Can I be a Musician?

I just ask myself about what is my purpose here, in this world?

Just keep searching on something that I really like. Its like searching yourself.

Searching for who you really are.

When times walk.. And you still stuck on your routine activities. Can you imagine how's life like?

There's no passion. No Creativity. Even there's no life..

It seems like you just keep move on something that so boring.

I want to break my life. Get out from my routines life.

Knowing who I really want. And knowing where should

     Sometime in a cold summer, Anabelee usually take her vacation at her cousin Daphne's farm in Old Road, Mexico City. It was not a typical description and view of what a farm house looks like; a tiled floor and a glass window where the sun's light directed towards the ever pleasing cool sight and relaxing shades of green and blue surrounding the living room.

      On every corner, you could see a glass basket full of candies and chocolates. There is also a glass center-table in the living room

A piece of my life’s experience…

I’d like to share with you my little story today. The story looks very simple itself, but I think it may cause you to think a bit about our attitude for lives towards life.

 

Once, I and some of my friends traveled to a country side. A place that was very beautiful with immense fields. The green color of grasses seemed like imbued the infinite space itself.

On that journey, I myself was impressed with the game flying kites one of the most popular games in the country

Writing Challenge# Reflexive Pronouns

 

I remember some years ago, I wanted to test Google Translate (Beta Version):

 

I questioned myself which sentence I should write for the first time.

I told myself "I am Sahar" is the best!

I wrote in Google box "I am Sahar" in Persian (من سحر هستم).

Then Google translated it: " I am magic"!

Magic?!!

Oh!

Yes!!

Sahar itself means "Dawn" in Persian, but it also means "Magic" with the same writing and different pronunciation, Sehr.

"Google must laugh at itself!" I thought

As a somewhat, controversial, yet, good standing member of English Club, I always do my very best to help out all of our members. I'm a native speaker who carries a great deal of responsibility when logging into this site while joking around with the more humorous members.

The topic and subject that I'm about to relate to is somewhat of a "touchy issue" and the story is a bit symbolic in it's nature. Please don't take offense. The entire story is written with the best of intentions. It's a real l

Celestial(sky) burial in Tibet

Sky Burial in Tibet

Tibetans practice several different forms of funeral: sky burial (or celestial burial), water funeral, cremation, interment and stupa burial. Which one is chosen depends on the wealth and social status of the deceased.

Sky burial is to feed vultures with the body of the dead. After vultures finish eating the body and fly into the sky, Tibetans think that the dead will go to the heaven. It is the usual means adopted to dispose of the corpses of commoners, and is not considered s

HAPPINESS

Hello everyone. 

Today I wake up in a sad and blue mood. I don't know why I am down; so I decided to reflect on that.

We are in a world that have created for us needs and dreams. Sometimes, those dream and needs are real but most of the cases, they are just: created. Who says that you need a cellphone with lots of app, who told you that if you are no success you are not gonna be happy. Who considers that happiness may be just found on material think. Sometimes, I say to myself. The inner part of a

I've decided to improve my pronunciation with help of teachers from italki, my favorite source of finding teachers :) 

And this morning I had a class about f a v sounds in cases when they go together in one word, like in words five, favor, fervent, fever, flavor. And I should say, as always it was fantastic. 

Except learning of how to pronounce sounds correctly, on my opinion, it's important to don't forget about your manner or style, and, of course, the content of your speech. And I think that yo
