PRIDE

We live in a small village in Ödemiş, İzmir. Almost all families in here earn their keep from farming and stockbreeding.These are really hard works and require labor force. So children have to help their families in fields. Because of this, these children don't pay any attention to their lessons. However this is becacuse the families can't understand the importance of school and they don't encourage their children. My primary school was not really good and most of frieds don't continue their education life. Under these circumstance I went to a good high school. My family were really proud of me and they always supported me . So I tried to do my best and got a high degree at there. After that I won the universtiy and now I am in METU. There was nobody who could go such a good univestiy like me in my village. So everybody talked about me and this appeals to me. Because my family gets happy when they heard my achievements. So I feel good when I think that I can do my best in order not to disappoint them.
