It is like Eurovision!!! But then the other way!!! Eurovision is usually the east european countries that are best, now it's only West europe in the semi finals!!!

But I feel sorry for England. And I start to question myself.. everybody thinks Tarkan and ROnaldo to be gorgeous, but I can't like any of them :-S Especially Ronaldo, he's such a weak, sweet looking boy.. I prefer my rough man

And I can't stand Rooney!! It's just an annoyment to look at such an aggresive player like him.

HomeSick, you misunderstood her She wants a translation into English from the written Turkish text because she doesn't speak Turkish Therefore she also doesn't understand your Turkish message

This seems like a nice thread! Also helpful for me to remind me of my goals if I seem to forget them

Personal

01. Spend more time with my family. After all, I start to appreciate them more and more now I'm about to live far away from them.

02. Be more supportive to Kadir. For some reason I always want him to comfort me when I'm sad, but as soon as he is sad, I freak out just because I don't want him to be sad! Obviously me freaking out is not a good method to cheer him up.

03. Play more piano than I used to. I will miss it in Türkiye and I know it's one of 'my features' that Kadir is proud of, though I have let it down for such a long time. One day I will miss the cold touch of unplayed keys on a lonely summernight.

04. Finish all the books of Yaşar Kemal in either English or Dutch by the end of summer.

05. Do more sports (I don't do any )

06. Learn to remember what Bliss said: failure is an event and not a person.

07. Stop being paranoid and try to find reasons why people wouldn't like me. Done that to Kadir for a long time and it drove him crazy as it didn't really prove my trust in him. But I'm kinda succeeding already at achieving this goal

Career

01. Finish my summerjob and regular part-time job properly and make enough money to save up a 1000€ by the end of this summer.

02. Study Turkish very well so that I am able to use (not only know) the very basics in October, then go on on a higher level till I hopefully speak native after the New Year.

03. Read Turkish children's books from 4 years up to highschool literature These ought to be read in Turkish! Then start to read the Turkish literature that I read translated in their original language.

04. Pass the YÖS exam and enter the Turkish Language faculty of Ege Üniversitesi.

Actually Erdinç, a lot of times i disagree with you or think that you are strict. But today I realized I do forget that you might be what Türkiye needs right now: someone who truly loves the country and tehrefore critizes it, to make it better.

I was shocked with your message also, especially the girls' virginity part. Let's not get into a huge discussion about it, but from what I've understood it's not always so obvious whether a woman had sex or not. Sometimes it looks like she isn't a virgin anymore, though she still is. It's a horrible deed to force a girl into getting this checked up.

I knew about the importance of the army. I've seen the best coast part of the city of Izmir being territory of the army

But I wonder how come that law system works SO badly.
