Last Ted Talk

In this semester, Public speaking taught me a lot of confidence to talk in public which means in front of people. I am actually happy to be in public speaking class and it encouraged myself to go out and have a confident on things that I did not use to have. Most of my classmates helped me to improve in and outside of the class which improved my English skills as well. I tried to do my all homework and tried to participate every class as much as I can to get a good grade in that class. The first days when I came in to class. I thought this was going to be the easiest class but it ended up being one of the toughest because writing 500 words blog just makes it harder. I hated to write 500 words because it was too much for me because I am as a person who can write certain amount of word about one topic . So that's why sometimes I struggled to write blog post and I needed to make something up to finish my word count. I really had fun and achieved my goal from first day. I was struggle talking in public and in front of a lot of people. I won and I can talk with people easily and explain things better. Our teacher helped me to improve a lot with her feedbacks on my talks and my speeches helped me to improve faster and stronger. At the end I feel like I improved and show all my effort and finished stronger. Now I can actually go out and do speech because I got that confidence on me which actually a pumps me up. I wish this class continue for longer because I wanted to improve my grade more because I needed . I was in average of 82 which I wanted to get above 90. I tried hard but did not care enough I guess. I should've study more and improve more which would put my grade higher so I would success on this topic. At the end my Ted talk was really good and some edited made it better than how it was. I tried to made it look like real Ted talk. So I would get better grade. In my Ted talk I remembered all my talk and I was happy to remember all of them. Now I hope I will do good in the end quiz to get better grade and improve myself. I wil do my best at that to success because that's all I need so far. It is going to be my last test of this semester.

How to make my Ted talk better

I started to write my Ted talk like weeks ago. I had some ideas about my topic for what to write and how to support it. I gave a lot of examples to support my idea which is to hard work beats every situation even the worst ones. I used real story examples of players who had a bad life experience at their past life. So I have a good topic which I can support it with a lot of examples. However I need to add something and show a picture of those players so the audience would recognize them. I should show a video of their experiencences which would help them to realize them by seeing it other than hearing it. I should be more specific on the things when I try to explain the topic. Also I wanted to inspire them to work hard and try to make them a good athletes. So people have to inspired by my talk. That is my goal so people would want to work hard for their sports. There are a lot of things that I have to work on my Ted talk because giving example is not enough for a person to inspire. So I need to find different ways to make my talk inspired. I am thinking about giving one of my life experience to make them empathy over something that would happen to random person. So that's how I would improve my talk.

Hard work

Professional players
Nowadays most of the professional player all around the world have bad life experiences when they were young. For example, Messi when he was young he suffered from the disease which would not grow him properly, he had to use some injection which would help him to grow properly. So he would have play his sport which is soccer. As you know in soccer you have to be tall enough to play as a forward. According to Soccerplayers.com the average forward in soccer has to be 6 feet tall. However messi was 5’3. That’s why he had to use those injections to continue playing. Most important thing from this story is that Messi did not give up and keep playing until he succeed. Thats one of the reason that he became professional. His hard work and confidence helped him to become the best in the world. There are a lot of examples of professional players who suffer when they were young. These days most of the athletes thinks that it is so easy to become professional but they have to work harder to become better so they would have better opportunities to become one of the best. For example, New generations athletes give up when their work get hard. Thats why most of the athletes quit in middle of their career. I recommend them to work harder and follow those athletes who worked hard to become soccer player. If you ahva e an idol which works hard enough to become the best at his sport. You can be like him to be the best at your sport and everybody would respect you. God only gives to people who work for it. If you don’t work you don't get credit on the things that you do. If you want to become a soccer player you have to work hard. Did you know that Cristiano Ronalo worked for 10 hours a day to beat one of his team's rivalry. His idea is to make history over other players. That's how he makes history all the time. Also Jimmy graham from football had a bad life. For example, when he was young. He got adopted and his dad left him on child care place with amount of money. However he didn't give up and went to high school and played basketball for the school. Then he played football and selected to play in NFL. He became professional because of his confidence and hard work.

Brainstorming

OMost of the professional players inspired from their life experiences. 

For example, Messi had a problem that he could not grow properly, so he could not play soccer but he did not give up and started to use what he had to use to grow that are medicines. 

Another example that Cristiano Ronaldo can not get that support from his family to go play soccer. His dad never trusted that he would play soccer. He always worked by himself. Brought soccer balls where ever he want to go. He practiced everyday. 

