« Dogs give their human companions unconditional love and are always there with an encouraging wag of the tail when they are needed. The dog is indeed a very special animal. »

Dorothy Hinshaw Patent, Dogs: The Wolf Within

Let’s talk about dogs  as domestic animals, and companions.
I’m always impressed and touched by dogs loyalty,  especially with their old, handicaped or blind companions.
Of course, there are some people who abuse on spending money for luxurious conditions for their dogs while t

Yesterday I received Atika's sms, she asked about me : how are you sister? Long time I didn't see you online ... Hope everything is okay.

Dear Atika,

Thank you for your sms; I missed you so much too. I have a few busy months ahead and must finish my studies. Though it's tough it's a joyful year for me. I am awaiting for completions I have short notice from my professor in completing my thesis. I don't want to "go out on a limb" to and repeat on the same mistakes. Yeah, I have had stressful days!

My Dear Syubi!

I got your letter, and it made me happy very much. I laughed a lot while I was reading your sentences. You are one of the lucky ones to get a love letter from a little chubby guy! I would want to tell a story like this, but unfortunately, I don’t have one. I told you, you are lucky! :)

Don’t you think so it will be weird if I write a Valentine’s letter to you! haha :)) That’s why, I decided to predict your love life instead of being your lover! *_* Predicting is my art.

First of all,

Cosmos is the term applied by Phytagoras to describe the universe. It consists of galaxies, stars, planets, moons, energies and lots of other matters. Similar to the universe we have the living beings that composed of organs, molecules, atoms, electrons, and energies. The term macrocosmos is applied to the universe and microcosmos is for the living beings.

Now let us see a human being. Why do we call a human being a microcosmos ?

Imagine ourselves as very tiny beings that are observing from the su

A man is talking to God.

The man: "God, how long is a million years?"
God: "To me, it's about a minute."
The man: "God, how much is a million dollars?"
God: "To me it's a penny."
The man: "God, may I have a penny?"
God: "Wait a minute."

Are you aware of that everything what you do in the Net leaves its own traces? Are you aware of such a huge problem of piracy in your country? Do you know you are a net pirat if you download your fevourite mp3 from websites which are free for you, which don't bring any profit to authors?

In most of EU countries is putting ACTA into practise, which makes lot of  strikes in my city (Warsaw), other city's in Poland, like other countries.

While I was checking my email, I received an email from English Club telling me that my profile was featured.  <3 

Then, I swiftly opened MyEC to be ensured. :D

I kept looking at my name joyfully, gleefully and delightedly. :D 

I wished to send my thanks and pleasure to whom have chosen me, frustratingly I couldn't. 

Therefore, I'm grateful to all (either moderators or members). I hope to be a hard-working member so that I deserve being a star.. :)

I would like to congrats other members who are  star

Dear Navedoo, 

Fancy seeing your letters again, because I haven't talked to you for yonks. First of all I should ask for your forgiveness ; As you know it's all about time, but for sure I will call round sooner.

I can't tell you when I remembered this history that was one of my selcouth Diaglyphs, I was like :"I'm done up like dog's dinner". At that day, I had prepared a shopping list with beef, cheese and some meat. I still have the image of your disenchanted face looking absolutely stunning. Wel

Dear Ultimate,

In response to Tara's writing challenge about uncountable nouns, I am writing this letter to you depicting a fiction story about an incident, that might test your patience.

Do I need to mention the time when you were caught shop lifting at a store. I did not know what had gotten into you. Your conduct was dubious from the beginning of the day as you came out of your house dressed as an Eskimo while I was pondering how hot the weather was.

Since the heat was unbearable, we got into a

Dear EC,

First of all thanks and congratulations to you for taking a place in my favourite websites list ! It was a time when I searched and went through many websites for improving my English skills. Do you know that most of the members who visit you become your fans and love you. Do you know that if I write history about SN, you would be at the top. It's my luck to see myself as a star member among all your superstars & starts. The information, knowledge, news and all the things I'm getting f

I wanted to join this month Writing Challenge, but I was confused to whom I should write a letter. Luckily, one of my dear friends, Surawan apparently also wanted to join this challenge. She asked me to write a letter for her.

Dear Ann,

I'm glad to hear news that the flood in Thailand is over now. I was shocked when you told me for the first time about the flood. I was sad to imagine how much damage your country was suffering during the flood. I can't imagine if I were you and needed to be evacu

One day, a poor boy who was selling goods from door to door to pay his way through school, found he had only one thin dime left, and he was hungry. He decided he would ask for a meal at the next house. However, he lost his nerve when a lovely young woman opened the door. Instead of a meal he asked for a drink of water. She thought he looked hungry so brought him a large glass of milk. He drank it slowly, and then asked, “How much do I owe you?” “You don’t owe me anything,” she replied. “Mother h

I have a friend named Monty Roberts who owns a horse ranch in San Ysidro. He has let me use his house to put on fund-raising events to raise money for youth at risk programs.

The last time I was there he introduced me by saying, “I want to tell you why I let Jack use my horse. It all goes back to a story about a young man who was the son of an itinerant horse trainer who would go from stable to stable, race track to race track, farm to farm and ranch to ranch, training horses. As a result, the bo

There was a blind girl who hated herself just because she was blind. She hated everyone, except her loving boyfriend. He was always there for her. She said that if she could only see the world, she would marry her boyfriend.

One day, someone donated a pair of eyes to her and then she could see everything, including her boyfriend. Her boyfriend asked her, “now that you can see the world, will you marry me?”

The girl was shocked when she saw that her boyfriend was blind too, and refused to marry him
