn how to live, how to maintain their lifes. I should be able to learn everything I need in my life. Student can learn what they want. Educators should not force the student to learn an information that the student does not want. All living things have different abilities and interests. So, university should give this chance to them. We all are diffrent persons. World needs to have lots of different types of characteristics not one type. If a university provide these chances to the student, each person can be entrepreneur. It helps country’s progress.

            I think METU has some of these. One of them is the natural environment. There lots of trees and green. There is fresh air due to this fact. Students can take fresh breath and can fresh their brains. This is one fact. The other is that there is a big technopolis. Students can take advantage of it. They can grow themselves up as an entreprneur.

JOURNAL ENTRY 2


                             IDEAS ABOUT MY METU LIFE

Being  a  METU   student.  I  think  it  is  normal.  İt  is  just  a  univarsity,  to
me.  But ,  of  course,  it  is  better  than  some  others.  I  can  not  deny  this fact.  When  I  gained  METU,  I  had  no  happiness  or  unhappiness.  There  was nothing.  My  heart  did  not  beat  faster  or  there  was  no  excitement. Everything  was  going  on  as  it  was  in  normal.  So  there  is  no  difference. But  maybe  the  lectures  are  more  hard.
I  am  happy  here,  maybe  my  career  will  be  better.  İt  is  far  from  the madding  crowd.  İt  is  far  from  family.  But  this  one  is ,  on  the  other hand,  a  reason  for  unhappiness  to  me,  too.  I  missed  mom’s  meals.  I  am hungry.  İt  is  a  challenge,  I think.  And  I missed  my  pc  and  bed.  I can not listen  to  music  whenever  I  want.  Music  is  the  nutrition  of  our  souls  and our  brains.  I can   concenrate  on  nothing  without  listening  music.  İt  is my gasoline I think.
I am  trying  to  cop  with  this  challenges.  I am  going  always  dormitory’s computer  lab. So  usually  I don’t  study  anything , to be honest.  But  by  this way,  I can  listen  to  music  and  I  can  forget  all  about bad things. This is the best feeling.  I  can  concenrate  on  my  lectures. And now I am listening music again. Maybe  listening  music  can  be  a homework. It  can  be  more  usefull for us,  I think.  Our  listening  and  understanding  skills  can  be  improved. But  all of  these  are  my  ideas . My  ideas  for  me.