They all inspired from their experiences to become the best players that ever made. People always judge them for how they are playing but people should empathy for their experiences and what they have done. 

Their hard work is the key to success on their sports.

Those athletes success because they do not give up. They try their best and embrace their injuries or things that push them not to work. They do what ever they need to do to success.

Those athletes inspire people to work hard and do better for their interesting sports. 

For example, Cristiano Ronaldo who scored goals always dedicate to their father because he died when he was young. 

Also in the basketball these things happen too. For example, Lebron James could not go to college he needed to play basketball so he could not get enough education.

The Peter Pan

I am a person that does not like to go to theatre. However I have been to theatre when I was young because of my mother who loves to go to plays in Turkey. She always wanted me to go to theatre all the time. I always ignored her but I should've go and see the different theatre plays to learn things. This time it is one of days that I wanted to avoid to go to play. I was not excited to go and watch it in the first time. Then I had to do it to not to get f for my class. When I first arrived, I though the theatre would be bigger than how it is now. I realized that the players had not enough place to act clearly. I felt sad because those actors would make good thing there. However when they started to act. I actuall liked the play. I was so surprised that the play was really interesting. I thought it would not be as close as how professional act. In the play actors acted so good that I had to congratulate them after the play. The play was about Peter Pan and three children of two parents who live in the third floor and has a dog. That dog knew the deal and tried to stay in the house but the dad of their kids had to take the dog out. Then Peter Pan comes in the house and takes everyone from that house and teach them how to fly by using that magical dust. When they arrive in the other world one of the other kid shot the Wendy by using his arrow. While she was dead other kids came there and cried for Wendy. She asked them to make a house for her. Then everybody made a house for her. Then she just came back to life. Everybody was happy but there was a problem that the hook was trying to go after Peter Pan and those kids. Those kids were wanted to have a mom and they picked Wendy as a mom but Peter Pan got jealous and started to complain about the things that he wants to have. So he wanted them to leave and go to place that they use to live. While they were going back, hook was waiting for them. So kidnapped all of the kids that wanted to go to house. When they were on the ship, hook wanted them to go and die by tiger. They sent one of the pirate to check and see how is he. While he was checking he could not get back because he was dead. Then Hook wanted to go by himself but his lighter got blown. So it was time for those kids to go and die. He sent all of them there and they all screamed. He left the Wendy and wanted to put her in the ocean so she would drown. While he was doing it, all the kids came there and started to fight against the Pirates. They killed all of them and hook was still fighting against Peter Pan. When Peter Pan took his sword, they started to talk about having mom and how wonderful our mom is. All of a sudden Hook just killed himself by jumping in the ocean. Nobody even care about him and everybody acted like nothing happened at all. When they came back to their house everything was different but their mom was waiting for them to and missed them so much that she thought that she was dreaming. In conclusion it was really good play. Also I recommend people to go to the next play. It would be better.

Ted Talk

There are a lot of Ted talks you can find on Internet or attend them in certain places if you want to. In Ted talk there is only one speaker who talk about the topic that he has. He explains those topics to audience or talk about the problem of that topic and explain how to solve them. For me interesting ones when they talk about technological or new species that they find under ocean or above ocean. It sounds cool because there are a lot of them that you do not even know. That's why it sounds interesting for me. Most of the speakers have presentations that they can show to keep everyone's attention on one thing. Most of them use colorful images so people would understand and enjoy with the pictures. Speakers use that to hook the attention of that audience. So people can not lose their attention and can not fall asleep. That's what you need to have before you do your talk. You should prepare a presentation so you will keep everyone's attention on the topic. It is really good tactic to affect your audience to interest on your talk. After a while you will try to give a real example so the audience would have an idea of what you are talking about. When you talk you have to eye contact with people so they would think that you are looking at them and they would like to listen more so you would keep them in track. Then you have to stay on the track so they would understand the topic otherwise if you talk about different things than what you supposed to say then they would lose the topic. If you follow these steps you would probably success on your Ted talk. You can search on Internet and watch how speakers use their presentation. So you would have an idea to how to use and how to keep everyone's attention while using these things. If you did all of them you will have a good talk. Then everybody will interest on your topic that you want to explain. Then everybody would follow your talk and you would get fans. In conclusion those steps would led you to success to become a good speaker. There are more details that you would like to follow that would help you also. For example you have to specific when you talk because more you clear more the audience get to listen and understand. So you should be clear when you talk. Do not breathe like you are about to choke. Try to breath smooth so people would not hear your breath. Also try to keep in same emotion. If you try to change your emotion people would get confuse on your topic and your pacing while you are doing those talks. That's why try to keep on track. After those steps you will become a great speaker.

