Hello Abdurrahman Çelebi;
Are you aware of that our forum is working at a high speed. From now on I can reach you quicker and more often. Do you remember, when I last visited you I told that the next day I was going to present a lesson about agriculture. I presented it and received much praise and compliment. The teacher told me that it was in the way she wanted to see, in fact it was a perfect sample for ESP(English For Specific Purpose) lesson. On the other hand we have to write at least 12 pages of report for the presentation that we are going to make. Yes…12 pages for a lesson which will endure at most 60 minutes. 1 page for five minutes. Can you imagine my Çelebi. Which wise humanbeing on earth shall give his/her students such a difficult and impossible task. I haven’t understood yet why we have to do such a stupid thing. That stupid American must have gone crazy. May somebody stop her.
What’s good, today the head of our department told us that between the 1-15 of June there is going to be some conferences, seminars, presentation about CEF (common eurepoen framework) which is a recently adopted and upplied language program throughout Europe. We are going to take part and make presentations in that activity.
My Çelebi, I’m unpatient these days, I’m waiting for somebody to return from somewhere. When she returns, I may make my vital explanation. Wish “good luck” for me Çelebi.
(by the way, zynp, the spy of our forum would like to send her respect to you!)
See you

hello Çelebi;
I'm your guest after two weeks. I would beg your pardon as always. It has been an intensive period for me with both good and bad news. Look my Çelebi, I always say that life is a great teacher and it has always something to teach us and we can't know what tomorrow will bring to us. Day by day, year by year, through different affairs and events we are getting more and more experienced. I always feel myself more matured than the previous day or year.
Çelebi, my faithful friend; I was rejected!! It is not only that. There were unpleasant news which I hadn't expected before. I was both disappointed and puzzled. Anyway, I wrote an e-mail in order to show my deplored, disappointed and doubtful mood and haven't been replied yet; maybe never will be replied.
I told you Çelebi, we can't know what tomorrow will bring us. Last Sunday, while I was in my hometown in a depressed mood, I received a phone call and was informed that I had some funs in the forum, which made me happy. This event brought me my self-confidence back. I believe, this is only a nice joke.
Anyway, from now on a great number of exams and presentations are awaiting me, including tomorrow, whic is a repetation of my last week's presentation I must study hard and spend less time on internet my Çelebi...
see you!!!

Hello Abdurrahman Çelebi;
I hope you don't feel bored without me. I promise I will be spending more time and effort in the forum soon. I know I'm a lazy super moderator. Nowadays I'm busy with midterm exams and my lesson planning. Tomorrow I will take the last exam and will concentrate on my lesson presentation on Monday.
By the way my team Fenerbahçe defeated Chelsea:2-1. I'm so happy my Çelebi. I believe we will go further as much as possible. I'm also happy about that the ones who greeted Chelsea at the airport couldn't bear seeing them off because of the defeat. They must have learnt not to depend on others.
An important news is that the head of our department chose me as one of the participants in the project which will be held in July in our faculty. From now on I must think about it. It will be tiring but, a good experience for me.
I will be visiting you in the nearest possible time to discuss, brainstorm and share some feelings. I am glad to have you Çelebi
See you..
(by the way the forum's and your "observer" zynp would like to send her respect to you)

Hello Abdurrahman Çelebi;
We are in the middle of a fight. I don't know what is going on. Our campus has turned to a battle field. Last Sunday, there was a rough fight in the campus between two groups. I believe, there is a big plot to be put on the stage. Our university has been said to be the most peaceful and happiest university in Turkey and the events were launched here. This fact seems too good to be just a coincidence. May God keep us and our lovely country from such kind of dangerous plans. By the way we have been attending our lessons for two days and I've made my presentations. There is no cease or postponement with our lessons.
I took my exams last week. Except one, they were satisfying for me. Although the exams finished, my busyness has not come to an end and seems to go on. I have to edit my plan, write the reflection, prapare my midterm project.... I want to devote more time to my forum and reading
This night our Fenerbahçe has an higly important match in London. You remember, we beat them last week. Then I ask "why not!" We have nothing to loose if we loose the match; but they have many things to loose together with the match.
I always remind you that and will remind this time either. Life is going on, teaching and showing us new and astonishing things. Each time it comes up with an original lesson to teach me. All I can do is to wait and see what the time will show..I have learnt to be patient and optimistic so far.
with my love Çelebi

My lovely and romantic Çelebi;
Be sure that you are witnessing my most intensive days in my life in terms of something. Can you imagine, all those things have been happening to me just for the last month. Everything in one month....Butterflies, insects are flying around me. I will go crazy. One day I'm desperate and the other day I'm the most happy and hopeful. I haven't been able to understand what's going on and when will those exciting and hopeful days will come to a halt. Yes, I experienced the situation that I had been looking for years; but my reaction was unexpectedly even for me. But, I think I'm right to behave in that way. Anyway, there are new doors waiting to be belt and may be opened. From now on, I believe in myself and have endless hopes. I wish to visit you with good news..
Wish your best for me
see you!

