What happened on Thursday?
I was absent once again, yeah it was not a joke. I really blame myself every absent or late school day; hovewer, usuallly it is not my fault being absent, it is just the situation . This was not a different. When i left the work thursday morning, i realized that my back tire was flat. What a nice morning right. As you remember, that night and morning was heavy rainy. It was definitely my luck. I changed the tire but my clothes got wet though. Anyway, when i arrived the home it was 7 am. I was really cold. I took a shower and had triple blanket but it didnt work. When i woke up i felt better; on the other hand, it was 3.3o pm. While i was feeling sorry, i already wasted the day. I believe being absent or late, especially without telling or giving imformation about situation is disrespectful act to friends and teacher but you know i didnt mean it. Sorry guys once again, and hopefully ce ya guys on Monday

Movies in the morning
I love this cold and rainy weather if i plan to watch movie. Outside is dark and gloomy but that is better because you can focus on movie easily. I pick one horror and one action movies. The last house on the left is the horror one and i hope it is scary enough. Then i will watch G.I.JOE . When i was a kid i used to watch cartoon version of g.i.joe. After watching those movies hopfully i will sleep some. Last night one of the bussies night at work, i am so tired. Happy holliday everyone...

driver lisence, credit card, bills, $25, and lost valid
What reasons make people inattentive in their regular life? For example, when you leave home, normally you should take your valid, if you drive keys and driver id, or your cell phone. I found two different valids at the store this week. Imagine you lost your valid or things in your valid, how would you feel? Both valids have id and money in it, but there is not any phone number on who owns the valid. I thought the guy was rush when i found the first valid. Yesyerday morning the guy came and asked if he left his valid night before . I gave the valid and added that he should be careful next time because he had his green card in the valid. The second one is still in the store. The lady didnt come yet. She has many credit card, id, and some dollars. I didnt called the cops yet but if she doent come in a week , i will give the valid to cops. Then she will have to do many paper work to get it back. I felt sorry for both of the costumers. Carrying something as valid keys is like breathing,i mean you dont think about doing it, but you do it authomoticly. Something bothered me in that situation. When i found the valids, the first thing i thout about oh if there are some money in it. I dont care how much in it, and i definitely dont need that kind of money. But why i was curios about how much they had... So my advice is if you dont want to lose anything make your list, lets say three thing you have with you all the time, valid money and keys, count them all the time where you go or leave then you ll be safe :))

I am not a mean person!!!
You kow about my situation with my cuison that i was asking practical lie to ignore to see him. Some of my friends recomment and advice about that. I still doont belive it is a mean act ignoring to see him. Anyway i was at my other cuison house in brooklyn on monday night. We had great time . it is reality i convinced myself as believing i would see my cuison dougther. I didnt ask if they came together. She 7 years old and i couldnt meet yet. I realized they left her in Turkey. I was dissapointed. Last 7 years took a lot from my cuison such as he had white some hair haha :) So you know what did not change with him is his talking. He still talks toooo much and still looks people from sky. He asked if i had e mail and we should keep in touch in some way. i started laughing because we added each other on facebook couple mounths ago. I told one of my friends that call me at 11 pm. That was not cool but it worked. sorry guys i guess i am mean but little bit.

poem, author, then cheater...
I used to love writing years ago, now i am having trouble even i write with my native language. I know if i push myself harder and do more practice i would write better. When i was at sixth grade, i tried to write poem for competition between middle schools. I had done good job. My only mistake was i took help from my mom. After i finish the poet, i was so proud. The teacher told me i can not partcipate the competition. The reason was i cheated she said. I was upset and i explain that it is not possible. I acceped my mom helped me but it is not cheating. I still dont know why did she comment like that to my poem. Only thing that she believed she had read the same poem before because my mother may read the same poem before. She she never read any poem as we wrote. who knows maybe the teacher could not believe i could write that good

I need a practical execuse
I have been thinking about good lie to execuse. My cousin and his wife will be in newyork tonight. I have not seen him almost sevan years. I asked my mom if it is a rude. She said that i should keep in touch at least for couple hours. I ashamed because i really dont want to involved that kind of relative meeting. i am so confused. What i know is i dont like to talk to him or listen his old stories. He thinks he is the one that everyone has to be proud of him. If i meet with them that will be pain of... I will decide tonight what i will do. If any of you guys has believable lie just tell me. i will try eventhough i am not a good lier. The last thing, last seven years he never called or mailed me, what do you expect me to do? Actually, after i shared my feeling with you i felt better, this blog stuff is a kind of group theraphy :))))

