Cities I Want To Go

I am just 17 years old and my opportunities are limited. One of my dreams is to travel the world. In this blog, I will write the cities I want to go to. If I read this in the future, I will understand what I am doing. Seoul is the city I want to go to the most. Seoul is a city with an abundance of natural beauty and technology everywhere. No country has such advanced technology as there. They use their resources very well. This city is beyond my dreams. I want to see the Han river most in Seoul. I want to have a cup of coffee on the han river one morning. It looks very inspiring. The biggest reason why I want to go to this city is that the music culture there is very developed and different from other music. It would be nice to learn their music. I hope it will. I used to watch english movies when I was 12. I especially loved the "Sherlock" series. I always wondered because the series took place in London. London has always been the city of contrasts in my mind. Part of the c

Iliad

I love mythology, especially Greek mythology. I suddenly thought of Iliad while reading a text about Pandora's Box at school. Poems in the Iliad passed down from ancient greek. The Iliad is not actually a book. We collected the records we found and turned them into a book. This is why some people say that not all of the poems in the Iliad belong to Homeros. There are many opinions on this. But that's all we have. In the Iliad, a 51-day part of the Trojan War, which lasted for nine years, is told.  The Trojan War is a war of the gods as well as of the people.The gods supported the people who gave them the most offering, and they argued many times at Olympia.They even setted traps for each other. I think the most important character in the event was Helen. Helen is the only daughter of Zeus born of a mortal woman. Helen is the most beautiful woman in the world and is married to Menelaus. Helen escapes with Paris and causes the Trojan War. For a simple reason for us, a lot of warr

Comparing Myself

When I was a little kid, I was really curious. I was questioning why I existed with my small brain and I had no answer. I still don't have an answer.  I want to compare my childhood and today in this blog. I was very brave when I was kid. But these days I'm afraid of many things. I can't tell my future dreams to anyone. I guess it could be the most impacting my life. B ut i realized why.  No one I told my dream to believed me. This is quite traumatic for a small child. Even my family doesn't know my dreams because of these events.  I don't have a method to get rid of it unfortunately.😀 When i was a kid i could ask anything. Even back then, my questions were strange for people. B ut nowadays, when I ask a question about God, about the universe, they immediately say "tövbe tövbe". Questioning isn't that bad. I felt really free in those days.  I feel like this body doesn't belong to me.I t all sounds so ridiculous. Nothing I do makes any sense. E

Methods

I try very hard to be a planned person. I am persistently trying to improve myself. But sometimes ı get tired.Then I don't want to do anything. Lots of hobbies and homework to do... I just want time to stop. This has been getting frustrating lately. I've been a negligent person. I had to get rid of it and found a method. It's called "just 5 minutes".  Inner voice: I'm not in the mood to do homework.  Brain: Just do it for 5 minutes. we'll think later. Of course, I continue when I start doing homework. I learned this method from a youtuber that I love. I discovered this method at a time when everything was going bad for me. In fact, I didn't even want to write this blog. Funny but i used the method. It works.  About 3 years ago, a teacher of mine suggested a similar method. My teacher called that method "sit at the table".  If you need to read a book, just take your book, sit at the table, and start reading. Don't think about anything. Jus

Plan A Day

It's better for you to use a agenda but you don't have to. You can also use a notebook you designed yourself. When I wake up in the morning or before I go to bed at night, I think about what I need to do that day. Then i write them in order of priority.  The biggest mistake I made was planning on the clock. If I have to do that job at 6, I do it at 7. Because then I am available. This is annoying. Instead, I started to write about how long it would take to do that job. "read a book ~ 30 minutes " like this.  So I am more free. This is more efficient than other ways. Another mistake I made was trying to do all the job that day. I was very upset when I couldn't.You don't have to do all the work. If you can't finish, continue the next day. Then I realized myself and started making a more realistic to-do list.  Another point you should not forget is that a person cannot work for 4 hours continuously. Create free times. As you get to know yourself, you will cr

Memorize Words

I've been learning Korean for a year. I noticed a few things about learning language at this time. ADOPT THE LANGUAGE YOU LEARN TO YOUR LÄ°FE! 1. Categorize words I am using vocabulary notebook. If i learning words about the kitchen i write the words in that part. If it's about class, i'm writting to the "school" part.  I think it is more efficient to see similar words together. 2. Use labels I write down the words i memorized on small papers. Then i am taping them to objects. This is a pencil and it says "pencil" in Korean. I do that with all my pencils. I even wrote their colors. 3. Adopt the words to your mind Sorry but we can't tape every object. No problem there is another way. I use this a lot. "Run" is used as "달립니다" in sentences in Korean. The pronunciation of the word in Turkish is very strange. Like "dalmak" (diving) A man runs and dives into the pool in my mind. So, i think about it every time i hear th
