USE OF IDIOMS

Yesterday I was as busy as a bee, occupied throughout the day in my office.   I came back completely exhausted and wimpy.  The drag TV programs could not keep me awake for long and I didn’t know when I was zonk out.

I was floating high as a kite in my dream, feeling myself as light as a feather,  then all of a sudden I felt a sudden change in my surrounding, the room was filled with the similar fragrance. 

“How are you?” My heart started beating with pleasure, hearing her melodious vo

Sprint to the finish line

I call this month's blogging challenge  'Blog June', while our admin Tara refers to it as 'June Blogathon'. I'm glad that Tara likens it to a marathon, a race in which people run a distance of 42km. 

Does this busy month feel like a long-distance race?  To most of us, this month's intensive writing training may feel as tiring or strenuous as a marathon. 

Now, we're running the last lap, and we need to sprint or burst to the finish line. There are still a few days to go before we cross the line, so

This is my 20th blog for this month's writing challenge. I never published so many blogs in a month, though.

I'm so pleased that so many bloggers have participated in this month's blogging challenge, and so many blogs have been published this month - I myself have posted 20 blogs, not to mention Mishaikh and Seeker, who have published even more blogs. I'm so pride of you all. 

As the blog moderator here, I don't think we published as many blogs in any other month. So, I'm sure we're bound to break

My surrounding

I am sitting in front of my desk in my dark room. In the daylight this room could become so dark because the only light is coming from my laptop’s screen and in the night I turn on the lamp which is hanging under the roof. The large of my room is no more than 2,5 M X 3 M, a half of it occupied by many boxes contain my old books, toys, dolls and stuffs from my childhood. They are well arranged behind me.

There is a bookshelf by my right side, it has 4 piles. The lowest pile is place

Description of weather of the week and how we react to it: (Just from my imagination)

Autumn is at the brink, farewelling the summer’s hot days. This week the weather is changing very uncertainly. On Monday, it was cold and cloudy. The girls were wearing hats and had umbrellas. Next day it was raining cats and dog, so most of the people were wearing rain coats. On Wednesday, the weather was very cold. The women were wearing sweaters. Today, (Thursday) it is raining again and the weather is very c

Describing hair style

The woman with long straight black hair is having lunch in a café with a bald man. There is also a couple with them. The girl has short blond hair, yes she does not have long hair while the boy is clean shaved.  I have long curly brown hair, and I feel that my hair is much nicer than that lady.  I do not like short blonde straight hair. Who is bald? Only the guy with the lady is bald.

A business Trip

Last week I went to another city on a business trip. I checked in at the hotel reception. After making all the necessary entries, the receptionist gave the card key of my room. I went to the room, and first thing I did was, I took a shower, then I ordered the room service to bring my lunch into my room, meanwhile I sat on the bed and worked on my laptop. I did not use hotel computer. While having my lunch I also got my working paper ready for the meeting I was going to attend. The

Learning of English

The main goal is fluency. Remember that you don't have to know many complex grammatical structures to achieve that goal. First of all try to speak as fluent as possible (even making some grammar mistakes). Then, after making  speaking fluent, you can focus on grammar aspects.

Many people think that knowing a lot of words is a key to fluent speaking. It's true. However, there are many people who have wide idiolect and problem with fluency. They try to learn more and more words b

Anybody's guess

The idiom 'anybody's guess' means nobody knows. 

Do you think it's now anybody's guess how many blogs will have been published by the end of this month? Do you think we can make it

We thought the record was 460 blogs a month, and now we think the record might be 580, which may sound so daunting or so unbelievable. In fact, our admin Tara is trying to make sure we know exactly what the record is. Maybe we have already broken the record, which also is anybody's guess. 

We should keep writing, even

A short story ( part-1)

There were colors in the sky, music in the air! Yes, it was a wholesome evening. Tatiana just returned from her class. And,  weekends was starting from next day. So, she thought she could get some free time for herself.

She was thinking what she should do fast. Nowadays, she could not eat anything. Everything which was served in their hostel- canteen seemed tasteless. Then, she decided to go to a restaurant to have snacks with her friend.

She rang and told him to come sharp, she felt really hungry

PARTING OF THE BELOVED

Just only one scene, indicates a full life full of torturing pain of parting, but even though, sometimes meeting would be more torturing than parting, as parting after meeting, after uniting, is just a mere hell........no human can tolerate.....
Just as if saying for her lover "Do not feel sad for not meeting me, maybe seeing my tears in leaving tear you.........and I may bear my own pain.......but how could I bear yours.............."
Pyramids are great graves for kings,

INNOCENT DAGGER

Sometimes we simply say ,”I am deleting you from my friends list, Or “I am deleting you from my life” .  So simple and plain words, but so sharp in cutting the heart.  I have heard these words from the one who claimed ones that she loved me out of all bounds, out of all normalcies, out of all norms and ethics of prevailing rule of love on earth.  I got steered, stared the screen of monitor in disbelief, tried hard to convince that there must be some misunderstanding, but all the i
