HOW MANY HOURS DO YOU SPEND ON YOUR COMPUTER EACH DAY? HOW MUCH TIME DO YOU SPEND 'SURFING' THE WEB?

● I know that I can use the computer on condition that I don’t spend my time a lot. Some parents don’t want to buy a computer for their children lest the children waste most of their time playing computer games, like my parents. Furthermore, the children who have a computer get used to playing or using the computer. Maybe I’m not used to playing but I can be used to it. I usually read the news and look at the Facebook. (Taha Genç)


●  This year I have left my computer but not forever, just for a year. My computer was always close at hand and I just took it for granted. I made a deal with my computer. I won't leave it anymore. All I know is I love my computer. Next year, I will lie in my bed with my computer. (İsmail Hakkı Özçelik)

● I'm not interested in technology but I like spending time on the internet. I usually look at imdb to follow movies and series. I rarely enter the facebook. However, I don't spend too much time. In addition ,I read newspaper and play game. I have membership in EkşiSözlük. I like reading the entries.(Aydan Gökçe Öztürk)

● There are five websites which I surf a lot. (forumdonanimhaber.com, facebook, twitter, hoxball.com and youtube) I spend one or two hours on my computer. I usually play games because I don’t have internet connection in the dormitory. When I am home, I surf a lot. I spend more than 3 hours surfing. I chat with some people or watch videos. I download movies or series.  (Kutay Erözcan)

●I use computer each day. But I have never calculated how much time I spend within a day. When there is an important match on TV, before the match , I look at sport websites which mention the match of day. If I wanna watch funny videos, a tv programme, an old match or listen to music, youtube is opened. If I wonder something which I don't know ,I don't have to say the website which I enter. I don't have a favorite website. But I like some of them. I spend approximately 4 hours on internet per day. (Can Kartal)

●I visit facebook most of the time..I think it is the best. It helps me be social. Then I visit markafoni. I caught up in markafoni:) Third, I visit the movie sites .I think they are very useful:) (Betül Kantarcıoğlu)

●The amount of time when I am in front  of the  computer might change .. Sometimes I can not stop. I can spend most of my time  during  a day or  some days. I spend  some of my time in front of the computer when I  visit a site that is suitable for my mood.  (Samiha Yanık)

●Hmmm..it varies.. I can honestly say I no longer count. On some days, I can say 12 hours(+), on other days I can say 8 or less. Some days I only turn it on once or twice depending on what I do that day. OK. This is very bad because it makes me antisocial. However, I am happy. It has many advantages. I think the biggest advantage is ordering food via the internet. I can’t live a day without internet. I listen to music, play games, and I visit Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, Flickr, Deviantart, Karaokeparty , forums..etc all the good stuff. Of course I always watch my favourite youtube videos as a guest. Internet has been a part of my every day life. I can stay awake all night long just to surf the net. My laptop is definitely suffering because of long hours. The internet has taken over our lives and now everything is at our fingertips. (Büşra Soltan)

WHO IS THE JOLLIEST PERSON YOU KNOW?DESCRIBE HIM OR HER.

●Adem Abi is the jolliest person I have ever seen.Adem Abi is a carefree man. For example: when I go to school , Adem Abi is sleeping then when I come back, he is sleeping again.I say: What are you doing in bed whole day Adem Abi?Adem Abi says: A man who was sleeping died and other man who was not sleeping died too. I say: Don't make me lough Adem Abiiii :D:DAdem abi is snappy as he is from Rize. He is an original man. He has original words and sentences. Fortunately our room has him. If we didn’t have him, we wouldn't be happy. Thanks Adem abi :D :D(Ali İzzet Damar)

● Tansu Tunçel is the jolliest person I’ve ever known.  He and his cousins ,  Ömür Cedimağar and Volkan Öge, shot a movie which is called ‘Patlak Sokaklar Gerzomat’. The film is so amusing. A few years ago, I watched their videos on Youtube. They sang French songs by changing the sounds into Turkish. They made me laugh. Then, they shot short movies which are called ‘Patlak Sokaklar’.  I can’t help laughing these movies. After that, they shot ‘Patlak Sokaklar Gerzomat’. They are really successful. On the other hand, Tansu Tunçel have been composing funny tweets since 2009. I always enjoy his humorous tweets. (Nurseza Okur)

