Hi friends!

I hope that you find the previous posts useful in the way that you are now a bit more confident in talking/ writing about crime and the law :) Sometimes in the future, I may mention this topic again to revise those words as well as add some more new words. 

But now, let's move on to something more thrilling!

Love? Hmm.

Or maybe Travel :D

Yeh, I'll go for Travel because tomorrow I'll fly to Thailand and get so excited right now hihi \m/ \m/

The Dog

2346798751?profile=originalIt has been a long time I didn't signed in here in EC. But as I am really fond of writing and as a member I can write here!

Well, it's been 1 year I started photography as my hobby. And if I'm skilled enough then no doubt I might become a photographer! So now I'm always roaming here and there with my partner "Camera" , I'm always taking snaps. So yesterday when i was busy with my hobby, suddenly I discovered something very weird. I was just taking some snaps of a dog. It was someone's pet dog, I

The mountains - My love

People usually ask: Which do you prefer? The sea or the mountains? As for me – definitely the mountains. I am not a fan of „frying“ my body on the beach because to me it is boring. I prefer something more active, for example hiking. Since early childhood I spent my holidays in the mountains with my parents and I would say it influenced me a lot. I tend to the nature, I just love to escape from the rush of the city.

The mountains can give you a lot but sometimes they might be even unpredictable. T

2346797353?profile=originalOur attitude is what we are thinking every time. And people do believe what we think and say. if we underestimate us in front of others, they do believe what we say.

  "To become a Hero we always have to behave like a Hero "

Our attitude plays a big role in our mind problems. Its how our mind attitude dealing with our problems if they are really, the actual problems or our wrong mind set and attitude towards them that make a difference.

If we keep reading the old chapter we will never be able to re

These two come from Latin and they are quite common in English writing.
 
Here is a short explanation on what they mean and how to use them properly.

E.g.

E.g. stands for the Latin phrase "exempli gratia," which means "for example." 
Examples:
  • Big cities, e.g. New York, London and Tokyo offer more exciting activities.
  • You should hang out more with people in your own age, e.g. Tom and Kate.
  • Tropical fruit, e.g. bananas, mangoes and avocados, are shipped throughout the world.

I.e.

First post

Ok, let's start :-) This is my fist post in this blog and I think I should say a couple of words about myself and explain why I'm here.
My name is Kate, I'm from Russia. About four years I've been working as a science journalist. I was contributing a lot in my professional development. But now I'm currently out of race. I've lost my job because of liquidation of a news agency I was working in. And I don't like my new job, I'm bored with it, I'm looking for a new one.
The good thing is that now I h

4. A real joke about myself

Yesterday, I was very tired and nervous and I wanted to go out, but I couldn't find my cellphone. I thought it was better to ring my cellphone and found it from the ringing sound. I dialed my number, a cellphone near the telephone began to ring, I took the cell and said: " hello", but no one answered.
Again I dialed my number and that cellphone was ringing again and no answer came. This happened for me five times. I was very angry and asked myself why this bothering person didn't talk, I shouted

I would like to share one old tradition we still keep and even though today it is Labour day there is something more we celebrate.

Today, since it is May 1st we celebrate here in the Czech republic the DAY OF LOVE.

You can call it the second Valentine but I would kill you if you dared to mix it up :-D

I love this tradition from many reasons. Firstly – I think love and the month May go together. The Earth is ruled by the planet Venus – named after godess of love. Secondly - if you look around you, y

How is it going, guys?

In the last post, I wrote that we should learn 7 words a day.
But how many times do we need to see/learn a word to remember and retrieve it later?
As far as I'm concerned, that number roughly ranges from 12 to 14 times :)

Too many times you may say. But who says learning languages is easy ;)
We keep learning and forgeting and learning and forgetting...until it becomes a part of us [cheers]

And the point is we never give up :D

Ok? :)

Now, hit it !! \m/

Dear Captain,

I suddenly notice that I am becoming mushy. Thus I am determined to make some changes. I stop reading emotional essays and novels nowadays.

But I think I want to make a formal farewell with the past. Yet it's a pity, my memories about the past have been nibbled away day by day. As a matter of fact, I don't remember many things now. Should I say I am released from the cumbersome memories of the past and start a brand new life? I am neither sad nor happy. It's my life, it's like this.

COMPARATIVE AND SUPERLATIVE

 
We come across with different types of people in our daily life, and through our life time experience we face various categories of fellow beings. Some are good, some are better and a few of them are the best. Once we have finished our academic life, going through all good grades and excellent grades, the fastest era of our life has started in the fullest. When we step into the perplexing but the most enchanted part of life "Love" we face pretty faces, prettier faces and the one who touches our

what should be the title ?

I was watching a shark movie and it took me quite a while to find out the mystery behind the technique of their hunting , let me share that with you 

Two great white sharks were swimming in the ocean. They saw the survivors of a sunken ship,

" Follow me, son " father shark said, 

and they swam to the people.

" First we swim around them a few times with just the tip of our fins showing " and they did.

" Well done son ! now we swim around them a few more times with all of our fins and teeth showing" an
