My Nightmares are Back!

My dear friends! You know, since I joined EC, I have never slept well and I have seen a lot of different nightmares. This time my nightmare was mostly provoked by your typos. You know that English spelling is not a piece of cake. Only one wrong vowel may change the meaning of a word and a whole sentence. So, here are the words and expressions that made me see one more nightmare.

How to live in peace (Men's Secret)

Do you have any problem in your family? Are you regularly fighting with your wife? Can't you sleep well? Do you like to solve your problem? Do you like to live peacefully with your wife? So, no tension, just follow my formula. 

Formula No 1: If you do any fault or if you have any wrong, say sorry. For Example, suddenly you have forgot your wife's birthday and forget to wish her, say sorry. Suddenly if you misbehave with her, say sorry. If you failed to keep any promise, say sorry. If you were not

2347463678?profile=originalThese days I am staying away from my family for a job assignment. First few days gone nice, but subsequently started to feel lonely.

I am really missing my kids and wife desperately. Last night this loneness was so intense that I could not have slept. To divert my mind, watched movies and listen to motivational speaker.

This has somewhat relived me but the intense feeling of solitude still there in my mind.

      Our abilities to express ourselves in words  , always surmount our capacity  to do things  . Let me  , say this differently  the gap between what we say and what we do . 

         This is an innate part of our humanity  , a thing that we shouldn't  shy away from , and it isnt a defect at all . Our imagination  via our language as an alluring  tool of communication , exceeds   what we are able to do . In general people accept childish  lies as a sign of brain thriving . But on the other hand

Chapter five:  After a busy day 2

Fortunately, the way to the house is not so far.
Still holding onto their hands, they run across the sand and reach the door before the sky opens all its doors.

Caroline laughs and shakes her hair.
The raindrops look like bright shining pearls or small diamonds on her red hair.
Her voice sounds happily and soft.

Inside the house, they close the windows and Bodi go to the kitchen. He comes back with mugs of tea.

Only a small lamp lights off the dark room.

Bodi enters the kitchen. His face is shaved and his smell is fresh like soap. Caroline puts huge beef steaks on two plates with roasted potatoes. There is also a plate with vegetables and a bowl of salad on the table.

“Would you like to drink something, Bodi?” asks Caroline.
“I don’t have a beer but I can offer you some water, self-made lemonade, and red wine."

“It does not matter, Caroline, give me a glass of red wine, please. By the way, the food looks tasty

These are my thoughts as I needed to write down. They are by no means meant to hurt or even less point fingers at others. 

Human psychology is a very interesting but very complicated thing. How does minds works? Who decide how minds works? Out coming impressions?

Who decides what is good or what is bad? What makes me a better person than you? Or you a better person than me?

Chapter Three:  The next day

"What for a smell?", thinks Caroline and opens her eyes. "It smells tasty!".
She jumps with a set from her bed and rushes to the bathroom.
After having a shower, she puts on white pants and a lovely white long blouse, puts a little rouge on her cheeks and rushes downstairs to the kitchen.
She stops in front of the open kitchen door. With wide opening eyes, she looks at the picture what she sees.


Bodi bakes pancakes. A smell of coffee is in the air and smells delicio

Here are the list and reviews of top 11 best TOEFL iBT books for 2017.


1. The Official Guide to the TOEFL Test

There are three good things about the Official Gide:

+ 1. It has the most truthful description of what you see on the TOEFL iBT

+ 2. The practice sets at the ends of the chapters

+ 3. The three practice tests on CD (and in the back of the book)
But none of it is perfect, oddly. The description of the test comes with almost no strategy or advice. For example, there is nothing about skippin