Performance

In our class I have to explain how to make Turkish tea. In order to do that I have to explain how people feel and think about it to try to emphasize my classmates. So they would have an idea about how Turkish tea would taste like. I gave an example of the best chemist in turkey who said " Turkey is the reason why I go to Turkey every year." So they would have an idea what those people thinks about Turkish tea. Also I explained that Turkish is best known for its food and drinks that they have. That is actually explains why did I choice this topic to explain. I try to keep everyone's attention in some point but because of my English level I make some mistakes that would make the audience bored. I try to give my points clearly so those people would get attracted by the tea then they would want to buy it. I have enough information to make a tea because I used to make one for myself when I was alone. I had experienced to make it, but I might lose those skills because it is been a long that I make one. I have clear ideas to explain how to make a Turkish tea. It would affect my classmates to think that they are making one. I would not use appropriate comments on thinks that I am making that belongs to Turkey. I would try to use words that I know because it would mean something else which would affect audience to get offended. I have made a note card which actually helps me to stay on track. So I can explain clearly. I feel like I am going to have a good eyecontact because I am trying to look everyone's face to know how I am doing so far. That's why I would have an eye contact with people a lot. I am not an enthusiastic person but I would try to do my best to affect them to laugh or listen carefully. Tomorrow I believe that I will get good score because I encourage myself to get a grade which I would be proud of for a day. Also I want my classmates to learn about Turkish traditions which I love. I have to study more to get better grade because when I got up there, I get nervous because it is really hard to speak infront of all my classmates. I still struggle because when I get nervous I can't talk with people all the time. Tomorrow is going to be the day that I go up there and do my best in front of my classmates. This is the way that I always encourage myself to do things. In is project I would get a good grade and I would make everyone intrested about the tea. In the end I believe that the I would pass the time limit of that speed because it is a long speech which I can express quickly. So I don't think I would have a problem on time range in that project. I hope everyone will enjoy my speech tomorrow.

How to make Turkish Tea

Aziz Anzar is the chemistry teacher who won noble said "Turkish tea is the reason that I come to Turkey every year."As you know Turkey is the place that  known by its food and drinks. Most of the famous people come to Turkey to eat and drink that belongs to Turkey. There is always way to make Turkish tea but the way my mom does it really good. I always drink the tea that my mom makes. I will explain how to make it.

1) First you have to get a rize tea from Turkey. 
2) Then you have to get a special boiler that can boil the tea and the water in the same time. 
3) You need to have filter which can separate tea pieces from the water.
4) Ypu have to wait about 15 minutes for water to get ready.
5) When you know that water is boiled now you can put sugar in it and serve it.

In conclusion, When people drink Turkish tea. All they do is go and buy a new house so they can move to Turkey to drink tea and become Turkish. That shows how strong and how it affects a person when they drink Turkish tea. 

How to speeches

How to use chopstick
There are a lot of people in the world that use different dishes and the tools that they use to eat. So Asian people use chopstick instead of fork and spoon. So people from other part of the world doesn't have any idea how to use those sticks.

How to save gas
Most of the people who has a car wants to save their gas to save money and have more gas to use it later for important things. So that's why people should save their gas.

How to plant tree
Nowadays people cut trees more than planting them that's why people should learn how to plant trees to help humanity to have better places instead of seeing buildings everywhere. That's why people should plant trees to have better life.

