Taking Photos ( A Day İn The Dessert)


 
A Day İn The Dessert
30.06.2016
This photo was taken by me in the world's biggest dessert, which is The Sahara Dessert. Me and my family went to Morocco And we stayed in the Sahara Dessert for one night. To go to the camp we were staying, we used camels. I am in the first row and my dad is in the second row but my mom and my sister are not visible because my mom took the photo and my sister was behind my mom. There is a man in the very front showing  camels the way. The view was amazing, the sand was really smooth and it felt soft. But there were camel poops all over the way. But it was okay because we didn't step on it.

Journal Entry ( A Great Day On a Boat)

A Great Day On a Boat

26.08.2016

A had memorable day while I was on a boat. İt wasn't a day which had a lot of exciting events happening or it wasn't a really wild, active day, conversely it was the most peaceful and inactive day I had. I woke up in the morning smelling a delicious egg frying. I got up and got dressed. I went to the bathroom and brushed my teeth. When I went upstairs a glorious breakfast was waiting on the table. My mom and dad had already started when came. I sat down and started to eat the delicious breakfast. As I finished I decided to swim. I quickly wore my swimsuit and jumped in to the sea, which freezing cold. But it was ok because the sun rays that were hitting me quickly warmed me up. After I came out of the sea I changed my clothes and started to read a book called ''Sineklerin Tanrısı'' which was one of the books that were given to us for summer homework. The book wasn't really interesting in start.  As I was continuing to read the boat had started to sail. I didn't realise it until I felt the wild wind hitting my face. İt was such a delight to be there  at that moment. Everybody in my family was also reading in pleasure. Then when the boat stopped in a place I felt flaming hot because the wind had stopped to blow and the sun was right above us. I wore a swimsuit and just threw myself in to the sea. The sea wasn't that deep the bottom was visual. There were beautiful fishes swimming.  As I got out of the sea I felt my stomach start to get hungry. Changed my clothes and waited for lunch. As the dining table filled with food I couldn't help but to start. When I finished  I went back to reading my book. I read, read and read rest of the day without stopping. The book was starting to get interesting. As I lost track of time the dinner was ready I sat down and started to eat the delicious french fries. When I finished my dinner I had a big desire to sleep so I said goodnight to everyone and went to bed. So that was how my day passed.

Journal Entry ( Climbing a mountain)

Climbing a Mountain
18.08.2016
2016 summer has been a really exciting, adventerous  and exteremly fun experience  for me. The things that made it great were uncountable but one of the main  experience that I had gone trough was climbing a mountain with my friends. The mountain was at the end of the vacation site.Which was close to Marmaris. I was staying there at our summer house as well as my friends did. One day we decided to climb the mountain. The mountain wasn't  steep so we thought it wouldn't be really hard to climb. We all packed our backpacks  and got ready for the adventure we were about to have. As we started to climb the hot sun rays started to hit us in the worst possible way. After a short path which was full of rocks, some of us had already started getting tired. We sat down in a tree shadow and started to eat what we brought. We knew we would want to eat so before we started to climb we got ourselves  small snacks like chips, chocolate and cookies. When everybody finished their snacks we collected our trash and kept going. As we got nearer and nearer to the top the path got more challenging but we gathered  our last strength and kept going. Finally when we reached the most difficult part we decided to continue with a partner to help. So everybody found a partner and proceeded to we were climb by helping each other. After at least half an hour later we were at the top. There was a wild wind  helping us come to life again. The view was charming. Both Aegean Sea and Mediterranean was in the view. After watching the fascinating view we started to take numerous photos of each other and the view. When we realised how late the time was we decided to start to go down. Going down was a lot harder than going up so some of my friends fell but didn't get hurt. We got down from the mountain without stopping. When we were finally arrived there we got on our bikes and rode to the beach we got in to the sea to get refreshed and after that everybody went to their own house. So that was one of my most memorable days I lived in 2016 summer.

Taking Photos (Boat Trip)

Boat Trip
11.08.2016
This photo was taken when I was in a boat trip with my family. We were travelling places as well as sleeping and eating there. İt is a annual thing we do every summer. I really like it and I think that it is really peaceful. İn this photo ı was sitting in the back end of the boat. The view was amazing. the sea was so bright and clean that it looked like bright green . I was wearing comfortable shorts and a shirt, looking at the camera while grabbing the arm of the boat. My legs were hanging from the boat and touching the sea. At the right of the photo there is also a small, white boat.  