Have you ever locked your keys in the car?
Sound comes funny, right? Last Wednesday morning, after work i went to shopping, and spent more than i expexted. Than I had a haircut. I was so sleepy. When i was on the way to the home i stopped for lottery tickets at gas station. I lost little bie. Then i played again. After losing i left the car third time locking door without taking keys. I realized keys are in the car when i was in the store. I was praying God to not see the doors locked. Anyway i asked for help from the cashiers. They gave me some equipment as screwdriver. I felt like thief. The worst thing was it was rainy. I got totally wet in 15 minutes. I tried both side doors. After 45 minutes i gave up. I called 911 wished they help me. After i explain what was happening she asked if any kid or pet is in the car. I replied "no" She asked any important medicine or staff is in the car. I had same answer. Then she asked the funniest question why i called them if it isnt emergency. I was shocked. Then i realize it was just a game. God was giving me good lesson. I was playing sctrachoff istead of going home. I thought i got the message :) In 5 minutes i could open the door by chance. I spent my 2 hours and $72. Haha i hope i really learnt some.

Last monday, my high school and college friend came from Pitsburg to visit me and to give some document to Turkish Embassy. I picked him fron La Guardia Airport on monday morning. We came back to Long Island and had a breakfast at Turkish restaurant. He told me he dont know any Turkish restaurant where he lives and he missed turkish food so much.
Then i dropped him to my home. While he was sleeping i was at the school. Before i left the school, he called me and said he was bored and i should rush. I was at home at 6:25. He said his couison is waiting us in Manhattan. I never drove in the city and it was 24 hours without sleeping for me. Anyway i accepted to go city. We spent 2 and half hour there. We went to cafe where is view was wonderful.
And we walked an hour at the streets. When we came back we lost. I still cannot understand how we found our way again. i just know i passed three different bridge and i paid three bridge fees. We were at home about 2:30 am. My friend woke up 7.30 after ten minutes he woke me up. We left home 8:30. We were lucky we didnt wait too much at embassy. we have done at 11:00 am. His flight was 9 oclock and i couldnt left him alone: one more absent at school :( I suggested him to go bronx zoo. I have been there once, for two years ago.
We took lots of pictures. when we were back at city it was 5:00 pm. We ate dinner at Dervis: another turkish restaurant but it was so expensive:wasting money, plus park. He wanted to buy baklava( most famous Turkish desert). We found the place easily because i barrow the gps from my roommate. I dropped him Jfk at 7.30. It was very nice to see one old friend: however, those 2 days made me exhausted. I am still tired and sleept :)

I miss you, mom.
I miss you mom,
There is something missing after you,
Thoughts are deep,
Being for away is as miserable as before.
You remember when i moved far for the first time,

We promised to make my future brillant,
Didn't we choose this way to da that?
So did it work?
No, but it would do.
I have been missing you mom.
I regret for many things that some i have done,
some i haven't,
You know i love to make you mad,
I love to be against to you,
to discuss things as a mature,
Now i would just be agree with you,
or i would support you,
Mom i really miss you.
I feel anger because not be able to chance the time,
If i am, i would wake up when you call me, first second,
I would not argue about dinner,
i would listen you carefully,
i would try to understand meaning of being parent,
Of course, we talk twice a week,
How about touching or hugging each other?
How about your delicious foods?
I want to ask you to how i look with my new t-shirt,
I miss you so much, mom. You know what,
I will surprise you soon.

