My E-Portfolio

 9th of August was the beginning of something new. I was born and ı had One brother who is two years older than me. He was the most annoying person ı had ever met. At least that what ı thought before primary school. But also he is One of the most precious people in my life. We used to go at one another tooth and nail. It continued until ı went to Darussafaka. It was a surprise for everyone around us. My father's death was an unlooked-for event and my teachers had 4 months to persuade me for the entrance exam. I finally accept to take the exam because ı was shy to my brother's teacher. I was embarrassed to say no. When we were informed that I had passed the exam, everyone was acting like they were happy But ı knew that they were concerning about me whether ı can handle it alone or not. There's no rose without a thorn. Being a boarding school used to seem like a thorn. But it wasn't such a big deal. I got used to it easily. And I have been in Darussafaka for 6 years! I used to be interested in literature and science in middle school But now ı am not keen on literature at all; science, technology, machines, space, and physics are more appealing. I want to be an aircraft engineer and ı hope in the condition I Will write something like this again, ı am going to say that ı achieved my dreams. But all ı can say is that ı turn my deficiencies into advantages and ı am climbing the stairs without a backward glance.
