Our Pirate Story

Sit kids, I’m gonna tell you a little story… about how I got my wooden leg.

kids:ugh for the seventh time??!

captain: It gets better every time doesn’t it?:D

-------------------------------------------scene change--------------------------------------------------------------

Today was it. Today was the day I would finally get out of this floating hell. As the

cleaner, I was going up the stairs to the upper deck from my rotten cabin. I was worn-out of cleaning the toilets every single day. But today was going to be my escape from the monotone awful life of mine. I started cleaning while singing.

‘’Aye Mitchell singing with your terrible voice won’t make those loos get any less dirtier!’’ said Bruce.

‘’Yeah mind your own business Bruce!’’

‘’You’ll clean toilets forever! ahahahahha’’

‘I couldn’t help but laugh

‘hah! you think?’

I was thinking

‘’Hah! I’ll never have to see these filthy people again!... I hope.’’

‘’GOOD MORNING! GOOD MORNING!’’

I grinned as I heard the only source of joy I had in that  hideous place. Biscuit came flying and landed on my sore shoulder.

‘’We’re going to fly away from this hell today.’’

I whispered to him.

‘’FLY AWAY FROM THIS HELL! FLY AWA-’’

‘Are you out of your mind?!’’

I shutted him down. I saw the second captain staring at me but then he rolled his eyes and looked away. Phew! It wasn’t ruined at all I guess.

When the sun went down, my plan was up. I slowly sneaked out of my cabinet to go to the life-saving boat.PÜSKEVİT was already waiting outside of the cabinet. We tiptoed to the small orange boat. I was shocked. I stopped with fear and astonishment when I saw the captain standing in the boat. It was over. Everything was ruined.  Suddenly the captain took out his gun and pointed it towards me. I gulped and I couldn’t move. ‘’Where do you think you’re going Mitch!?’’

He spitted and then grinned. My ears exploded just like my heart was goin to in seconds. It was as if the time slowed down. What? Suddenly I saw feathers flying in the air. Blue, yellow, green feathers with red blood covered. ‘’noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!’’

I screamed my parrot was dead. Then I heard another fire shot. This time it was me. I was shot in my left leg. OUCH!  

And see kids, that’s the story of how I got my wooden leg.

kids:wait what happened after?!  What happened to the captain? How are you alive?

        

Well, that’s another story.

Why I hate school but love education

Schools kill our creativity. Schools just a dump of concrete. Creativity can't born from a dump they just destroy our creativity. If schools if not school world'll be more creative and more successful. He talked about great mans and their success. He is thinking education is a key for success but school is obstacle for this way. He is talking about schools are a obstacle why he going to school and why he shoot a video front of a school?

In Praise of the Useless

I believe you know, you sit a bank front of sea, you see eternal horizon and waves. Waves hit to seaside. You hear a sweet, perfect voice. That is a rustle but that voice have a sense for you. It is your inside voice. Here, these quotations was a sea rustle for me. When I read these sentences I felt very big thing in my chest, that wasn't happiness, that wasn't sadness, that wasn't excitement... That was all things. I believe the this speech, to Mike Hays. Our student life is hardest student life at world and good parts that we left behind may come to rescue to add dimension to our life, to make our life richer. Also I believe these quotation'll change my life.

Voices and Thoughts

We closed our eyes and we listened the outside. A word came to my mind; 'sleep'. I almost sleep. We were write a poem about our word and we did but I did write a very different poem. My poem isn't about sleep. My poem have love, missing, hope. There are everything but sleep. I'm going to share with you my poem, it is Turkish, I hope you will love it.

Sen ne güzel şeysin öyle
Beni benden alan
İnsanın ruhunu çalan
Kendimi bildim bileli
Görmedim böylesine ebedi
Sonsuzluğa doğru bir yolsun
Hayatım yok çünkü sen yoksun
Bir gül bahçesinde
Seninle beraber yerde
Hayal et, düşün
Ne kadar fazla ünün
Bu böyle, senden kaçış yok
Adeta vurdun kalbime bir ok
Artık sen sen değilsin
Unutamam senin sevgin.

Book Conversations

-11/22/63
-"Sometimes, we can think; "some events is bad" but we can't know they are good events for us.
-We did a good and funny discussion at story circle, almost everyone shared their books and quotes. I realized there were very different quotes and books. I shared my book, too. My book was 11/22/63 by Stephen King, I was read this book at 2011 and this is my second favorite book. It is about date of assasiante of Kenedy.

Support or Push?

We watched this video and we read this blog. Also, our teacher asked to us; what we prefer, support or push,both of them, vşdeo and blog, was about support and push. I think support is better, because support is first, if didn't work that time you can do push. Anyway, especially video affected me because that was true, that was life, I think this video has very deep meaning. It isn't just a teaching. It was making feel to person very complicated emotions. Blog was good and it has deep meanning, too. But, I dunno, it was unnecessary and it isn't very affecting. I didn't like it so much.

My Bucket List

We watched this video, this video about the bucket list of 4 years old child. Purpose of this video was about dirtiness water but actually it was telling a bucket list, his bucket list was awesome, I liked it. After we watched the video we did a fishbowl, it was like a sharing circle and we shared 3 things in the our bucket list. I heard very interesting things. Here my bucket list:

-Read the whole books of Stephen King

-Take some drug before I die

-Sexual intercourse

I learnt somethings about myself. I wonder the banned things and I wrote the sexual intercourse because I wonder, everyone said, how can say it this is shame but I don't scare tell the truths.

Rhoda Meets Rhoda

http://www.sinemalar.com/film/148697/another-earth

Rhoda shocked. She was looking to her. She was exactly same. Same face, same body. How? How she came to her earth? Suddenly, she understood. She had kill anyone at the another earth and she had not give the ticket to anyone and now she was find her. Rhoda wasn't know what she should do. There is a very rough silent and Rhoda opened her arms to both two sides and steped to second Rhoda.

That moment she felt a heat on her chest. Her dress was soaked. Her body began to weaken. Her legs was weaken and the blood was flowing to ground. Second Rhoda was shot to Rhoda. She was crying and she was holding a gun on her hand.

Rhoda fell to ground. She was trying take breath. She used her last power and said: "Why...? Wh...?" She couldn't talk and croughed. Rhode Two came close to Rhoda and explained: "How? How you could this? Did you killed a family, really? You drunk! You drunk and killed two life! You're murderer, you don't deserve to live."

"How? Lea...rn?" and vomited some blood.

"While I'm waiting a man closed to me. His name is John. Do you remember? He said; 'You killed my family' I wasn't understood at the first time but he explained to me every-thing. Go to hell!" and shot. Then came one more time and one and one. She shot six times and Rhoda had died. 

Now, there was one more step. She inserted the gun into her mouth.
