As yesterday was Friday I decided to enjoy my life little bit and went to the bar with my friends. We were drinking, dancing and had great fun. Anyway, later I felt a bit drunk and weird as if somebody put drugs in my drink. Oh nooo my drink was spiked! My legs were so weak,  my arms became so numb that I dropped them on the floor. What the hell was this? My friends were just laughing like insane and put them better in the plastic bag - just in case I would need them one day again. When the barm

Hi, everyone! My funny contest has been over and, as a result, we have got 6 winning mistakes you found to be the funniest. Here they are together with my explanations:

1. “Having held the books for so long she felt her arms become numb and she dropped them on the floor.” This sentence means that a woman dropped her ARMS on the floor because they had got (were getting) numb. What a horror!
2. “I have a shoe in one leg and another leg is bare.” It means that some woman has more than two legs. Besides she

Some days ago, I was reading a book when a friend called me up via Skype.

My friend is a Canadian, He's a forty-five years old man with German roots from his grandparents. I know, he misses Germany because he hadn't been here for many years. He has still relatives in Germany. He told me to come in the next spring when Germany is more beautiful than in other seasons of the year.

My friend is a musician and poet. He writes and composes the own songs. Playing the guitar and singing is his life.

Hi, ladies and gentlemen! Here is the breaking news on our EC channel! Stay with us!

After returning to EC megalopolis, one of our favorite teachers suddenly changed his traditional orientation and started going nuts! His traditional learning blogs about idioms, phrasal verbs and grammar have been replaced by his sarcastic blogs deriding learners’ mistakes. He must have rested his brains somewhere in the jungle of the blunders he faces every day! He writes down all your mistakes in a long hand on

My dear friends, I always keep my word! I have promised you a funny contest and here it is! I “collected” the funniest mistakes I came across reading your blogs, comments and my personal correspondence and wrote many funny nightmare stories to make you laugh and realize what you say. However, if the authors want to compete, I can only help and encourage them! Hahaha!

So, here are 50 “best” mistakes that made me laugh and gave me inspiration. Now, I’d like each of you to choose 5 of them you find

Hi, my dear learners, my true friends! Who else can give me such inspiration?! I should have posted this blog much earlier but you know, all my nightmares are the result of your mistakes. I just couldn’t think up the plot without your help. But I am ready to tell you a great story if you don’t mind reading my explanations. So, here is what I learned from you.

1.“You worn out your skeleton sweet shirt.” My friends, I am sure I can’t wear out any clothes if I put them on once or twice. I wish my sw

Some things just happen. Life doesn't ask us, what we want because life actually doesn't care. What counts is our attitude and decissions we make. They are like a huge arrow, which shows us the direction. No matter if we choose easy or complicated way - eventually we end up somewhere. All the slaps and backstabs are without doubt painful but after all... going through the burning hell makes us much more resistant. Unscounsciously we push ourself one level higher because we all long for being our

MEGAEC City had been covered by a huge wave of atrocities this weekend. Many dead discussions were dug from the discussion cemetery. Many people were stressed out because their mistakes had been pointed in a rude way. Panic began in the city. Many reports were written to the police department. That is why Special Agent Roman Squirrel (not clumsy one) had been appointed in order to investigate this case.

The traces of a cat claws were spotted at the crime scenes. Also some parts of the black hair

WEATHER FORECAST

Here is the forecast for next 24 hours. 

This is not good news for those who are planning ‘dating’.  The weather will be pretty stormy, so the indoor dating will be too crowded for those who have some secret planning for their partners.  Outside in daytime, the weather will be pretty hot, may affect the temperature of the caring parent for their daughters, so I have to warn all the boys to be careful with their girlfri

This is a true story that happened with my mom one year ago.

One day, it was October or November, at 8-9 pm o`clock I was coming back from the city to home in the village. And as always the way to home was going through the forest. It was dark there. And in each hand I carried a bag, so I could not use a flashlight. It was very quiet inside forest, because of absence of wind.

And suddenly, right in the middle of my way to home, I heard the steps of 2-3 creatures behind me... I started to walk fast

Hi bloggers and everyone who likes writing. :)

I’m sure all of you know what passive voice is. Passive voice can change the focus of interest by placing the object at the beginning of the sentence. Subjects are often omitted in the sentence as they are usually unimportant, unknown, or obvious.

Passive voice is commonly used in news report. Hence, for practicing the passive, I challenge you to write a news report. :)

Here is your task:

1.  Choose a topic of your interest, then make a title of your ne

I heard this story from one of my uncles who was a brave man instead of a  chicken like me!

The story is....

One late evening my uncle was getting back from his elder sister's house. His sister lived in a  village and he (my uncle) lived and did a job as a school teacher in a big city. But, during that time he was spending his winter vacation in their village farm house.

That day the weather was good, my uncle's farm house was situated 5 km far away from his sister's house. and, he decided to get b

This is a true story and I have witnesses who will assure you that this really happened at the house. It happened with my younger sister. We were in our teen years and summer vacations were going. During those days our state was struggling with power crisis and almost every night power was cut for 8-12 hours, yes that is almost all night. 

As I said it happened with my sister, she was quite a tom boy and always tried to prove she never fears with anything. So we have a big 2 story house in villag

I was in a dense forest on MyEC Island, somewhere in the world. There were so many people and I didn’t know them so well. However, it is they who accompanied me there in happiness and laughter for 3 years. I was so kind and beautiful (LOL *kidding) that many people liked me. But since that day, everything has changed.

One morning, my body was transformed into something scary. Some sharp small swords grew in my both hands. I may not realize that I hurt people around me. My ears and nose were getti
