Random Classical Portrait of the day

Before the session After the session

After such an enjoyful conference, we as

journo team felt the necessity of showing

our appreciation to special people who

gave us their helping hands during this

session:

Special Thanks To:Neven for keeping us awake with 24/7 live Polish music banging in our ears whenever we might fall asleep,

reminding us his name every single time we call him and inventing weird games to keep us dynamic. Yeah, row

row row your boats gently(!) down the stream...

The precious delegates who didn’t stare blankly at us when we were sneaking towards them with peculiar

questions like “How do you think the dragons reproduce?” (We’re glad to reveal that it was Neven’s idea so put the

blame on him, not us:P)We also thank them for providing us materials to fill the issue with by giving crazy poses

and most importantly of all, the GOSSIPS.

The beloved chairpersons for answering our questions immediately (except one of the Swedish guys...hint: he’s

not a journo), for making our job easier for instance by not hesitating to show their underwear or letting the

pictures of their butt to be taken. (oh, you wonder who he is?just check out the paper)

The orga(y)s for letting us steal food during the coffee break, keeping us fed and plump, for letting us in orga

room when we waited for hours (!) to make interviews with people and again for cheering us up with loony poses.

Our beautiful editress Ipek for keeping Neven calmed down and providing a balance. Joking apart, we really

appreciate what our beloved editors did for us and spent their hours trying to put what we’ve done together and at

the same time acting as entertainers.

The richness of moustache of The Random Turk of the Day and of Oðulcan’s chest hair. No need for telling the

reason...We couldn’t have

made it without ’em.

The Mahmut who still

maintained his shape after all

those kisses he got and for

being such a charming award.

Our lovely members of the

board Ezgi, Ceyda and Begüm

for basically everything...

And last but surely not least

most special thanks go to the

whole EYP family for making

this conference meaningful

from the beginning.

Red Carpet 1,5 m X 20 m Night!

During the ‘Red Carpet’

night all delegates

where transferred to

a 3-floor restaurant

boat! Sometimes it’s

impossible to imagine

where you can find

yourself due to EYP!

The Bosporus was calm and

we travelled in circles

around Bogazici Koprusu!

Many exciting events took

place on the boat! Firstly,

there was a voting

procedure for the most

Gobble Gobble picture. The

winner was Dimitris (GR)

and his prize was the

exclusive and very rare

opportunity to have a

journo as a slave for one

day! Fortunately for us,

Dimitris did the right choice by preferring a

healthy guy from Croatia called Never(n), who

happens also to be our editor! The concept

had an immediate effect as you can see in the

photo (photo1)!

Moreover there were several contests that we

all enjoyed! It was the creativity of the journo

team that made the difference... The whole

event was called Mahmut Awards and the

winners were selected by voice and table

noise! We don’t take any responsibility for the

results:

Tony as the coolest chair,

Anil and Barbaros as the coolest chairs,

Lukas for having the longest male hair,

Edward as the most royal chair,

IMCO and LIBE 2 as the best committees,

Busru for possessing the highest heels,

FINLAND as the blondest delegation and

‘I wish I could remember’ for the shortest

skirt!

As I walked into the press room

for the last time this morning, I was so

sad and yet excited that we were there to

do the last issue of the session. I could

remember the first day and all the

excitement everyone had. They were all

so ready to meet new people and get the

EYP spirit again! The CJO (Chair-Journo–

Orga) Team was more than prepared to

make sure all the delegates were going to

have the fun of their lives and the

delegates couldn’t be more ready to get to know everyone and

have fun but still do some serious work on their resolutions.

As time went by, we became closer and shared most of

the secrets we had never told to anyone. We finally got the EYP

spirit but as all other things, this session also has an end, which

we weren’t ready to face.

Today, I know that at the end of the GA, we will all be

recalling the best memories from the conference we have. The

funny moments and the smiles, the secrets we shared and of

course the group hugs and the tap on the shoulders. I know I

will, I know we all will… But after a while of PED (Post-EYP-

Depression) we will be meeting at another conference in another

country or even another continent. All we have to do is to keep

in touch and continue the EYP spirit.

Take care everyone; hope to see you in another conference

yet to come…

By Alca on behalf of all the journo team.

Out of boredom...

Right now we are sitting in the press room which has been

invaded by chairs hungry to write a resolution for their

committees. It’s 23:39. Velimir right beside us is so bored that

what he is doing is research for histories of ex-Yugoslavian

countries which basically

have the same histories.

However, he is devilishly

enjoying the somehow

modified-by-each-nation

facts and is comparing the

different stories emerging

from the same basis. It’s

nonsense. And as Leonie

expressed herself clearly

“We couldn’t care less.”

By NehiC & Leonie

Nappy timeSleep is like the dragon - it

is rumored to exist, but I

doubt I will see any.

As the session progresses, more and

more EYP’ers can be found sleeping

on couches, in the busses and in

other random places. The lack of

sleep is taking its toll.

Some are lucky enough to do a nap without being seen by

the all-noticing journo team, however… these poor boys and

girls were unable to escape from the camera:

Late night Qoutes“I can smell my own smell, and it doesn’t feel well.”

Adam, 21:07

“I’ll just show you where my grandfather lives.” Velimir,

00:04

“They have 6 different official languages which are

practically the same and it’s not even a country.”

Velimir, 23:30

“There’s a limit up to which it hurts the most and then

you go numb. It’s like that when you’re bored. If you’re

in the most boring situation possible you’ll have fun with

it, which is exactly what you’re doing.” Nehir, 00:29

“Do you know that there are 931 male babies and 885

female babies right now in Kikinda? Don’t you feel like

it’s all finally making sense, and your life has a

purpose?” Velimir, 00:37

“There are 3 fishermen in Kikinda. And one is a

woman.” Velimir, 00:38

“Do you know how many fishing ships Slovenia has? It’s

like this, uh!” (showing number 2 with his fingers)

Neven, 01:00

“How is this guy American? What was his name? Cyrus

Hemlin...oh okay.” Velimir, 01:00

“It used to be the street where your grandfather lives

now. There’s a war there... No, it’s a market actually.”

Nehir, 01:11

Ezgi: People, wait, I have to check the first one!

Anonymous: It arrived!

Chairs: YMCA!

Nehir: Why are we gay!?

“We couldn’t bullshit more.” (whatever that means)

Nehir,10:09.

Apology of this issue goes to Seda

for managing to forget to include her

signature twice! - in the DROI-IMCO

article and the Orga(y)s do rock

And for category “the biggest number of silly

pictures” Mahmut goes to...

3rd Istanbul Youth Forum, Robert College, Istanbul, April 2008 5

Always sophisticated and noble,

unofficially also known as 008!

Always unsophisticated an absolutely

not noble, this duo can talk you into

lap-dancing with no problem

What a smile. He must be

using Collgate!

Examining the back of the laptop, Thanos can

fix any technical problem (except ours) with

ease!

Rowing on dry land has

been our favourite past

time activity! Other than

journing, of course.

Extremly

unsophisticated an even more absolutely

not noble, the lady of The Long Tongue

Niff,

Niff,

So What?

day in his natural environment.

Gobble - Gobble will never sound the same again

What do you think, why journos spend

so much time in a pressroom and so

little with their committee...

Yes, that is a smile on the last day of the

long session...

Fearless even in front of “Eye of

the Harm”

Her computer is her best friend.

They even sleep together!

Niff, niff

Niff, niff
