the circle of love

Autumn is a lover who is waiting for his beloved one to come. He is desperate and crying. With every falling leaf, he loses his hope. His hopes are scattering all around and he has no one to gather them together. Rain damps leaves, actually their secret love letters. And the smell of their love comes to our nose. Rustling leaves are actually the sound of immortal but broken love.When I walk through a road in autumn, i remember all things i left behind. Things i have no chance to return. Things i have no power on anymore; but just missing and feeling regret for them.It is the end of youth and a step to die. The relief of no rush for worldly things. Just a time to quench your hunger for spirutual meaning. Some flames of youth twinkle in your eyes and your child innocence smiles you back.Despite not reminding joyful things, autumn has a realy special place in my life. A journey to myself. I explore my not spoken emotions and thougts

A person or a world without love is like a river without water. From the beginning of life and until the end of universe, love is with human and nature. But, what is love? For me, love is knowing how to look, seeing the other side of all creatures living or nonliving, feeling their souls, understanding why we are created and mistics of life and all religions. Of course, it has a wider and more changing meaning. But, the base of love is sacred because it is a God given emotion and ,so it is inborn actually. It is not like democracy or traditions. It is not given you by society or power, government. So maybe it has no insurance but it is the gate to our inner worlds, other dimension.You may feel love for sun’s arousal, a tree’s budding, leaf’s getting yellow. You can also love your deficiencies, inabilities, because all these things mean life and are given us to learn to live with them.When thought spirutally love is a complimentary of human, but just phsical love can make you feel ill and it will take a lot of thing from your soul. Just love because it is a part of universe, it is created just like us, as a living organism. Without it we now, wouldn’t have philophies, civilisations, knowledge… It is love that make man stand against challanges of life. So it is the power to live

Early in the morning, i was awaken by my intellectual grand-grand mother's WAND. She said she wanted to chat with Obama so i was expected to open the COMPUTER. Firstly, she made a call to him with her MOBİLE PHONE. And, Obama asked her ideas about recent UFOs news. Grandma began to cry and said '' I want FLOWERS not UFOs.'' At that moment my mother was chasing after white MOUSE that was making strange noises after midnight. Fortunately for little creature, it took my COAT as shelter from its killer.There the mouse began to write its BOOK about Armenian genocide which would be this years bestseller and award winning book. I decided to escape from this house and gain my money by playing TROMBONE in the streets and began to prepare my BAG. I would take my NOTEBOOK , but hard -faced mouse had already made it a delicious evening meal with her BABY. Just then, thanks God, my FRIEND came to my cry for help. While going my grandma was still shouting at me'' Find my HEADPHONES and then,you can go whichever hell you want.'' These were the last words i heard from that house.

Dear World,

How many centuries will this struggle last? Has it no end? How cruel people are! How difficult to tell anyone i am miserable. To feel as if i am rolling down a hell and slippering in a blank. Is there any worth to look the sky's eyes and for a colour that will change your sight? to be lost in the hotness of the sun and waiting for a bright , lieless smile...That is all. Floating along a guiet river and exhausted with rowing. Sentenced with my whole life. I am convicted to your smile, listen, what this broken heart is screaming to you. And ask where and when these tears are pouring.

economic crisis

Everybody is uneasy about current state of economy, but what has caused all this? Firstly, housing markets has a big role. Falling housing prices, shortage of finance and collapsing confidence have caused the economy to decline. big declines in the stock market reduce people’s wealth . Investment and consumer spending has fallen and so unemployment has risen. Also,this can be credited to loans. people give and receve loans higher than ones they can afford.Fannie May and Freddie Mac were the first to fall.They were two largest mortgage companies. Also falling were Lehman Brothers and Merill Lynch, two of largest banks in America one of which Lehman Brothers even survived through great depression. And finally was insurance giant AIG. All of them were allowed to go bankrupt. These recent events show that economy is not stable.It must be fixed in some way or another.This can result in a credit crisis which would cripple our economy and send us into deep recession.This is like a water in a dam. If there is a leak and you put your finger in it, the leak will stop, but it will build pressure so much that another leak will spring. Companies began struggling one by one and now whole financial system is in crisis.Since the economy is primarily based on a consumer and service economy unlike 1930s which was based o agriculture and manufacturing, i think if consumer confidence rises, everthing will be better. It wont be a depression but it wont feel good also.Turkish economy tries to pass through global crisis with minimum damage. Financial institutions and bodies were closely monitoring banking system and Turkey established a strong financial sector before crisis hit it.We can say the world is cautious about crisis because nobody wants to see another Great Depression

effective teacher

Teaching isn’t simply the task of giving information o academic subjects. Your personal characteristics and general culture knowledge also affect students learning.Knowing how to teach and making students aware of why they learn, that is making them concsious of learning process is important.We may say to this ” creating a vision”. A vision of world, a vision of philosophy, a vision of education, traditions, social life and most importantly a vision of themselves ” whom they are?” should be created. Students must find their own identity, they shouldn’t wrap into others identity or roles. So, to achieve this, teacher should be aware of his students ”’individuality” and approach according to this. Students aren’t ass burdened with knowledge.. Things about life also should be included. The most effective thing i learned from my English teacher was that. He still says me ”Everything isn’t just studying, learning subject stuffs, you will learn the importance of lifelong friendship and thrust”’ And, his mail adress he uses for us was ”’forever together”. Yes you may say it is impossible to keep in touch forever but why not try? Last week, he came Ankara (a surprise fr me) and called me” Well, do you know where i am now” and i said fondly ” hımm, in school, Siirt of course” he answered ” i am in Kızılay and wondering around”. I went crazy and breathlessly, canceling all my programs, i rushed to Kızılay. And i felt so refreshed after, lonely face of Ankara diminished for me.As for three gualities, i may say flexibility is indipensable. Everthing can not be perfect so being flexible is actually unavoidable.Also, enthusiasm of teacher affects students a lot. Even when a teacher doesn’t know a lot about subject, his effort makes us appreciate and admire him. Fairness, being friendly, holding high expectations for success, being aware of students needs, being patient, credibility, being encouraging and supportive, providing corrective feedback rather than mere critize, using creative ways for teaching,theatrical styles are needed if you want to be an effective teacher and help students learn better.
As for English teachers, the most noticeable thing is their warm interaction with students and sociability. i think this quality makes other teachers and students jealous of them. And, mostly classroom environment makes you feel at home so learning capacity of students is enhanced. But incorrect strategies can cost lifelong, noncurable effects on students. I can give an example of my teacher at high school. He was perfect at teaching strategies. He was so confident and even arrogant about himself that he was always putting himself forward as the ”creator of success”He said ” i am the best teacher so my students will be the most successful in the exam. To prove his aims, he made the students memorize all things and loaded his students with so much homework that they were bored with English. At first they studied a lot, but later when approaching the peak, they gave up. They just studied to finish homework, to get high grades not to learn sth. his claim to be the most successful caused his students 1 more year. A teacher who has a love for teaching can not do such things.
