IF I WERE A BOY

If I were a boy just for a day,
I'd go out of the home whenever I am bored
And not get back until I want.

Hang around all day fecklessly
Swear or kick anybody whom I raged at
Because I wonder
'Whether it would work'
'How it could comfort a boy'

If I were a boy
I'd try to understand
Why a boy wants to domainate
Over everything
Especially over a girl
Cause I know how stupid it is
But I don't know how you can see yourself right
Because you are just a boy

If I were a boy
Even just for a day
I'd want to be a girl again
Because all those unjust discrimination
Doesn't mean much for me

If I were a boy
I'd respect a girl
Above all
So she could feel good


If I were a boy
I'd try to understand
Why a boy wants to domainate
Over everything
Especially over a girl
Cause I know how stupid it is
But I don't know how you can see yourself right
Because you are just a boy

It's too late to be regret,
To apoligize, to make up your faults
If you think I have to endure you forever
I should blind to your faults
No, you're mistaken.

But you're just a boy
I know you can't understand your faults
Until she leaves you.
But if you continue this way
You'll always lose.

VIDEO REFLECTION 2

      BEING THE ONLY CHILD OR HAVING A SISTER?

      In the world, the number of children in a family is decreasing day by day. There are many reasons for this. At the beginning of these reasons is monetary problems. Due to the high cost of living, having two or more children seems to be a problem. Moreover, busy job life is one of the problem causing this.  As women going into the business life, looking after children is getting difficult. Because men generally don’t concern their children or don’t help their wives.  As a natural consequence of all these, couples prefer to have one child today. But sometimes, this situation causes some problems.

      Firstly, it may cause to spoiltness. Not only parents but also the other family members are interested in only one child. They buy lots of presents to the child,. Because she is unique in the family, everyone dotes upon her. They accept her all wishes for her happiness. So, child starts to get spoiled. After a while, she gets accustomed to having and doing whatever she wants.

      Secondly, being the only child in a family may cause to selfishness. As far as I observe, tha children who haven’t got any sibling may be selfish or jealous a little bit. If you haven't got a sister or brother, you use all of your belongings on your own. However, the child who has a sibling or more is accostumed to share her dolls,foods,clothes, etc with her siblings. Thus, the child knows what sharing means.



      Finally, from time to time, it may cause to feel lonely.For instance if you have a sister, you can tell everything to her, share your secrets with her, support each other if you need. But children who haven't got any sibling can not do any of them. Also, if the child lose her parents at an accident or something else, she has to stand alone in life. But if she had a sibling, she would recover it more easily, she wouldn’t feel lonely herself, they would support and look after each other.

      To sum up, having at least one sister or brother is better than being the only child in a family. Because, in my opinion, no friend can be replaced by a sister. I have a sister and so I feel so lucky. She is my everything. We share whatever we have each other. We spend very enjoyable time together. Besides we share our problems and comfort one another. As long as she is in my life, I never feel alone. I can say that: Having a sister is never preferred to anything else. :))
