THE IRONIC CONFLICT

            There was the conflict between a noisy crowd in the street and the violinist derisively on a typical gloomy day in London. Furthermore, the main feature of the picture is that the street musicians performed their music as if they protested to the violinist. The violinist, who was the member of the British Royal orchestra, rehearsed before the concert; nonetheless, he was disturbed because of the noise coming from outside. He stopped to  play violin and he looked outside the window by frowning. Moreover he held both hands on his ears since he did not want to be hear the noise. Actually, he did not get angry due to noise of inhabitants of London. He was only plague street musicians on account of creating noise pollution. On the other hand street musicians made music by ignoring the people around them and they seemed to combat with the violinist to prove their superiority.

                                                  CLOUDS

It was 27^th September. I cannot remember the year. She was trying to wake up like every day she does. She snoozed her alarm clock and slept for ten minutes. After the second snooze she finally woke up.  Then she went to toilet and washed her face. When she looked through the mirror she noticed that her face was blooding! It was horrible because she could not see her face because of the blood. She touched her face and cleaned the blood. She finally could see her eyes. When she saw them, she noticed that she forgot the real color of her eyes. Then she left the bathroom and run to the sitting room because there was voice from there. As soon as she arrived there, she saw that the TV was opened and she looked at it. She was shocked! She closed her eyes and reopened again to see clearly, no there were no differences. She did not make a mistake, it was she! She was on the TV and police were searching her. She tried to raise the volume of the TV but she could not. She could just watch herself on TV but with doing anything. She touched her face before looked her hand if bleeding stopped or not. It was decreasing but her heart attack was increasing. She could not understand anything and decided to go to the doctor to show her face but what if police were going to arrest her? Although she did not know anything about her hunting, she was scared. There was nothing to do and she finally decided to leave home and see a doctor.  While she driving, she saw many cabs but she could escape from them. She achieved to arrive. She ascended the stairs and opened the doctor’s door without knocking. Doctor was surprised because it was not allowed to enter without knocking. As soon as he started to shout at her, she cut his speech and told that she had bleeding. The doctor saw what she said and told his patient that he should leave for few minutes. He examined her and wanted some examinations. She waited for hours and everything culminated. The doctor called her and said to her to sit. He started his speech;

-Have you ever talked with yourself?

-Are you kidding? She replied, I was thinking that I am here for examination!

-You should calm down, I am a doctor and also your doctor you should just answer my question, have you ever tried to touch yourself? Do you really care yourself? You are here because there was something wrong with your body and you thought that if you had not gone to doctor, you would have died. So you scared to die.

-A…Uuuh..Well…I cannot reply you doctor, I cannot.

-If you are really afraid of death, I think you are, it means that you love living and do not want to leave. But if you really do, you should have already answered my questions. You hushed yourself… Let’s get back to the examinations. There is no problem. You just ignore yourself and it is mad at you. That is all. Bleeding is just your body’s reaction. It tries to say something. I will give you a prescription. Try to do it.

He elongated the prescription and there is just a word that written on it;

“LISTEN.”

She drove home. She thought all along the road. When she arrived home she immediately opened the TV and looked for her news but there was not anything about her.

She went to her bed and slept. The day after, she wanted to go to the doctor again, she had many questions. They had really long conversation and she realized that because of her hunger of seeing herself, she just imagined that she was on the TV. The bleeding is just about her eyes, she looked her eyes after a long period and her body wanted to tell her something. That was all. She was relaxed now and after these experiences she started to be more sensitive to herself. There was long and perfect way which is waiting for her. When she realized that, she could start to walk. Clouds the rest...

  By the way, I guess you have been wondering about the information of ‘her’. Maybe you thought that I forgot to give her a name or I forgot to start. No, I did not. Of course she has a name but I do not know her name because I do not know your name. What is your name?

Cartoons‘ Effects on Education

        

Nowadays, cartoon sector is improving and the television channels spend lots of money for the cartoons. Maybe lots of people watches cartoons for spend time or having fun but researchers don’t agree them. Researchers says that, almost every cartoon teach us something. We can’t realize maybe but when we think about it they are right. For example, there is no crime or bad words in the cartoons. Cartoon characters are always helpful and giving a good messages about the world. If there are bad things on the cartoon, it effects directly to children’s daily life. For example, when I was a child there was a cartoon it’s called Pokemon lots of children things that they can fly or they have special ability and it caused their life and in Europe Pokemon banned from the TV channels because in Europe almost everybody things cartoon characters are really good role-model for the children. We need to be careful before let our children watch TV because they can learn everything from the TV. No one can deny TV’s effects on children education.