●Of course Cem Yılmaz. He is the funniest man I’ve ever seen. He is short but his jokes are huge.  He has a big working brain. Everywhere he can make jokes. If you don’t laugh at him or smile, you must die. He always wears black and he hasn’t any hair. He has a different moustache. So he is like an ordinary person. He smokes three packages of cigarettes every day. (Mehmet Rakipoğlu)

●Cem Yılmaz is the jolliest person I have ever known. His jokes are very successful because he has a lot of knowledge. Consequently, a lot of people laugh at his jokes. In fact he is a very clever man and he knows how to make people laugh. If you watch Cem Yılmaz , you will certainly laugh. The opposite is impossible. (Seda Erdoğan)

● Charlie Chaplin is the funniest person I’ve ever known. His films are masterpieces. We are so lucky that we have Charlie Chaplin. (Batuhan Potur)

● Tolga Çevik is the jolliest person I’ve ever seen. Because he always makes jokes of high quality like my English teacher. ( edit: you bet??) Emre Tekin

●Tolga Çevik is the jolliest person I know. He is a comedian. But he is different from other comedians in our country. Because he has  different methods. He is a clever man and his jokes capture his intelligence. (Pınar Demir)

●My sister is the jolliest person I know. She is my first friend. Therefore my best memories are lived with her. Although we sometimes fight, we are very amused. Because even fighting with her is funny. In my opinion, she is the best person who makes me have fun. (Şeyda Sönmez)

●Aunt Zeynep is the jolliest person I have ever seen. She is my mother’s friend as well as she is our neighbor. She is smart and incredible. When I want to laugh, I go to her. She makes everybody laugh yet she doesn’t laugh. When I am with her, I get rid of my depressive mood. Even though she has got a lot of problems, she is an entertaining person. (Ayşegül Durur)

A MIRACLE IN A GLASS

●Julia Carter: Everybody must be careful. If you don't want to lose money , you keep away from miraculous things . There are a lot of advertisements about diets. For exp: You will get rid of fatty tissues!' and ' You will be thin and beautiful' . You shouldn't believe them. Although I am fat, I don't believe anybody. Dr.North was the most different man I had ever seen. After I had met him, I realized that he wasn't different from the other people..(Ayşegül Durur)

●Julia Carter: When I went to the office , I got so confused. I didn’t know what to say. Mr.North’ s liquid surprised me. I couldn’t believe such a miracle. No one can ever lose weight with a liquid. If you want to lose weight, you should do sport and diet.(Aydan Gökçe Öztürk)

●Julia Carter :I felt a little apprehension before going to Dr.North. When I saw his photos, I got relieved. However, I understood that I had made a mistake after I talked to him. Because his method is wrong and isn’t healthy. In addition, it is very expensive. And it is absurd! If I do exercise and eat healthy food, I can lose weight. (Şeyda Sönmez)

●Julia Carter: A few days ago, I went to a doctor in order to get rid of my weight. The doctor, Dr.North , gave me a drink and he added  "If you drink this diet nectar, you can eat whatever you want" . I was overcome with joy because I love eating :) Then, I realized that he avoided saying the disadvantages, the ingredients of the diet nectar and the cost. When I asked about the cost, he said that my weight was more important than the cost. Then, I said that I was on a budget, and he kicked me out. I was disappointed. It seems that he just wants money. I don't trust the dieticians anymore. If you want to be successful about something, you must trust yourself. I started exercising and eating healthy food. I believe that I'll be more beautiful than Lucille who saw me out J (Nurseza Okur)

 ●Smoker's Report by Dr.North: Do you really want to give up smoking without any pills, drugs and gums. Of course you want. But there is no way like this. You have to use drugs. Actually it is a powder which helps you to give up smoking. Keep reading and give up damn smoking. Mr. J. had tried to stop smoking since he was younger.Keep reading and give up damn smoking. Mr. J. had tried to stop smoking since he was younger.

