Hi there. I guess I forgot to add stuff in here. Well, I need to make up for it, so here it goes:

The bookmobile only started last week, after Kutay and I ordered every book in there according to classes. It was me, Selcen, Deniz and Kutay at first. thought that with as little people as possible, it would be easier to control, though Deniz was sick and Selcen had stuff to do, so only Kutay and I were left. Still, I believe it was a job well done.

I started to progress from negative pull ups. Since I still can't do a full pull up (the result is at the bottom), so I'm thinking of doing a 3/4 pull up where I jump halfway and pull myself up the rest of the way, then slowly go down. I also realized that my handstand balancing is getting better, though I wasn't able to do a workout this Sunday.


Sadly, I wasn't able to go through my online 3D Printing course since I didn't have a ruler and couldn't get a fit test printed during the exam week. Instead I spent my time carving a pumpkin, turning the insides into pumpkin puree for making a pumpkin chia pudding and making the parts of my mummy costume. I'm hoping to have some time for it. I was also thinking of joining the NaNoWriMo this year as well. If it all goes well, I might be able to finish it. It doesn't seem like I will  but I'll try my best


Will I be able to do all my weird plans? Only time will tell. See you next week.

IB: Welcome to CAS

Hi. My names is Zeynep Erdogan and I started IB this year. As you realized already, this is a blog where I'll be putting some info about my CAS activities, so I should probably explain what I'm going to do in CAS.

For the Creativity part I'll be using the STEM club, a club where we try to do helpful or just working mechanics (as total newbies) with the help of research.

For Activity we have a recently made girls basketball team. I also workout separately 3 times a week and run on the other days. I dream of running a marathon one day and do 5 consequent pull ups.

For Service, I'll continue joining our school's weekly Book Mobile service, alongside with anything I think I can help with.

It already looks a bit daunting but since a lot of these activities are nothing new to me, I don't think I'll have much difficulties. Who knows though.

With wishes that I survive IB with a stable psychology...
