Get to Know Me

First, I am Merve, and my pronouns are she/her. I'm a 19-years-old English language teaching student from Istanbul, Turkey.
If I must explain myself with just one word it would be "vegan". Not because I want it, but my personality trait is being vegan as it seems. I actually don't say that as I'm introducing myself to new people because I don't need to. If there is no need for people to know my ideological beliefs, then I let them live without knowing it. But I always know someone will absolutely mention it. "Hey guys look! This is Merve, the vegan one!" Thanks, now everybody thinks that I'm going to judge them. So, they feel like they have to justify themselves before I start lecturing. Thanks a lot, literally...
Besides that, I can openly say that I have a HUGE addiction. I'm addicted to social media or, I don't know, I might be addicted to the whole Internet as well. Yet, that's a long story that dates back to 2002. I have been using the Internet since day one. I cannot say letting a kid use a computer since they were born was the best decision my parents have ever made but, to be honest, they made many worst decisions...
I wasn't even properly read and write, and I have seen things that no other human being should see. Like, there was no Deep Web because everything was at the surface. But I also had so many good experiences. Such as meeting new, amazing people around the world, talking, sharing, bonding, and finding myself with the help of them. That's why I am not regretting using the Internet at a really young age. Yes, I might have seen horrible things, but if I didn't have access to the Internet, I would be a completely different person. I'm pretty sure this version of me is better than how I would become without the Internet.
Wow looks like I had to dump all these things. But I should cut it out now... I have been writing a little informal as this is an "About" page. Yet, as this blog is for my class, I will most likely be more formal than usual while posting. To be honest, I don't really want to do that as I want to be relaxed and not stressing out just because I have to post something. But, of course, we'll have to wait and see.
Come along for the ride, we're going on a journey!