"I started to smoke in high school due to my friends, they always ignored and casted me out. I thought how I could be friends with them. Then, one of them passed a cigarette to me. I considered if I took it, I would be cool and friend with them like most of the high schoolers. I didn't notice that I was making a mistake." One day Mr. J. saw an advertisement. He had been smoking for about 20 years and he knew that he shouldn't smoke anymore. He tried plenty of methods to give up smoking but he couldn't make it. Finally he tried this powder that was in an advertisement. Next, he managed it, he didn't smoke anymore."I had really hard times. I always wanted..." This was his last words. While we were interviewing, he had a heart attack and died. So he tried a lot, he thought he caught happiness. However, he passed away. Eventually, don't limit yourself! Never mind this stuff. Live the way you can feel better.(Ali Coşkun)

●Hi. I'm Dr.North. I will tell you something. Recently, a woman whose name was Julia came to my office and we talked about my diet schedule. She was influenced by me. Customers always want to buy something cheap. She liked my ixir and she asked: ''How much is this?''. I told her and then she was shocked by the price. I think this shouldn’t matter if you lose weight. If you don't like my style or my ixir price you don't have to buy it. I just do my job. I don't want to break any hearts. I earn money there. You can do whatever you want but you can not improve my plan or refute my technique. See you my customer…. or who the hell are you ? (Mehmet Rakipoğlu)

●Julia Carter:We might make wrong decisions towards our aim in excitement .For a moment, using the drugs might be wise, but, everyone should know it is nothing else but damage for our health. Why do we try this way when there are healthy ways? (Samiha Yanık)

●Julia Carter:When I saw Dr.North for the first time, I thought that he was handsome and very polite. After that we talked about his diet nectar. He talked very convincingly .But when we talked about nectar's cost, I realized that he put on an act. Because when I said that I couldn’t afford the diet, he officially drove me away. I think he squeezes money out of people.  (Pınar Demir)

●The Secret of the Glass by Dr.North: My glass includes vitamins and proteins which are enough for a person within a week. Besides , when you drink a glass , you feel yourself full .No matter what you eat ,you don't put on weight. Because thanks to my glass, you can't eat much. If you want to become thin easily, you mustn't be afraid of spending your money. This glass which is produced by technology will make you happyJ (Can Kartal)

DELLA'S DIARY

●Dear Diary, I saw my stepfather with a woman. I was shocked because of this situation. He kissed and hugged her. They weren’t like friends. Because they seemed so candid. My stepfather deceived my mother. I ran home and went to my room. I cried all night. I wanted to tell my mother. However, I didn’t. I think I’ll become insane. I decided to kill my stepfather. Then , I gave up committing the crime. Because my mother wouldn’t stand it. (Büşra Soltan)

●Dear Diary, I was fed up with discussions everyday. I don’t want to listen to my stepfather insult me. They don’t notice my life has changed. I can’t get along with anything because of a matter of life. My social worker, she thinks that my problem was out of the ordinary. However, it was very easy. (Ayşe Sadi)

● Dear Diary, my father didn’t call me again yesterday. I am very unhappy. My stepfather behaves badly towards me. He is also alcoholic. Besides, he beats my mother and me. He came home drunk yesterday. As usual, he beat my mother and he came near me and he started to beat me. Although my mother tried to, she couldn’t prevent it. He didn’t stop. When he went, my body had all become bruised. I went and sat on the floor of my closet. And I started to cry and pull out my hair. After that, I stopped and realized that this is a kind of disorder. I took the phone and called a social worker. I made an appointment. Today I went to the social worker. I realized that my disorder was out of the ordinary. That was why I was ashamed to tell it to him. Maybe one day I’ll be able to say. (Melikenur Balıkçı)

●Dear Diary,   my stepfather is a very bad person. He always treats me badly. My mother forced him to be married. We lived in poverty after the death of my father. My stepfather has a daughter. He loves his daughter so much.  They wanted me to help them at home. 2 years ago he wanted to marry me by force. But I ran away from home. Then the police brought me home. It was very difficult for me. They beat me more. Then I started to pull my hair out. After I escaped from the house, my mother didn’t like me. I am very worried. Today my stepsister lost her homework. She accused me. They beat me for the lost homework. (Hilal Karakaş)

●Dear Diary,   I am very upset these days. Everybody supposes that I am crazy. One of the problems is that I pull my hair out. Neither the social worker nor my stepfather knows this. I go and sit on the floor of my closet. I have a small light bulb there and I have a mirror. I touch the top of my head. However, the social worker doesn’t understand me. I won’t make an appointment with her again. She thinks that my incident is out of the ordinary. Eventually it isn’t. I will change after today. It’s the beginning of a new life. (Ömercan Pekteş)

