´Gandhi´ Kemal’s long march

Those who argue that Kemal Kiliçdaroglu lacks the charisma and ability to lead had to be present at the Republican People’s Party, or CHP, convention Saturday in Ankara to see how wrong they were.

He brought not only his own manner of politics but also a wave of hope for the social democrats, who have not been in power since the mid-1990s. ....

We are not only electing the head of our party but the next prime minister,....

Long live the left, long live social democracy and long live the Republican People’s Party, he said, ...
The party’s leftist values lagged behind the more important issues related with the continuity of the secular and republican regime threatened by the AKP ...
Unlike during former leader Deniz Baykal’s era, the ongoing case of Ergenekon, ... was also not on the convention’s agenda. Baykal, however, had described himself as an advocate of Ergenekon,. pushing the party to defend the suspects in the case.

Another difference between this convention and previous ones was the signs of a developing democracy within the party. Those who requested time to address the convention were given the floor without exception.

I must say, I have never seen CHP and its delegates so excited. All the people who left the party  are coming back.. I hope CHP leaves its racist/fascist rethorics and takes itself to center-left into political spectrum,  which a social democrat party would naturally be..

And there might be a real hope of winning the next election..

I have many wishes for my life, but I am still confused about what I want.One thing is for sure, one day I want a big family

I am happy with my  life because I´ve been living a lot, I am having great moments in america, Ive made very good friends, I am learning a lot. The bad part is that I miss the ones I love, but I hope I will see them soon.

I have some goals for life, such as learning turkish, graduate, get a job, have my house....and others...

1- NY is not as expensive as Zeynep said- NY Zeyneb´in söylediği kadar pahalı değil

2- She doesn´t hate her neighbor as much as she hates me - benden nefret ediği kadar komşusundan nefret etmiyor

3-this exam was not apparently as difficult as you feared- bu sınav korktuğun kadar zor değilmiş

4- my father is not as rich as your father - benim babam baban kadar zengin değil

5- I didn´t like this dessert as much as I liked baklava - bu tatlıyı baklavayı sevdiğim kadar sevmedim

6- I didn´t like this dessert as much as baklava -bu tatlıyı baklava kadar sevmedim

7- we didn´t stay in Turkey as long as you assumed - Türkye´de sandığın kadar uzun kalmadık

8- you saw that this class was not as difficult as you complained -bu ders gördüğün gibi sızlandığın kadar  zor olmadı

:S  thanks

gercek olacak kadar çok iyi..

Please Don’t Tell Me

Lütfen Söyleme Bana

Please don´t tell me that you understand

Senin de sevdiğin ülkesi için savaşmadıkça

Lütfen acımı hissettiğini söyleme bana

Damarlarımda akan kalp ağrısını sen de bilmedikçe

Please don´t tell me that things will get better
Unless you wait for the mailman for one single letter
Please don´t tell me that the holidays will be fine
Unless you will be alone like I will this time

 Lütfen bana her şeyin düzeleceğini söyleme

Bir tane mektup için sen de postacıyı beklemedikçe

Tatillerin iyi olacağını söyleme bana

Bu sefer benim olduğum gibi sen de yalnız olmadıkça

Please don´t tell me that I shouldn´t cry
Unless you´re dealing with the military and can understand why
Please don´t tell me that I should be tough
Unless you´ve been through it and know that it is rough

Sen de bir asker eşi olmadıkça

Lütfen bana her şey yolunda deme

Sen de bugün  görevlendirilmiş birini özlemedikçe

I think this is very difficult/almost impossible to translate properly into Turkish.  The words ´hickory dickory dock´ are totally meaningless in English. I thought I´d have a go though.

Hickory dickory dock - *+(no meaning)

The mouse ran up the clock - Fare saati koşarak tırmandı

The clock struck one - Saat biri çaldı

The mouse ran down - Fare aşağıya koştu.

Hickory dickory dock - (no meaning)

Hickory dickory dock needs to be translated by some nonsense Turkish words that fit the rhythm of the rhyme.