Wrong day i chose to cut the classes
The day i cut the classes when i was hihg school 10th grade something happened very funny and stupid. That day i arreved th school 8 oclock. The class begins 9 oclock. I nefer thougt about cutting the classes that morning. SUddenly, i felt i didnt want to stay in class. Then i saw one of my close friend. I ask him to leave school to go theatre with me. He was ready and just said "lets do it" He added if we would play billard after movie. We were so excited because next step was escaping from school without seeing any teacher. I dont how it work in other countries but usually we have one or two teachers are on duty at school door and security at suchool garden's door and you cant leave without permission. When we left the school there werent anyone at both doors. After we crossed the road, we saw one of our friends. He asked where we were going to. I explained and asked him to come with us. We agreed to take a bus. When we reached the bus stop, we hit two moer friends. Same story went on. We all five planned to spend whole day together: first, we were going to go movie, then billard saloon, after have lunch at beach cafe, final at the game house for playing card games. I remember everything about that day as it happenned yesterday. We took off the bus and walk to the theatre. While we were walking, i asked my friend for extra cifarette. One other wanted too, and shouted "give me the lighter". Four of five guys were smoker in the group. When i was lighting my cigarette, someone shouted us "hey guys" I was surprised and tried to find which building and who shouted. My friend screamed "teacher Adnan!!!!" "Holly s..." the other. How can it be possible? What was he doing there? He was one of the dangerous, crazy and violation lover teacher of our teachers. If you have treouble with him "God bless you to graduation". We were scared. Then he told us to he wanted to talk with us. Our faces turned red and our hearts were trying to leave us. That was the last thing i was expecting. He was laughing when he asked us what we were doing there. He said he was so lucky because he cought us. He also mentioned he was busy and he had some work for us. He sent my friend and me to pay couple bills. It took almost one and half hours. When we have been back, i saw one billard saloon. I told my friend lets spend half an hour here because i felt the teacher would hold us for a while. We could not enjoy playing game. It looked teacher used the building as an office. When we arrived the office, we saw other two friends were washing the dishes at the kitchen. The last two were cleaning the room.The teacher was drinking tea. What a surprise. The day started very nice however contineued ugly. The teacher took our four hours. Guess what he said last? He hoped we go there often. We sais yeah, yeah. What a luck huh! My friend said "while there is life, there is hope, then" and we spent the rest of the day at beach cafe while we were loughing each other for our stupidness. By the way, the worst thing about that day was my classmates told me they have left the school afternoon because our teacher had bad haedache. lots of laugh

Titanic -My Heart Will Go On
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DHyJTpDFgc8
Every night in my dreams
I see you, I feel youThat is how I know you go on.
Far across the distanceand spaces between us
You have come to show you go on.
Near, Far,wherever you are,
I believe that the heart does go on.
Once more, you opened the door
And you're here in my heart,
and my heart will go on and on.
Love can touch us one time
and last for a lifetime
And never let go till we're gone.
Love was when I loved you,
one true time to hold on to
In my life we'll always go on.
Near, far, wherever you are,
I believe that the heart does go on.
Once more, you opened the door
And you're here in my heart,
and my heart will go on and on.
You're here, there's nothing I fear
And I know that my heart will go on.
We'll stay, forever this way
You are safe in my heart
and my heart will go on and on.
I love this song for many reasons. Lyrics complement with celins' voice. It hurts your heart and everyone can find someting from his/her life. Can anyone say that he never had broken heart? Is there any love without difficulties? Of course in dreams...
All day rain that makes me gloomy and emotional...

Hey, would you like to play ?
The game is about lie and truth. I played this game 2 years ago, and i just made up some parts ot the story, because i dont remember exactly. Anyway, I want you to help our friend Arthur to find Green Village. Many years ago, in the East Europe, before the navigation has been discovered, there was a man, Arthur who was walking to Green Village. Green Village was located near by Orange Village. People in both villages are very similar. Unless people who lived Green Village told the truth for every question. They never lied. On the other hand, people who live Orange Village never told truth, lied all the time, and Arthur knew that .When he was very close the villages, he got confused, because the road became two ways: One to Green Village, other to Orange Village. Luckily, he saw someone was standing around the road. Arthur thougth the guy could help him. The problem was how could Arthur trust the guy because Arthur has no idea which village the guy was from. Arthur has one chance to ask question. Now it is your turn to help him. How or what would you ask the guy to find out which way is for the Green Village. Dont forget the guy you ask to could tell lie or truth. Leave your answers as a comment, please. Have fun. First correct answer will be gifted :)))

Say Goodbye to My Exbestfriends
They were such family friends. They used to hang out with my father . I met them when i was 15. Then we were all together until last night. They even made my father cancer and tried to kill him couple times. I could not realize how dangerous they would be. They were with me at high school, university, i meant everywhere. I carried everyday one pack of them for ten years. I should lost my mind. Now i am promissing mysellf to be survival. Iam not going to be part of that game anymore. I am not a smoker anymore. Maybe, quitting will be tough or i will have to chew gums untill my jaw becomes tired. People keep saying that the first three days are so important. I believe i can make it. It should be a lot better than killing myself everyday. I hope time will be the strongest cure for this sickness. I will probably need a good luck and my real friends help. I am really sorry if i be mean or angry, or bitter to you in these myifficult days. I guess i will take profesional help if i fail to quit smoking...