Lightning Debate

In class we have to debate with eachother for the topic we choose. I was last one to present the debate because I had a lot of topics that were not interesting. I had a topic which was inappropriate but I had enough supporting evidence to debate. So I was looking for other topics. I decided to do Cats vs Dogs, but I had no idea what to talk about. Then I decided to talk about no iPads. I had ideas about that. I was thinking to win but when I talked I was nervous because people were looking at me. I gave good examples to support my ideas. I should've work on my evidence more because in the end I lost my credibility. However in the debate with group, I was more prepared and ready because I know what I was going to say to support my friends and my evidence. I prepared before I came to class but in lightning debate, I wasn't ready because i had to make evidence up and try to support them even though they are not real. I feel like I did a good job in my rebuttal against Mazie and Hans in both debates. I was nervous in bo but I was strong too. That's why I feel like it was a good debate for me. Everybody in our debate did very good job. Like I said Ella was like a machine gun which rapid fire. She had a lot of ideas and she talked about a lot them so fast and so clear. After that it was my turn. I wasn't like machine gun but I was pistol. I shoot on the point. That's means I just go slowly and talk about what they said wrong. I feel like we won the debate because we were more prepared and more clear with our evidence. Other team had good opening and rebuttlas but they were not that clear when they support it. They should've work on those ideas so they would beat us next time.  In our team we always have an issue to get together because everyone has their ideas and they want to support their ideas I instead of what they should support. That's cause our team to get in a problem which is to communicate. If we work on these things then we will have better ideas and better opening in every debate. In addition we are a good team and we can be better and beat the other side very easily. Next debate we will be more prepared to support everything and work on our bad sides to win better instead of having close wins. I have to work on my lightning debate to support ideas and should not be nervous next time because it makes me look like I am not saying to truth. It affects me to get nervous .

Debate on Social network.

We as debaters have to debate on "social media affects on teens." Nowadays all the teens are using social media to communicate, to learn things, and to entertain by those electronic devices, but do they actually use those for those benefits. All the people in the world that knows that teens do not use those devices for those benefits. Also these devices have bad influence on the people who use that. Easy one, those electronic devices spread radioactive energy to your body which affects your brain. If we talk about teens there are a lot of things that they do but nobody knows. We actually know what they are doing but we still let them using that device. Why? Because when those teens does not have their devices they get mad and do crazy things to the people who do not let them having those devices. If we talk about the real affect on teens. There are tons of them but the commons are Social Media affects students to fail their grades, what they post would affect their job interview, plagiarism. Those are the most common ones about teens. For example, if teen does study for his or her test, it is probably because of the social network. There is fact that kids are most likely to get 3.8 gpa. If they do not use electronic devices. However teens use those devices that's why their average gpa is 3.06. It affects community as well as student. If teens use those devices benefitical, then country would have better future and the student would have better future too. That's why people should talk with their kids to push them to use those devices beneficially. Also if teens use those devices, there is a least chance that they will focus on the work more than device that they are using. Teens do not know what they are posting on the social media. If they do then they do not care about their future. When people post on photo, they should focus what they are posting because it would affect their future. For example, if one person posts a post that is him drinking with their friends like crazy. So the boss of the job would look for it and when he finds that he will probably fire you or would not let you work for him in his job. If I was a boss I would never let someone who drinks all the time because it is a bad influence for my workshop and for the workers in the job. That's why teens should be aware of their posts on social media. There is another problem that is plagiarism. All the teens believe that social media is a life saver for them because when they struggle on the question, they always ask that question to social media or google. Almost every question that you get in your test, Google would answer it for you. That's why most of teens use google as a school tool. They do not know that it is plagiarism because they see it as a school tool and as a life saver that's why they love to use that.

Debate

In class we had to debate on our topic which is lowering the drinking age. We had to throw coin to choice whoever will get cons or pros. We picked Ella for the coin and they picked Evan for the coin. Evan called it tail and we called it head. Evan won. They discuss with eachother to pick the best one for them. They picked cons. They looked so prepared like us. I was actually nervous that they would win. After awhile when everyone was done with their stuff we had to go first as a team. Hanna had to go up and talk about her debate on the topic. She had a lot of evidence and proof which actually help us to start very good on our debate. It took her 2 minutes to finish her arguement which was good for our team. Now it was other sides turn to come up and debate on our topic. They started very good and prepared but it was really short compare to ours. The. We had to represent our rebuttals to go against each other by proving some evidence. Our member Ella started so good and prepared but there was a problem. It was me, I thought that she was doing that for 2 minutes. Last one confused my mind. I forgot to tell her how much time left. I felt really sorry for my team mate. That would've affect us to lose the debate. I was sad because of the thing that I have done. Then it was other side's turn to share their rebuttla. They started good but then they confused about what we said because they started to agree on our side. When they were done, I promised myself that I will do it this time perfectly instead of forgetting it. David came up and started to talk about his rebuttla. He had a lot of evidence which helped us to spread the topic little bit more. He looked prepared for the topic but I think he was nervous that is why he had to stop sometimes and breathe. It took him 54 seconds to finish his debate. We were doing so good so far because we talked about almost all the evidence we got. Then it was their turn. Their team member started good but then he forget what he was talking about and started to fight with our team mate. It affected their team to look bad on our side. It was time for the closing statement. Our team member Adler came up and started to talk about all the debate evidences and researches. He did so good on it which helped us to finish our debate strong. Then it was other team turn. Evan came up and started to talk about his side but he used his iPad more which he should not do. It affect them to communicate with our team because I believe that eye contact is really important for the topic. In addition, I believe that our team did little bit better than other team because we looked more prepared and we had a lot of evidence which help us to win the debate. Other team did great too because we have to congratulate them too because it is not that easy to get up there and talk about it.

