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 :)

Tuesdays With Morrie

Hi guys,
I am going to suggest you an interesting book. You can read and understanad this book easily. It is also rich with vocabulary. The book's name is "Tuesdays With Morrie". It is written by Mitch Albom. I have read this book when i was Suffolk C C. I don't want to tell whole story.The summary is Morie is sociology profesor and Mitch's favorite profesor at college. They are very close friends. After Mitch's gradetion, they couldn't keep in touch, actually Mitch did not do. Mitch becomes very busy sport journalist. Morie is cought by fatal disease which named ALS or Lui Gerig disease. Mitch sees his old profesor on tv and hears about the disease. Then their last class and last lesson about life start on every tuesday. Morie teaches the reader many different topics from our lives, such as : culture, marriege, death, family etc. This book kind of dramatic, however it is very fascinating. Tuesdays With Morie was on the top seller list for weeks. In new edition, you can find after word from the autor for ten years after Morrie's death. I enjoyed and loved this book a lot when i read it two times. I hope you can find chance at least to check the book out.

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. :)