●Dear Diary,  I feel very bad. I don’t know what I should do. Why did my father leave us? Why does my stepfather treat me badly? There are many similar questions in my mind. I enter my closet and pull out my hair. I hope that when I puu out my hair, these questions will go out of my brain. I want to get along with my stepfather. I’m worried I’ll damage myself. We live under the same roof but in different worlds. I can’t deal with these troubles. I need love. I am suffering. I can not tell my problem to anyone. I must go to the psychiatrist. Maybe he can help me. (Hilal Yılmaz)

●Dear Diary, today isn’t different from any other day. Everything is bad again. I am feeling lonely and I think nowadays I am in depression. I can’t continue my life under the same roof as my step father but my mother mustn’t be informed about that. She must continue to believe that I am happy. If she learns that I don’t like my stepfather, I will be more unhappy. I don’t want my mum to be unhappy because of me. I decided to leave home when I am an adult. Because I don’t like my stepfather. I don’t understand why my mum loves him. He gets on my nerves. I am afraid I have to stand him for my mum. And what’s more, my hair is less than yesterday. (Pınar Demir)

●Dear Diary, my stepfather is angry. He is always irritated. I don’t know how to deal with him. He doesn’t like me. I can’t get along with him. Unfortunately, I live under the same roof as him. Today I was so afraid of him that I broke down into tears. Because he shouted at me. I don’t like him. I made an appointment and went to the doctor. He said ‘ I had never encountered a problem like you.’ I got surprised and sad. He said ,’You are out of the ordinary.’ He provided me of a new psychiatrist and I went to him. He treated me well. (Betül Kantarcıoğlu)

● Dear Diary, I went to school as usual. Due to my hair and clothes, everybody thinks I’m crazy.I’m angry with htem and my mother. I hate everybody. Because everybody makes me feel embarrassed. My mum is guilty of everything. She knows her new husband is a very bad person. Despite knowing this situation, she doesn’t do anything. She disappoints me and she takes me for granted. I start losing my belief. (Tuğçe Şenbaş)

●Dear Diary, I had never encountered a situation which is worse. I couldn’t get along with my stepfather at all. I was sad but he didn’t mind. He badly influenced me. I was missing my biological father. I couldn’t explain my problems to anybody. I decided to make an appointment with a social worker. At first I couldn’t mention my problems which really disturbed me. Then our appointments helped me learn to deal with my problems. I no longer think about my stepfather. I put him aside. I just think about my life now. (Can Kartal)

● Dear Diary, Before I begin my words, I want to say that I am so upset. Because I had been to my social worker eight times in a month, but he didn’t understand my big problem. I wish he had understood me in the first session.  He finally did but he didn’t give me a solution which I had expected. He said to me ‘You must go to a psychiatrist.’ But I am not crazy. I won’t go there. He made me very angry and I ran away from him. When I arrived at home, I decided to leave home to live my life. I managed to live on my own without any help. Now I don’t pull my hair out and I have beautiful curly brown hair. (Mehmet Emin İpek)

● Dear Diary, I am unhappy with my stepfather. I can’t get along with him. He deceives my mother. I saw them together in our house. He saw me, too. He said to me ‘If you say anything to your mother, I can kill her.’ I am afraid of him. Thus, I don’t want to live under the same roof with him. I feel responsible for this situation. I must tell my mother but I can’t say anything to anyone. I cry every night in my wardrobe. I missed my biological father and I missed a real family. (Ali İzzet Damar)

● Dear Diary, today I went to the closet as usual. I sat down and I looked in the mirror. When I looked at my hair, I noticed my hair at the top. I felt bad. I thought about how I could cut my hair. A few minutes later, an idea came to my mind.’ Why don’t I use a wig?’. I just found a wig. Immediately I went to my closet and started to cut my hair. After cutting, I watched ‘Happy Tree Friends’ and now I will go to bed to sleep. (Emre Tekin)

● Dear Diary, one more day has passed and I am in silence. Therefore I continue to be unhappy. I don’t want anybody. I don’t want to hear anybody. I go to my room and I just sit in my closet. Today I broke down into tears there. Now I am writing tearfully. Tomorrow I have an appointment with the social worker. I don’t want to go. Because I am afraid. (Şeyda Sönmez)