Happy Feast!
One of the muslims religios festival, Ramadan Festival is on sunday. After a mouth fasting, peolpe eat their special meals for festival days. Sunday morning many people will go to mosque to pray together. After praying , young poeople kiss the elders hands and they put the hand their forehead. Then people exchange good wishes. One of the important action in festival is if there are some offended people, others try to reconcile them again, it usually works thgouh. The festival is for three days. Many people go on vocation, some go to their natives, some just stay and spend time with tv which has special programmes for festival. We used to visit our elders fisrt two days, and spend time vith them. Sometimes you can see some people just on festivals because of busy lives. Also it is very important to give some money to kids on festival. Its just same Hollaween, kids come to your house, they give you their good wishes, then you give some candy or money to make them happy. I coudnt fast this year but i love to celebrate the feast :)

Two games against to Greece
Dream team has to be ready for Turkey in 2010. Turkish National basketball team plays quarter final game against to Greece on friday for European Cup. Last several years basketball in Turkey developed very fast. Tuskish League is more quality now. Some Turkish players plays for NBA teams : Mehmet Okur= Utah Jazz, Hedo Turkoglu=Toronto Raptors. Teams can join 2010 World Cup if they are placed in one of the first four place at European Cup. I used to watch every single game of national team. However, i am having problem to get time now. Our team plays well at this tournement. They won six of their seven games. I hope they will win against our biggest rival Greece tomorrow. There is one more thing is very interesting, my favorite soccer team Galatasaray plays against one of the powerful Greece team Penathinaikos today, too. I wish good luck both our teams but fair play is more important. Anyway, We will win :)

Sometimes unconnected
I know, i shouldn't be writting one after an other. I have some problem with the connection. It will be fixed next week. Also i wrote "the treasure box" yesterday. Actually, i would like to share with you some news from my country, they are also related to our topics in the class. Two days ago, there was a big flood in Istanbul. 31 people died and many people injuried. It was improvidence of the government and the other high status people and also politicians. There is a river near by highway. Past years, they built new buldings, shopping centers, hotels etc. So they made the river smaller but they didn't think about possible flood or they just didnt want to think. Now politicians are fighting about whose mistakes are more. One of the paper which is best known to be close to the party in power says whatever happened is old government mistake. The other newspaper says no that was imporividence of present government. Who cares whose mistake was it? There were 31 death body. Maybe 31 members of different families. Young, old, middle age, women, men. Even if someone finds whose fault was, can you give those people life again. In my opinion, we Turkish people love dog fighting but you cant find anyone when the time for doing better. My anger is coming from i have lived in istanbul and i knew as other people who live in istanbul, there is some infrastructural problem. Ankara is the capital city, however, Turkey is maneged from Istanbul. Let us say what is New York for the USA, Istanbul is the same for Turkey. Probably, in couple weeks many people will forget those 31 death. And they will never talk about it until it happens again. What a shame for us.
The Lost Treasure
13 years ago, when i was at middle school, i decided to hide my treasure box under the ground in my grandfather's farm as a pirate. It was easy to find it anytime because i scratched "x" on tree. i counted the steps and put on the map. I also promised myself to i would never look for the box at least 2 years and never tell anyone about it. The box was carton. However, i covered it with plastic. Inside the box, there was a kind of glass box.
What was my treasure?
There were some pictures of my family and my first girlfriend. There were also some documents from school scuh as : the result of placement test which does show what place i took at the test between all schools in the city. I have written some letters for whoerver finds the box. Especially, i shared my thirteen years old feeling and thoughts. Then i put my favorite watch in the box. That was the most stupid thing i have done with the box.
So , what happened the box? Do i know where is it?
Unfortunately, following spring, there was a flood biggest ever. Every square at the farm was under water. Then when the water has gone, it left a feed high dirt. After that, i lost my box forever. I tried to dig sometimes in the past. I found the tree once. Then i stepped but wherever i dug , there was nothing. I still believe my box is there, and someone will find it out.
Notice: i guess that i also put some money in the box. :)