Hello Abdurrahman Çelebi;
Some of my new friends find your name funny. I don't care what they say. You remember I gave you that name as my favourite proverb was "In blinds' country one eyed man is a king" whose equivalent in Turkish is "Koyunun olmadığı yerde keçiye Abdurrahman Çelebi derler!"
My Çelebi; I completed editing my plan and writing reflection about my lesson. Offfff...I am bored with the plans, projects, presentations, discussion board..I wonder when this school will end. I know when the schools finishes I will wish to stay still as a student. But somehow I want it to come to an end. Now, I have to write a report for essay analysing. Anyway, I'm used to working on such kind of things.
On the other hand, I hope I am going to Istanbul. I will be there with my friends on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. I wish to have a good time there. The last time I went there was three years ago.
Hey Çelebi... for years I haven't find time to rest my hearth. Why why why Çelebi??? One month ago when I was rejected, I told myself that "ohh my hearth is completely free after years!" But I could not take this pleasure long. Only one week later I found myself in a much more complicated situation. I'm in a hesitant mood these days. I really don't know what to do. What my next step will be like? What will happen tomorrow? Those are the questions keeping my mind busy. Help me my Çelebi. I call my situation "Bermuda Triangle".
I am in the center of that triangle and wonder to which side of it I will move or be helped to move.. or I will have to leave that triangle...
Time will show it. I don't know what life will bring me about that paradox. I only know that I want to forget everything and return to my childhood in which there was no love to hurt our hearths..just tools and friends to play with and happy dreams..:(
See you!!

Hello my Çelebi after six days;
I don't need to ask your mood; because you are just reflecting me like a mirror. If I'm good, then you become normally good; if I'm bad then it is vice versa. You must accept that you are not a living thing. While talking to you I'm talking to myself, to say the truth.
You remember, I told you that I was going to İstanbul for three days. Yes, I went to İstanbul in order to visit my old close-friends. It was a good trip for me. I found out that we have still many things in common with them and are still good friends. Let me tell you what I did there and whom I saw.
I arrived at İstanbul on Friday morning. Recep greeted me at Harem, we had a breakfast with him and made a plan at the same time. Then we went to Beşiktaş port and met with Şaban there. In the noon we were in Eyüp Sultan. In the afternoon we went for a picnic to Kemerburgaz. We made a hamsi-grill there. We were all five guys. After the picnic we drunk hot tea and had a warm conversation. That night our sweet conversation, much of what was about the past, went on in Kemal's dormitory and we stayed there.
On Saturday morning we had a large and perfect breakfast and then went out. Our first station was Koç Museum. I would like to say that, I am very pleased to see that museum. We had a good time there observing and examining different things varying from old fashioned cars to old computers and warcrafts. We also visited a submarine and had a nostalgy tour on an old train.
In the afternoon we went to Ortaköy and saw my close friend Ahmet (whom I call "lion"). We had some time with him eating, drinking and walking along the Ortaköy Coast. (by the way today zeynep has seen the photo which we were taken with Ahmet in the busstop, where zeynep waits everyday and got very angry with me as I didn't even consider to see her ) After making him a farewell, we went to Beyazit and took some photos and wandered around there. That night I got very tired; once I reached my bed, I fell asleep in seconds.
In Sunday morning we woke up early with Recep and went to Eminönü. After having a breakfast there we made our way to Kabataş coast in order to get on the boat which would take us to the Islands. But we had to wait for an hour, so we spent our time playing backgammon. After two hours-long trip we reached the Büyükada. We spent nearly 3 hours there by riding bcycles that we hired. Without bicycles it is impossible to make a trip around the island in such a limited time. After the trip, we felt very tired and hungry. We had a meal there and ate an ice-cream. After a long trip again we got off the boat in Eminönü, where we met Ümit and had a fish-and-bread. With Ümit and Recep we went to Sultanahmet and walked in the Gülhane Park. Ümit left us in Beyazıt and with Recep we returned to Recep's home where I was hosted. After the dinner I said goodbye and thanked everyone and with the accompaniment of Recep I went to the terminal to leave İstanbul.
Yess..that was all! It was an enjoyable visit for me. As I promised to Ahmet I am planning to go there again, maybe in summer. This time I can see my friends from the forum also; especially zeynep, who is now angry with me.
That is enough for today I think. See you later Çelebi
take care

Gross Gut Çelebi;
I'm with you again. This time I am with you consecutively; yesterday and today. I did not give an interval.
Today we went for a picnic with my classmates. In fact I was going to inform you about that but it was not clear if I was going to join my friends or not. We had a great time together. We have been in the same class for three years and at last we succeded to be a real "group" or "team". The picnic was enjoyable with the perfect and delicious grill, backgammon and okey parties, volleyball, swimming (by the way today I swam for the first time this year). My classmate and close friend Köksal, who is also a member of our forum, was the organizer and the car supplier; he assigned two cars for our picnic organization. I would like to thank my brother Köksal here. By the way, I found out a reality about him at the last moment. I saw that I was right and to the point on my estimation. I wish he can get over his grief and find a cure for it as soon as possible. I can make an emphaty easily as I experienced the same situation a few times
take care my Çelebi... see you soon !!