● Dear Diary, you are my best friend. If you don’t understand me, nobody can. I don’t feel good nowadays. I am very alone. I miss my biological father. When I had a problem, I used to explain it to him, yet I don’t tell anymore. I don’t know where to go. I don’t want anything. My father used to pat my curly brown hair. If I don’t have a father, I don’t want any hair. Therefore I touch the top of my head. I went to the social worker in the morning. He said : ‘Della, I can refer you to a very good psychiatrist who will decide if medication is an appropriate treatment for you.’ I hate him. I am not crazy! (Ayşegül Durur)

CULTURAL ETIQUETTES

YOU ARE SO SO GREAT! I REALLY LIKED THEM ALL! 

● Don't want Turkish Coffee in Greece.Because the name of Turkish Coffee is Greek Coffee in this country. If you don't put your hands on your stomach in Chile , you aren’t served.Spitting  on the floor is legal in China but treading (stepping) on it is illegal.Don't clash with (crash) a taxi driver in Russia, because most taxi drivers are old academic members at university. If you don't grasp the tea cup with two hands, it is considered an insult.( Ramazan Çobanoğlu)

● Americans are always cool and relaxed .They usually listen to rap and hip-hop music. Their greeting is very interesting. Sometimes it takes 1-2 minutes :D They don't take care of anything except for Obama:)(Kutay Erözcan)

● In India,leaving a small amount of food on your plate indicates that you are satisfied. Finishing all your food means that you are still hungry. In Canada,if invited to someone's home for dinner, take a box of good chocolates, flowers or a bottle of wine. In a dining occasion, wait to be shown to your seat.(Fatih Bakkal)

● In Chile you should put your hand on your stomach in a restaurant. If you don't , they don't service. It’s an insult if you say pasta instead of spagetti in Italy. It’s an insult if you refuse a drink in Scotland.  In Colombia you shouldn't stop at the red light at night. If you do that , you get robbed. (Şeyda Sönmez)

●In England when you meet a new person, you should shake hands. This is a tradition. Ordinarily two people who know the other one don't shake hands. Only when they both greet. If you go somewhere as a visitor, you should buy a small present. Before eating meal, you have to wait the service for everyone to start. Finally don't forget! The traffic runs on the left. In the past, usually the people were using their right hand. Nobody used to see anyone who came from forward. They couldn't know whether that was an enemy. Everyone used to travel on the left to protect themselves. This tradition is still seen in England. ( Can Kartal)

●Whistling at night is the same as calling the devil in our country. Everybody knows the devil will bring bad luck. Mongolian culture is similar to our culture in this respect.If you whistle in Mongolia , evil spirits are invited. You mustn't do that for humanity:) (Mehmet Rakipoğlu)

●In Greece you shouldn't want Turkish Coffee. Because Greek people call it Greek Coffee. Girls musn't wear bikini in Bikini Island. In Russia, it is a shame that two males kiss each other. In Italy, spagetti shouldn't be called pasta. Because it is an insult. (Ömercan Pekteş)

●Waving your hand means "good bye" in a lot of culture but it means "go to hell!" in Greece. Unlike Germany, before a woman thrusts out her hand, the man has to thrust his hand when you greet in Arabia. And you mustn't shake hand with your left hand. If you speak Russian people and they touch you, it means that they trust you. French people keep  a distance to a stranger. (Seda Erdoğan)

●Eating sunflower seeds is loved by Turkish people.But, when people of England  see  someone eating sunflower seeds, it is interesting to them.They think that aliens are eating bird seeds.Because they usually give it to parrots. They find it funny. (Samiha Yanık)

●In Russia, people usually drink mineral water. It’s hard to find normal water.In Chile, when you go to a restaurant, you should put your hands on your stomach to be served.(Unless you put your hands on your stomach in a restaurant in Chile they don’t serveIn Columbia, you shouldn’t stop at red light at nights. If so, you are robbed. In Bahama Islands, if you wear a skirt with flower that means I’m looking for a husband. During bargaining if the saler throws money on the floor, that means the last prize in Indonesia. (Ali Coşkun)

●Japanese culture has evolved greatly from its origins. Contemporary culture combines influences from Asia, Europe and North America.They have a lot of animes. NARUTO is the best anime I've ever seen.(I think,u should watch this anime.)  Emre Tekin)