Debate

In class our topic is how to debate. We spread out two groups and had a one arguementative issue topic which is Lowering drinking age. I believe that people should lower it because when people start to drink in early age they will get used to it later on. If they drink later age they will get drunk so easily which affect them to cause trouble. For example, if you get in age that is 20 and never drink, you will get drunk so easily and you will get your car and crash it. That's why people should drink earlier. In class we started to search for the issue more than our opinions. We got a lot of stats about the issue. It says that when people drink a lot, it causes them to suicide or get in accident because they don't drive safely. Nowadays people who drink a lot get in a accident 80% and %40 of them lose their lives. In the United States people can drink in age of 21 which is actually later than other countries. Most of the Europe drinking age is 18. Most of the people in the Europe drink as soon as possible. They get use to drinking early age that's why people know what to do in the early age. That's why when they go drink, they take taxi to the place where they drink. In my opinion the United States should lower the drinking age to teach their citizens what to do in early age. Also in class we have to talk about other side which is not to lower drinking age. We get s proof that why the United States should not lower the drinking age. It affect students to fail more in their classes which affects the education in the country. Also the economy because people do not work and study. Economy is one of the most important thing for the country and for the people who live in the country. That's why he United States can not risk that for their country. After those things, I think my groups has a good things to share and get point from it. In my opinion our group would win this arguement very easily because we took a lot of notes and find good resources to support our ideas. That's why I think we will win this debate. In the class when we talk about the arguement. We have to talk in the group to give better ideas to support our topic and our arguement. That's why I have to think a lot and listen what other groups says. I actually like to go against to people when they argue with me and my group so this debate will be fun one to do. That's why I am so excited to be there and debate about the topic with people. I trust to my opinions and my resources which would help for me to support my idea. That's why we have to work on timing now. I think our talking crew is good so I believe that they can time the things and finish before the time ends.

My monologue Fight Club

This monologue actually challenged me to talk because my character has to be angry and loud. I am as a person not that loud to talk or shout but I had to figure out how could I act like him to make my monologue perfect. I tried a lot of times by myself to be like him. I finally achieved to be loud and angry for my monologue. When I got loud it inspired me to get mad more because I could actually act like my character. Also I had an issue which is to remember my lines in the monologue. It was not that long monologue but when you try to act it. All your concentration moves on to the acting because it is hard to act. So I try to memorize my lines. It also has rules which I have to count those rules. When I started to memorizing it. I mostly forget to count the rules, I try to start with the rule without counting it. I had to stop doing it because it affected my monologue to be not as serious as it was when I count them. I made it really good for my final. I hope I will act it because when I get there I always mess things up because I get nervous when I get up in front of my class mates. For my final I want to get better and finish my monologue with a good grade because this monologue was actually fun for me. I feel like my weakness are that I try to get loud and act more then I memorize so I should keep them in the same track so I would do great. I have to move my hands and my body instead of putting my hand in my pocket. So I should act more and act real like how the character does in the movie. This procedure took me for like a week to act and memorize. Now I just have to act in front of my class mates to get good feedback. So my monologue would look better. That's the why I will try my best to look perfect when I get up there. My strongests are that I can actually act like the character in the movie. I got that characteristics. Also I can actually shout and be loud enough for people to get my emotion and people can understand why am I trying to tell them and they can feel how serious I am to make them feel my emotion. I still should work for it to get better to get everyone's attention. I hope I will improve my skill on public speaking because when I get up in front of people I always get nervous and could not do what I have to do. That's why I have to get in front of people to do it because it would be good practice for everyone. Last time when I got in front of the school. I was so bad to announce because I talked so fast. I should've do better than what I have done because I was so scared that's why I want to improve my skills to get that confidence to talk in front of a lot of people. So after that I can feel relaxed and ready to announce with out having issues when I get up there and talk to people.

