Hi Everybody,

I would like to tell you about my hometown which is called Eskişehir. I grew up there until eighteen year-old. Also my parents live there since they were born with my two sisters. There are about a million people live there and lots of people work at factory. There are lots of factories which are different sectors. Also there's a big industrial zone there.

Be creative or be careful

To put it simply, should we be creative or careful when we're learning or using a language? 

I assume 'be creative' means you don't need to abide by all the rules of a language completely. If it's right, do we need to learn all the rules? I wonder if it's possible for a learner to be creative when they're trying to learn or use a language. Or rather, do we need to learn how to walk before trying to run?

I may have failed to understand it 'be creative', jus as I failed to get it 'think in English'.

Trust

Trust, faith, believe, these are just simple words but those words are very affected in one’s life. Sometimes their effects are very dangerous in our life. If someone has blindly trust on a person and suddenly he/she break the trust of that person, what would be the feeling of that person.Can I explain a broken heart in words? Can I explain that pain in words? I think no one can explain.Few days ago I met my friend. I felt that she was upset and wanted to share something, so I asked her about it

I was sick that day when we were standing face to face in a risky rainy day. Though my head was dizzy as hell and there was unstoppable ringing in my ears, I forced myself to smile. His expression was stiff for knowing my smile was fake. A farewell was a pain, yet nobody smile on this occasion, if there was any, it must be a bitter smile, sourer than the sourest lemon.

I started to shiver,almost all my body got wet as if my rain cloak had no use at all. Droplets of water covered my face,  those w

THE SAD MOMENTS IN MY LIFE:

THE SAD MOMENTS IN MY LIFE:

 It is generally said that there are more miseries in human life than the moments of happiness. So as the same is with me. I also have sad moments in my life: 

I am born sick. I have so many health problems, but thanks Allah I am alive and active.

I could not get the higher education I wanted. I wanted to do master’s in engineering, but unsurpassable hurdles could not allow me to go ahead. Then I groomed myself in other fields, not very impressive, but okay.

My favourite place

My favourite place is my hometown which is called Eskişehir. I grew up until four years old in my village which is called Turkmen-Tokat village in Eskişehir. After that my family moved city center because of my father's job. Every semester and summer vacation I used to go to our village with my sisters. Generally we used to stay at our grandmother's home with our uncle and cousin (mother's side). When we went to village in summer,we used to go to lake to swim and catch fish. Sometimes we used to

Seekers Writing Prompt - A Failed Trick

To become a magician is one of my dreams. I got astonished for the first time by a warlock's performance, he was a man dressed in white, wore hat and a single eye glass on right. He just stood there on the stage, talked about something nonsense, I didn’t even think it was a joke. One by one, some pigeons came to him, he put them on his body while he was talking, first on his shoulder, head, hands and so on until all his body covered by the countless doves. Then, in a finger snapping, all the bir
