I used to not be able to find the subject of a sentence and I could never remember if the "I" came before an "E" or the other way around.

When I was in grade school, I would always choose the wrong noun as the subject of the sentence. I had this problem all the way through high school. I did not do very well in English in school. I really hated English. All the rules that never made any sense at all, just were not important to me. It was not until I had to take college English that I developed a

 the love of my life
the love that I miss
I'm looking for love
My love is strangled
he is about to succumb
I can not seem to calm
nothing is more beautiful than to find
One who loves us with sincerity
and here I am into you
I know that I love you and for you
I'm ready for all
To you my joy of living
the love of my life
the love that I miss
I'm looking for love
my eyes are open
My heart is closed
I do not know where to go
the love of my life
the love that I miss
I'm looking for love
you embody the kingdom of my soul

Learning from each other's mistakes is very useful. There are many common errors that people make when they are learning a language. Learners who share a native language often make similar mistakes. This is because they are bringing the rules of their own language to their new language.  

Members often send me private messages with questions about the English language. I usually ask them to put their questions on my wall instead. Sometimes I ask them to pose their question at the Grammar Help Des

I was curious about one thing. Is a butterfly as light as a paper? If yes, why can't the wind blow away a butterfly but a paper?
I am sad now. I just saw off one of my good friends. I left my sweetest smile to her, but once she got into the station, tears came out of my eyes. I have to admit I am always weak at controlling such kind of feeling.
When I came back home and opened MyEC, I received an email, and it made me cry again. Sister Anele had left MyEC. I thought of Uncle Daylight, Sister Be

Malaysians love to celebrate, and most importantly, we love our Public Holidays. We love all kinds of festivals and thank God that we are from various ethnic, cultural, and religious backgrounds. But whatever these festivals are, the most common things that bind them are; Public Holidays and "Open House" Concept.

Before I proceed with my ramblings, let me introduce to you the meaning of an "Open House" concept. An "Open House" or "Rumah Terbuka" in Malay is literally means that the house is open

hi my friends 

I was thinking how i can find something that no one can steal from us. I found an amazing topic about this matter. It really got much benefit from it.I didn't forget to inform teacher tara about it.

This year I plant this plant again. It is now just about 2 week old and about 1 foot tall. It will flower in August when it reaches the height of my chest. 

Some folks (person who gives me seeds) call it Hàm Hương, meaning the " latent fragrance) because the flowers do not have any scent. However, the monarch butterflies come and be so infatuated (or intoxicated) by the unfelt scent that they chose to stay around until they die or the flowers die out. http://njunhung.files.wordpress.com/2013/05/p

Postcolonial English Development

     English has taken precedence over many other languages during recent history. The rise of English as a global language has led individuals from English speaking countries to take the language for granted. In other words, motivation to learn a second language is virtually nonexistent for these individuals. In a specific example, a gentleman from Ireland commented that “Everything that we inherit, the rain, the skies, the speech, and anybody who works in the En

Don't Let Anything Break YOu..
You’re right. People do lie, and cheat, and stab you in the back. There will be people who use you, and don’t love you even though they say they do. But you can’t let that stop you from living. Because there are people out there who do love you, and would never hurt you. You have to find those people and keep them in your life forever. Some people will do you wrong in life. People will say things about you that you never think they will, people will lie on you, peo

Adult Pi Patel: Faith is a house with many rooms.

Adult Pi Patel: Oh plenty, on every floor. Doubt is useful, it keeps faith a living thing. After all you cannot know the strength of your faith until it is tested.

I have meet my students 4 weeks ago for the short ESL class and now I have to let go. on my second week i cant help but wish for the time to pass by so fast since some of them are not really my cup of tea.

Asian culture says that older people know better and since most of them are older than I am I am torn between being a teacher and being a younger person.

But during the graduation party i cant help but to go home early, seems to me that
