UK'S TOP YOUNG SCIENTIST!!

Science in this world is being developed every single day. Scientists invent or discover to make our lives more qualified and easier. And a lot of scientists won prizes, awards after their great inventions. Now it is the new generation's turn.

A seventeen-year-old school girl Kirtana Vallabhaneni won the National Award of Science because of her research project aimed at identifying the harmful cells that cause pancreatic cancer! She was awarded the prize at The Big Bang Fair at Birmingham' NEC.

It is very good to have those young scientists who make a very good contribution to the humanity and world.

Here is the link for those who are willing to read the article!!!!

HALF TERM!

Hi Everyone! :)

It is already February and March is coming soon! I cannot believe that nearly 2 months of 2012 has already passed. I am now on Half Term holiday and I am back in Turkey which is usually sunny (but yesterday it rained!). I am going back to school on Saturday and looking forward to be back in England. I really missed that cold weather.

2012  has already started to fill and overload its event list by the tragic death of Whitney Houston, the political problems in Syria, growing economic crisis... I hope nothing worse will happen. I want to see an amazing world which is full of positive developments and smiling faces. But I know that only Pollyanna can think that everyone would be very happy or a world without evil. It is just a dream. However, people should motivate themselves and they should find a way of looking at life in a positive and a realistic way. I personally found a simple way of it: Reading quotes of some well known philosophers, politicians, artists, writers, poets, scientists... I would like to share some of them with you and wish everyone a very good half term! I know that most of the students in the UK will have school exams right after the holiday. I wish them luck and hope these quotes will motivate you! :)




Knowing is not enough; we must apply.
Willing is not enough; we must do.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe





A wise man is superior to any insults which can be put upon him, and the best reply to unseemly behavior is patience and moderation.
Moliere 





A dreamer is one who can only find his way by moonlight, and his punishment is that he sees the dawn before the rest of the world.
Oscar Wilde






I will continue to post some interesting quotes as I find them! Have a lovely half term and best wishes to you :)
