Reflection Task 1b

  

     Hi everyone! Today I want to mention my best mate, Tolga YILMAZ. I guess, I can’t think of anyone but Tolga when I try to find a person who is not famous but I think should be. He is the embodiment of determination and success. So, I asked him for an interview in order to share with you and he gladly accepted. He was born on March 21st, 1995, in Havza. During his childhood he was always a good son to his parents, and mean to his cousins. He went to Mehmet Öngel Primary School and he was really successful there. His teachers liked him very much but his friends’ feelings were quite the opposite. I don't know whether that was because he was taller than all his friends or because he was more successful than all of them put together. His parents and relatives always wanted him to be a doctor but his interest was mainly in English and other foreign languages so he ignored their wishes. As to his high school years, we were in the same school: Amasya Anatolian Teacher Training High School. He was very successful in high school too, scoring an average of 98 points in all of his English exams. He was ambitious, he still is. He succeeded in all his goals in high school, too. There was nothing he wanted but wasn't able to do. He always urged me to study but I'm a lazy person so I never studied as much as he wanted. His latest goal was to enter Boğaziçi University and again he succeeded. Except his accomplishments, he was always a good friend. He built morale to me when I was feeling down. He was helpful and sincere. He has a good sense of humour and his ability to comment is superb. He has a wide general knowledge.  Being an high achiever, he never wanted a modest life; he always wanted the best, which is why I believe he deserves to be famous. He studies Translating and Interpreting Studies in Boğaziçi University at the moment and wants to be the best at his job in the future. Surely that’s something that any one of us desire, but I'm sure he will succeed in this, too.