Taking photos (Amazon Vacation)


Amazon vacation
        
25.08.2016
 İn 2016 summer while I had been staying in our summer house one of my best friends told me that she was staying really close to where I was and invited me there.We made a plan where I came to the place she was staying and stay there for a couple of days. We had made the plan, now all we had to do was get our parents approval.That was easy, and when it was done packed my bag and got ready to go. Next day I ate my breakfast and we were ready to go. The journey was just one hour with a car. when I got there we  did lots of activities like swimming, canoodling, watching movies.The dinners were great and the rooms that people stayed in was great too. So it really fun but leaving there wasn't much fun. The reason of the title being Amazon Vacation is because the place had been called Amazon.

Taking photos (Trampoline Fun)


Trampoline Fun
27.08.2016
İn 2016  summer I've stayed in our summer house for two months.Having so much fun reuniting with my friends, swimming in the sea and of course as you can see in the picture above jumping in our newly bought trampoline. I spent all day out with my friends doing lots of different activities like climbing a mountain, playing cards all day or just riding our bikes but there were times we got bored and couldn't find anything to do. İn those times we went to my house and jump in the trampoline in turns. We jumped up and down doing all sorts of tricks until we got devastated. So that trampoline was a nice activity we used to distract us.

Alternate Ending to "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire"


     26.08.2016
There Harry was, standing just two feet away from the Triwizard cup with Cedric. It was much more glamorous than he imagined.The cup was pure diamond with a gold text which said TRIWIZARD CUP. Cedric looked paralyzed by the beauty of the cup while his face shone with victory. Harry knew this was not supposed to be his victory, he knew it was supposed to be Cedric's. Finally when Cedric realized he had been staring at the cup for a while, he turned to Harry with begging eyes that said "Can i touch it first?".Harry understood what he had to do."I think you should touch it first."Cedric said.But Harry knew he was just being honorable."I think we should touch it at the same time."said Harry. He started to count to three leaving Cedric no time to speak."On my count"he said."One, two,three".Harry backed away from the cup as he watched Cedric touch it.Then unexpectedly Cedric disappeared into thin air, leaving the cup behind. The cup must have been a portkey he thought.A portkey that brings you to the field where judges and the crowd is. He waited to hear celebration sounds but the silence was not disturbed.He waited and waited even considered trying to find a way back but he just sat there looking at the cup. After a couple of minutes he heard a swoosh sound that made him very confused.Cedric was back. He did not  looked happy nor confused. His eyes were just fixed on Harry and his scar. "What happened, where were you and why isn't the game over?"said Harry but no answer came.Cedric started coming towards Harry as he  pulled his wand out from his pocket. Harry realized the enormous pain his scar was giving him. The pain was getting stronger and stronger as Cedric approached. He knew he was in danger. As Harry pulled out his wand Cedric pointed the tip of his wand to Harry."Expelliarmus" shouted Cedric. A green light came out and hit Harry. He flew back dropping his wand.He felt his weakness growing.He tried to reach for his wand, aimed it towards Cedric and shouted "Expelliarmus".But this time a white light came out and hit Cedric. Harry couldn't think properly. Cedric was trying to kill him. He remembered the instructions they were given before the game started. All he had to do was to send a red spark into the air.Cedric stood up facing Harry. He quickly pointed his wand to Harry and screamed Avada Kedavra.But his aim did not succeed.The light that came out of his wand missed Harry.
Harry quickly got his wand and sent red sparks into the air. One second later Dumbledore had appeared in front of Cedric.It took a moment for Dumbledore to cast the Imperious curse against Cedric.Harry remebered that the Imperious was a curse that allowed the victim to do anything that his controller wanted. He thought who could do such evil magic but only ine name came to his mind. Voldemort . He was really frustrated that he got away again. As he was thinking Cedric was trying to figure out what had happened.

At the end of the tournament the winner was nobody.At least everybody was safe and sound at the end of the year students forgot all about it and they had other subjects to talk about. 

Taking Photos (Mountain Trip)



My Mountain Trip
18.08.2016
This  photo was taken on the top of a mountain. İt was full of rocks shaped like chairs for us to sit. There was a huge turkish flag waving wildly because the sun. Me and my friends wanted to take a group photo before we started to go down. Fortunately someone had brought a selfie stick. We tried to squeeze the stick between the rocks which was extremely hard to balance. After the camera was set everyone found places to pose. We didn't want to make a line so everyone mixed up and found places to sit. After the arrangements were done we took the photo. Because the sun blocked the screen we couldn't see the photo. Sadly the turkish flag which we wanted to include didn't appear in the photo and the camera was facing the rocks more than our faces. The photo is not perfect but its okay.
