I began playing volleyball when ı was eight years

old for İMKB sport clup. We trained in kavaklı

primary school three times a week.

I still remember my first training day.I was so

excited and embrassed between the others. Most

of them were more experienced than me but ı was

faster than them.

One year later our team joined small girls

tournement. We won the first game and ı was the

captain of our team. I was so happy

DISCOVER THE WOMEN VOLLEYBALL

Three years later, ı am still the captain of our team

that is at third rank in its group. If we finish the

league among the first four team, we will play for

İstanbul championship.

By the way ı also play for older team of our club.

That’s why ı am playing twice a week for two

different age category of the volley league my

team.

I go three times a week for training so I may say

that my life passes between volleyball and school.

I never complain about it.

As a matter of fact making sport increases my

ability of studying. I recommend all my school

About the movie…

The Truman Show is a 1998 American

science fiction comedy-drama film directed

by Peter Weir and written by Andrew

Niccol. The film stars Jim Carrey as Truman

Burbank, Laura Linney, Noah Emmerich, Ed

Harris and Natascha McElhone.

The Truman Show Directed by Peter Weir and written by Andrew Niccol

The film chronicles the life of a man who is

initially unaware that he is living in a

constructed reality television show,

broadcast around the clock to billions of

people around the globe. Truman

becomes suspicious of his perceived

reality and embarks on a quest to discover

the truth about his life.

My opinion about the movie...

I think this film takes you to another place and you experience different feelings. On the one hand,

you know what will happen then,on the other hand, it makes you excited. I really love this film and

still it affects me. I think you should watch the Truman show.

MY HOBBY PAGE 20

DRAWING

By Ezgi Iravul

In my free time, I like

drawing. When I was 12, I started to draw with my

teacher’s help. My art teacher saw my ability of drawing. My teacher started

to help me for drawing. By her support, I improved

myself. I have learned new techniques for drawing.

When I am drawing, I feel myself very happy and very peaceful. I get rid of my

stress. I feel myself in another world when I draw

a picture. All the time my teacher motivates me for drawing. My design is bad

but my charcoal is so good. My home is full of with my

drawings. In my spare time, I always draw.

I want to be a painter in future. I think my drawing is not so good but I

don’t think my drawing is so bad too. I can design a shoe but I can’t design T-shirt, leggings , dress , hat and the things like

this. I can draw face, ear , mouth , nose and I can do darken. I hope that I will

improve myself by studying hard.

MY FUTURE ! PAGE 21

I WANT TO BE A GRAPHIC DESIGNER

By Mete Kuru

WHEN DID YOU STARTED?

I started it 2 years ago. I was editing some photos on computer.

HOW DID YOU PROVE YOURSELF?

I trained a lot and made banner for

YouTube channels. I learned how to use all design programmes on computer.

AND NOW WHAT ARE YOU DOING ABOUT IT?

I am designing websites for companys and I am

making channel desing for YouTubers. Some of the YouTubers asking me about money but I am telling them I’m not doing it for money. Its my

hobby. I have “Premium” account of most famous design programe named “Cinema 4D”.

You can make a lot of things on that programe about design. You can design videos, photos, and you can design 3D objects. Most of the time I

use Cinema 4D to make “Intro” to YouTube channels. But sometimes, when channel owners

wants “Banner” for their channel, I can make banner for them. Usually they are saying: “Thank

you very much” to me. I love doing this.

I want to be a graphic designer when I grow up. So I need to prove myself more and I need to train a lot on computer. I wish I could be a successful graphic

designer in future. I think I will work with a company to design their website or what they sell. If I could be a successful on my job, maybe I could advance and be director of designers. I could help my family to earn a livelihood.

TV SHOW ! PAGE 27

DISCOVER DOCTOR WHO !

Doctor Who is a series which goes on for 52 years. It is an english TV show that is about an alien. This alien

comes from a planet called Gallifrey. Gallifrey is the home planet of the time lords. Our hero-alien is also

a time lord called the Doctor. Well actually his name is not the Doctor, none knows his real name. Expect

his wife, may be... Gallifrey, his planet got destroyed in a battle called ''The Time War'' between the time lords and the daleks.

The Doctor has a machine called TARDIS. He

can go anywhere in time and space with this. He flies around time and fixes the wrong things

about it. His personal favourite one is Earth. He loves the humanity. He usually takes human companions with him. This usually ends with

getting stuck in a parallel universe (don't worry they always come back to life after a few

episodes) or the Doctor leaving his companion behind. Not anything important because in the

end everything come together.

This is a crazy and also a funny series until the writers kill your

favourite character.
