I want to tell you a funny story about my childhood.
When I was a child, there were street-vendors who were selling perfumes. We used to call them perfumer-man (Turkish "Kokucu Amca"). They were carrying a box which contained perfume bottles and they were selling those perfumes. Sometimes they were waiting on the street for a long time to sell their perfumes.
When I was about 7 years old, I went shopping with my father in Tire, my hometown. My father went to the nearest perfume-vendor to buy a perfume. It was the first time I saw a perfume-vendor. They talked a little and my father wanted to buy a few mini-bottles. The perfume-vendor had a lot of big bottles of perfume and a big metal syringe(needle). He poured perfume from a big bottle into a smaller bottle by using that syringe. Anyway, it was done... Suddenly I noticed that the perfume-vendor was coming near me with his syringe! He kept coming closer and closer... Oh my God! At that time I rushed out to street and started to run. I had forgotten my father there! I had run home madly.
Ten minutes later, my father came home. He said: "What happened? Why did you run away and leave me there?" I said: "The perfume-vendor wanted to inject me in my head!" My father laughed very hard and said "He didn't want to inject you. He just wanted to spray a little perfume on you so your hair would smell nice, and you thought he wanted to inject you in your head, ha!"
I admit that I really thought that. I was afraid of injections even if I got ill and needed to be injected.

Incident from Childhood: The Mysterious Tree House Adventure
Once upon a time, during my childhood, there was a mysterious tree house that stood tall in the middle of the enchanting forest near my home. This tree house had always intrigued me, and I had often wondered what secrets it held within its wooden walls. One sunny afternoon, my curiosity got the better of me, and I decided to embark on an unforgettable adventure.
The Discovery
While exploring the forest with my friends, we stumbled upon a hidden path that led us straight to the intriguing tree house. Excitement filled the air as we cautiously approached the entrance, wondering what awaited us inside. With hearts pounding, we took a deep breath and pushed open the creaking door.
The Enchanted Interior
To our astonishment, the interior of the tree house was like a magical wonderland. Sunlight streamed through the colorful stained glass windows, casting vibrant hues onto the wooden floor. We marveled at the shelves lined with ancient books, each seemingly holding endless stories and secrets.
The Mysterious Map
As we explored further, we stumbled upon a dusty old desk. Upon it lay a crumbling map, adorned with cryptic symbols and markings. Our curiosity peaked, and we became determined to decipher its hidden message. With the map in hand, we embarked on a quest to unravel the secrets of the forest.
The Treacherous Journey
Following the map's intricate directions, we trekked through dense foliage, crossed rushing streams, and climbed towering cliffs. It was a challenging and treacherous journey, but our determination pushed us forward. Our senses heightened as we drew closer to our destination, anticipation pulsating through our veins.
The Hidden Treasure
Finally, after what seemed like an eternity, we reached a clearing bathed in golden sunlight. Gasping in awe, we discovered a hidden treasure chest nestled amidst a bed of wildflowers. With trembling hands, we unlocked the chest and were greeted by a dazzling array of jewels, coins, and ancient artifacts. Our eyes widened with amazement as we realized the true magnitude of our discovery.
A Bond Forged
The adventure not only led us to a hidden treasure but also forged an unbreakable bond among us. We had shared the thrill of uncovering the unknown, overcoming obstacles, and embracing the wonders of the world together. From that day forward, our friendship grew stronger, and the memory of our tree house adventure remained etched in our hearts forever.
In Conclusion
This childhood incident taught me the value of curiosity, friendship, and the joy of exploration. It sparked a lifelong passion for adventure and discovery. The mysterious tree house became a symbol of the endless possibilities that await those who dare to explore beyond the familiar.
