My My English Club

Hello My EC..

I am an old member who keeps coming back to my second home no matter how long I was away.. Or a proditor in other words as Deuce has called us.

Being here again with so many friends missing or hibernating; stirred a feeling of nostalgia that made me decide to write this blog. Which reflects how I see My EC, what benefits I gained "still gaining" from it as well as sharing the sweet memories I had with my friends here..

I have joined in October 2010 at first I was lost like every new m

Hello  muddah, Hello fadduh

Here I am at Camp Grenada.

Camp is very entertaining,

And they say we’ll have some fun if it stops raining.

 

I went hiking with Joe Spivey

He developed poison ivy;

You remember Leonard Skinner?

He got ptomaine poisoning last night after dinner.

 

All the counselors hate the waiters

And the lake has alligators.

And the head-coach wants no sissies,

So he reads to us from something called Ulysses

Now I don’t want this should scare ya,

But my b

I do it because I can.  I can because I want to.  I want to because you said I could not.

by Nancy Arroyo Perez

Have you ever felt a huge power or a huge depression inside you but you didn't know why or how have you got it? Do you feel that you like some people more than other or disaffect from other? Do the positive or negative emotions, feelings and circumstances build the positive or negative personalities? Have you ever asked yourself if you are positive or negative person? Do you feel that

You Never Know

         As you know, billions of Asians are celebrating the Lunar New Year (Some people call it "Chinese New Year" or "Spring Festival" in China). People in Korea or Vietnam or some other countries may celebrate it in different ways.  But, one thing's for sure, they all wish themselves or others a happy and lucky new year.

        I myself sent a lot of text messages on the New Year's Eve to wish all of them every happiness, a fortune, prosperity, success, health, a dream come true or something

Valentine's Day

History of St. Valentine's Day

Who is this mysterious saint and why do we celebrate this day?

According to one legend, Valentine was a priest during the third century in Rome. When Emperor Claudius II decided that single men made better soldiers than those with wives and families, he outlawed marriage for young men. Valentine was not happy and he continued to perform marriages for young lovers in secret. When Valentine's actions were discovered, Claudius ordered that he be put to death.

missing my star

I'm not a poet . I'm not a writer , either . But I do want to write about my shining star, i do miss him a lot! I can't even find proper words to describe all these warm emotions and feelings  towards him.I dedicate this blog to him ...all these photos of stars are for him.

‘’There is a voice inside you that whispers all day long ‘I feel this is right for me, I know that this is wrong, ‘ No teacher . preacher. Parent. Friend or wise man can decide what’s right for you! Partially I can’t agree wit

Pico Ruivo - after a few attempts

2346522317?profile=original

It is one of the most popular high level walk on the Madeira Islands. Pico Ruivo is 1,861 meters high and that makes it the highest peak on the Island. It provides some of the most incredible views of the island and a variety of flora and fauna. However, the weather condition is unpredictable. It is best to check the weather condition before climbing. 

 

15 January 2012

So it was planned, we were going to climb the highest peak on the Madeira Islands today. The weather was good and I was thrilled.

The Fence

There once was a little boy who had a bad temper. His father gave him a bag of nails and told him that every time he lost his temper, he must hammer a nail into the fence. The first day the boy had driven 37 nails into the fence. Over the next few weeks as he learned to control his anger, the number of nails hammered daily, gradually dwindled down. He discovered it was easier to hold his temper t

Let's Write!

What to say about my writing skill?

The more I learn, the little I know. The more I uncover, the more remains hidden.

Despite of my learning English, reading habits, plus other extra efforts, I still can’t find myself to write creatively. Whenever I attempt to write, I always hit the wall and that put me to a stop. I am useless with compartmentalising. So confused as to how I should start and what to write first. Everything seems to come rushing into my head at the same time. Then all of a sudden

In my opinion, it will not detract from our inportance,if the aid of the others helps us to reach what/where we are now , and it's wrong to think for  doing everything without the help of the others,  and being snooty for asking that , we make all this just when we haven't a great confidence in ourselves , means when we are really weak ............. but when we are strong we never feel in this .

When we get to a certain level of ability ,we will receive the help of the others with spirit of grati