● If you go to Kenya or Tanzania, greeting will be hard for you. Because African ethnic group greet each other by  spitting. In addition,they spit to newborn babies.They believe that ghoul can't come near. In Nigeria,you shouldn't want to spread sun cream on your back. According to them, white races don’t have a skin. (Aydan Gökçe)

●Turkish culture is available for a great deal of traditions about uncomfortable situations. For example, there was an important rule in the Ottoman Culture. The place where the old people sat wasn’t appropriate for leaving directly. You mustn't return your back opposite them when you left the place. This behavior was regarded as a disrespectful treatment by everybody. Therefore,  you had to look at their face when you left the place. This tradition doesn’t exist any more. Despite this situation , today there might be somebody who keeps on obeying these rules. In my opinion they are cheerful situations .I think our traditions must be continued by Turkish people. (M.Can)

●In Alabama, it is forbidden to play domino on Sunday.
In Indiana monkeys’ smoking is prohibited.  
In Michigan (Port Huron) an ambulance's speed limit is 35 km. In New Jersey, you mustn't look askance at the police. (Ali İzzet Damar)

●I always play Toto. But I am not an addict. I don’t waste money. I have never won anything. I hope to win one day. (Aydan Gökçe)

● I have never had a chance to get tickets.I don't believe in lottery tickets. I don't like it. I think, it is forbidden by religion. I don't have a chance anyway. So I don't prefer.(Betül Kantarcıoğlu)

●I have never been interested in playing the lottery. I didn’t wonder about playing it. But  it might be fun for a few times. It would be fun to try playing. I think it is just for fun. But it wouldn’t be my ideal. (Samiha Yanık)

●I sometimes play İddaa. If my friends play İddaa, I play too. Yesterday we prepared six coupons. However, none of them were right because of Manchester City. I regret playing İddaa.(Fatih Bakkal)

WHAT IS SOMETHING YOU SHOULD THROW AWAY, BUT CAN'T?

● People are perishable. Born, grow and die. My friends, my family will die like everyone. I used to want to throw dead people’s stuff. But now I don’t want because they remind me of those people. All I want to throw is my socks. Because they smell badJ Besides I want to throw who doesn’t look back..(Mehmet Rakipoğlu)

● I don’t have a problem like this. When I want to throw, I throwJ (Emre Tekin)

● Three years ago, I and my family moved to İstanbul. That’s why I had to change my high school. Then, I continued my education in a new high school.But, I couldn’t throw away my first high school’s uniform. Because I lived through a lot of memories with my best friends when I wore that uniform. It is important to me. Thus, I didn’t think of throwing away.(Seda Erdoğan)

● My bed in İstanbul was very old. One day my father’s sister and my mother’s sister sat on my bed. My bed was damaged by them because they were very fat. My father said to my mum ‘Because of your sister’ . My mum said to my father ‘Because of your sister’ J Despite being old, I still liked my bed. Yesterday my father called me and he said ‘I threw away your and your sister’s bed. I bought a new bed for your sister. And I asked ‘Did you buy a new bed for me?’, he said ‘No! Because you don’t live in İstanbul anymore…’ Now I miss my bed .In good timed and bad times in sickness and in health..I took a rest, slept, imagined, cried in my bed…(Tuğçe Şenbaş)

● I bought a tracksuit last year. I liked it. But my friend spilled some ink on it. The tracksuit was washed but it became stained. Now I can’t wear it and I should throw it away but I can’t. ( Pınar Demir)

● I have old clothes which I can’t throw. My mother usually says ‘I don’t understand why you don’t give your old clothes to the others.’ However, I avoid giving. Although it is old, it is mine. (Şeyda Sönmez)

● It isn't difficult to throw something for me but I didn't throw a present that someone gave to me. The gift was a "buji keyring".It was such an interesting gift that it reminded me of him.Therefore I decided to throw it. Yesterday, I threw it from the  window.I am happier than before. If I threw it, I can throw everything..(Nurseza Okur)

● Of course ‘lies’ . The main reason is not I can’t but I don’t want. Telling lies is a bad habit. If you ask me something like that, I will answer ‘lies’. Of course I could answer you as ‘Special items or something’ but I want to be more original. (Ezgi Koyuncu)
