Turkey

Well my Eurpoean country I did was Turkey. It sounds really nice to go to and the people there sound really nice. Their religion are Roman Catholic but majority of them are Mulism. This country is also known for Noah the Ark because it is told that his ark stopped on the tip of the second highest mountain point in Turkey. the climate there is some what mild but could get a little cold and a little hot. The topography are most of Turkey that lies within an earthquake zone. Turkey has low, rolling hills of turkish Thrace and also a fertile river. Here are some pictures of Turkey.

People I always Look Up to

Hi! Today I have to talk about the people I look upto. So the two most important people I always look up to are Marilyn Monroe, Sophia Loren, and Judy Garland. I think they inspire me because Judy loved being an actress and I've always wanted to become an actress just like her. And now Marilyn, even though she drank till she died I loved her musics she had made. My favorite song is, " Diamonds Are A Girls Best Friend." that song really got me about diamonds and how she like wanted them. I think when I grow up I might want a Marilyn Monroe piercing as well. Sophia Loren is also one of them because she is the one person my mom really adored and that is who I was named after.
