How to play the game ?

Writing Prompt: It's Vs. Its

Writing Prompt: It's Vs. Its

  In fact, I'm not a super fan of candies but I can say I enjoy eating sometimes a bar of white chocolate. Its flavour is very different of brown chocolate. It's like a milk in a bar shape. It's very soft, creamy and it's used to melt quickly inside mouth. It's advisable to consume a half of a brown chocolate bar, because it's good for heart health say doctors. Particulary, I don't like  brown chocolate because I think it's a strong taste. This way, brown chocolate an

Scared Tintin

Last night Tintin could not sleep properly, around 4 A.M she rose up. There was no chirping of morning birds. May be they were also in their deep sleep. Only the sound of a dripping tap was coming towards her ears and it was too annoying!  So, she got up and went towards the direction to stop it.

Tintin fears from darkness so, always  likes to sleep  with  a dim light. " But what's happened today, why there is darkness all around?" It seemed she felt stifle." I must see what is going on". As she

This is the continuance of My Perth Diary. This blog is dedicated to a friend of mine, "Yes WMW! You! There's no need to look at other people on your left or right, or even above or below you. It's just to tell you that I can write longer than longest. LOL"

The Mastery Of Spoken English.

The journey is never easy.

What we say and how we post our sentiment here on EC can often be misinterpreted by others from different beliefs and cultures.

To me, "It's always good".., A healthy respect for learners and non native speakers is a prerequisite when considering what's posted.

If Noas wishes to post a travelogue of her visit to Australia, if Mickey writes about "The Captain", if Shaw chooses to share his creative paintings..etc...etc..

Please, give them the creative freedom to do so. This

Princess of Bill Gates

If you want to do something big in your life, you must remember that shyness is only the mind". "If you think shy, you act shy. If you think confident you act confident. Therefore never let shyness conquer your mind.

Bill Gates wrote about her...

"Today is the black day of my life and same for Pakistan because I lost my princess colleague and Pakistan lost her Pakistani."
- Bill Gates.

May her soul rest in peace and a big heaven.

LEARN TO LISTEN - LISTEN TO LEARN

LEARN TO LISTEN - LISTEN TO LEARN 

"No man would listen to you talk if he didn't know it was his turn next." (Quote by Ed howe, an American novelist)

This is natural a human being (may be animal also) born with a desire “to be listened”, but to be listened, it is also obligatory that one should have the bearing to listen to others.

 

Just take your own example. You are with a group of friends and some conversation is going on. Just imagine what would be your feelings, when you find one of your frien

Organizing your vocabulary

Since my student years I have always wondered what’s the most effective or useful way of learning words (memorizing as many words as possible ) in any target language. I have always been in search of those ways , by saying ‘’always’’ I mean since-the years-of-my-high –school. Those years were the first time when I realized the importance of learning the English language and that was when I took up English more seriously with one aim to apply to the Institute of Foreign Languages  or The State Un

 How rewarding is a teacher’s work when she receives those great ‘’thank you’s ‘’ ?

Have you ever admired a teacher?

 As for me I haven’t ever dreamt about it even when chosing  the University where I should study the English language as a profession.  Only after having worked at school for more than ten years I realized what it is to be a teacher. Teachers do so much for changing the world ‘’one child at a time’’. It’s a noble goal, isn’t it?

 Recently I have hear something about myself as a teach

Life’s so precious

I want to tell you my story , but don’t worry I am not going to bore you with any uninteresting details about my daily routines or broken heart or unlucky marriage or anything else like that.

I’m a thirty-four-year old woman (oh my God already over thirty!!!!), who has two angels and I’m immensely proud of them., but the story is not about them, its about  how a person can change herself or get changed with years.

 I’ve changed a lot . Why and how? You’ll see if you still keep on reading this blog

Dear Captain,

I just brushed Jingjing's dog's teeth and bathed it. Now it looks like a decent gentleman. It's lying huddled up in bed besides me. I feel like Jingjing's soul inside it.

Jingjing was the only audience of my stories. Each time I went to visit her, she would beg me to stay overnight so that I could tell her the stories you had told me before. She was getting more and more curious about the wandering captain and hoped to meet you...

Captain...I am tired at heart. Good night!

Yours

Nikita

AND THEN IT IS WINTER

Oi there folks, 

             Some time ago, when I came back from the health resort, I complained to my cousin in Canada how life seems to have take a turn for the worse, and here is what he sent me to make me feel better - sorry, I have no idea where he got this cool text from, nor who is the witty author.

 AND THEN IT IS WINTER  

You know ... time has a way of moving quickly and catching you unaware of the passing years. It seems just yesterday that I was young, just married and embarking on my
