Two high school teens, who are best friends, Lara and Revna were continually exploring the beautiful city Istanbul for three years, until Lara had the opportunity to experience a whole one year in Charleston in the USA by AFS Exchange program. But this separation was not the end of their friendship and explorations, unlike it was a beginning. While Revna was continuing to get around in Istanbul's elegant streets, Lara was challenging her with her discoveries in Charleston. And now, after about two years Lara is going to study in the beautiful city Toulouse in France. This is again another beginning of an adventure for these friends after their funny 'intercontinental' competition. Now their page is dedicated to share the colorful memories of their friendship and their new discoveries both in Turkey and France, especially in İstanbul and Toulouse!

CHS 2013 Graduation












Once  American author, Carl Sandburg said: ''Time is the coin of your life. It is the only coin you have, and only you can determine how it will be spent. Be careful lest you let other people spend it for you.'' He was right, time is something that we could never exchange with anybody or we can't buy. 

You have only one chance to use it, you can use it wisely or waste it. 


And if you even want to correct your mistake there is no way back. Briefly If you do something wrong you are screwed. Btw TODAY WAS MY GRADUATION DAY !




Its been 9 months that I've been in Charlie High. I made wonderful memories and made awesome friends. Today showed me that , I made the best decision with joining this program. If I didn't get in this program, I would never have chance to met all these wonderful people. I would never know there was a town called Charleston. I  am thankful to my exchange program that they made me replace with this town. I will be happy for the next /future exchange student who will end up with Chuck town. I remember the first day I came, I was horrified and I wanted this year will be over soon. 



It looked like the longest journey that I could ever make in my life. But it wasn't right. This year was the funnest and sadly shortest year of my life. Everyday was a journey, new words, new tastes, 

new people,new experiences. It amazes me that how things have changed even in 9 months. 


When you are a newbie, you don't understand what is really happening around you. But with time you 

get into the routine and once you found people like you, it changes all. Nowadays , I am done with school and it's really anticlimactic.


 I feel like I need to do homework or I feel sad that now it's sunday because I need to be wake up for  the morning to go school. But it's over and I am leaving in thirty-six day. Thirty six day ! It's nothing ! I am sad, I don't want this to be over, I am not ready yet. Our graduation was at Lantz at EIU. 



The ceremony was almost 3 hours long. Best part was Linnea's speech and the song that we sang with choir for the last time. Linnea gave a really good speech about graduation, It was hilarious. And with choir we sang Seize The Day by Newsies Musical. Newsies was the show that we watched at Broadway when we went to choir trip in spring break. 




My plans for these following weeks are to do my workout almost everyday. I need to loose weight for summer. I gained a lot of weight during my stay in America. Because of all these fast food and grace but I will loose them again. This time I am more determined. Well thats all for now.
Love Lara