In class writing

My character who is Tyler Durden. He established a club where you can fight and get over with your stress. He calls that club "the Fight Club." So in my monologue he talk about the rules to be the part of the fight club. So in his monologue he has a strong and anger voice on him. When he explains all the rules he wants everyone to listen to him. He has an anger on people in the club that's why his voice is so loud.

Monologue video

In my class, I had to present my who am I? monologue which I was not really ready to present because I was really nervous to come up and explain myself to the people in my class. In the first time when we started to doing this assignment. I knew that I would struggle with talking in front of my class mates because I really get nervous when I am talking in front of my class mates. I do not really know how to stay strong and confidence to talk infront of them. After while we had to pair up and do practice with our pairs then I got that confidence to talk in front of my class mates. After those practices, I was felling that I was ready to go. Then I started to correct my monologue which I needed to time it and put better details in it. I changed most of my monologue later. It affect me to lose some of the words. Then I started to work on my memorizing which I believed that I could've do that in 15 minutes. It took me almost 30 minutes to remember all the thing. So I should work on my memorizing. After that it was our last chance to present and get the grade. I felt ready to go and present the whole thing. I did not know that I would actually get any problem to do things. Then when I get up, I messed up my monologue for little that I forget some that's why I stopped sometimes which affect me to lose time little bit. I was actually nervous in the beginning because everyone wanted me to get up. Then I wanted to study little bit more to get that confidence to get up and do my thing. Then suddenly I just felt like doing it again. Then I got up and started to doing it. I think I did good in the second time because I was actually had that confidence to talk. I moved little bit that I should've work on it more. I will work on to memorize and get that confidence in the first time because I believe that I can do better after that. Now I picked hard monologue which I believe is going to challenge me to memorize it. So I should work on my memorizing this time and then I can get confidence later to represent it in the class. I hope I will do good this time to get good grade and better scores. I have to push myself to learn lesson and fix the mistakes to get better grades which I believe that it is not that hard to do. If I can fix those then I will be fine to do other monologues better than these ones. Also I believe that I have to believe myself when I get infront of my class mates. So I can talk infront of the crowd because I have to get and announce something infront of whole school in school meeting next week.

Success in 3 things

In this class, I have learned lots of elements that I thought it wouldn't be that important for public speaking. Most of them changed my mind about public speaking in the class. I have learned that I should be careful on things that I learned that I was bad at. Now I started to get better with public speaking. For now I liked to learn about voice because I always talk little bit fast and quite. I started to know what to do about that situation, which actually help me to communicate with other people outside. Also the way I stand because I always couldn't figure that out why I was moving while I was talking. I started to lose that and started to stand right in front of people. That actually made me happy about the situation that I had. Last thing is the eye contact. I always had issues about eye contacts because I always try to avoid eye contacts with people which actually affect me and the other people who try to talk with me. I try to work on these situation that I have. If I would succeed on them then I believe that I can be a good public speaker for future, which may actually affect me to get a job and succeed on it.  For my goals in this class I want to get in front of people and talk to them without having any problem, improve my skills about public speaking, able to be courage to go I front of a lot of people and talk with them. So I can be the expert one for the public speaking.

A script is obviously less than a play, while a production is more 
In the play you can create more things when you act. 
It is meanfull than what normal word is.
It relates to this class because when we do public speaking we have to act and make sure that everybody understands.

I am

I am Tufan Baran Demirkol. I am from Istanbul, Turkey. I live in an apartment with my family. I have one brother who is 3 years younger than I am. He plays professional soccer in Turkey. I play soccer too. I play in varsity team of Cheshire Academy. My dad played for professional team then he started to become my coach. I lived in Turkey for 14 years then I moved to United States for high school. I started to go to school in New Jersey. Then I moved to Cheshire Academy. I moved because I was not happy in my other school. I had lots of issues in that school which even affect me to get a tick. When I moved to Cheshire Academy as a junior. I had a great year and I was happy. Now I am still in Cheshire Academy as a senior. I am the captain of varsity soccer team. For future I want to become a computer engineer because I believe that it is the job that will get important in the future. Nowadays people do everything on their electronic devices. So that would help me to improve and get money from my job if I choose to do it. I have a lot of dreams one of them is to become soccer player and play in front of thousands of people. I always wanted to know how those players feel when they play in front of a lot of people. It would give them pressure if they make mistakes so I just want to feel that. I want to go to college in United States to get better education and better athlete. In turkey there is not that many college which offers athletics and education. So I think it would be better for me to stay in United States.
