Dear Philippines,
You are called the Pearl of the Orient seas as you are like a gem in the midst of the vast Pacific Ocean. An archipelago of 7000 islands stringed together by lush tropical waters that on first view may seem so still and yet so dynamically pregnant with marine life. Tropical green pastures and flora blanket every inch of your ground like tinsel wrapping for your fertile earth. Your horizon gives way to an expanse of clear blue skies and shifting clouds that sometimes dip down
Dear Bangladesh,
Let me say first that I love you. I was born and raised in your lap. I got my education and everything from you. So, you deserve my respect.
You are a riverine country. You have the longest sandy sea-beach with hill aside, mangrove forest.You have hilsha fish and jamdani sari and six different seasons!
Along with it, you have a glorious past of freedom.You are the only country whose soil sons/daughters once sacrificed their lives for their mother tongue. Now this day is observing a
A Letter To My Beloved Country…….Pakistan.
Dear me, I am well aware that you are officially called Islamic Republic of Pakistan, republic in South Asia, marking the area where South Asia converges with Southwest Asia and Central Asia having Islamabad (City) as your capital, but Karachi (my Janam Bhomi) is the country’s largest city of 200 million population (unofficial).
Your present day was the cradle of the earliest known civilization of South Asia, the Indus Valley civilization (2500 -1700 BC).
My dear homeland …..
People say that you are land of emotional fools….they are true to some extent..(may be to larger) we love so passionately that we commit suicide when don’t see our beloved is going to be with us( and beloved sometime unaware of our obsessive love)….. but sometimes beloved commits suicide when lover cheats and run away( in both situations suicide is a must…ufff)….dear homeland!!!!! you have miraculous people who stop loving one another when got married but fulfill the promise
Hello everyone,
I was asked by Tara Benwell - our admin to turn my blog post Letter to Europe into this month's Writing Challenge. So... what is the task?
Write a letter to your country, give it the title Writing Challenge: Letter to.....

Don't forget to proofread it to avoid the mistakes and if you want some inspiration, read my blog bellow ;-) ohhhh.
As I see, you like my stories about Florida so, I will tell you one more today. It is about the area where we live. Our town, Crystal River, is rather small with the population of about 15,000, located at the estuary of the river with the same name. There is almost nowhere to go or nothing to do here. Most of people work somewhere else (like me) or have their jobs in service or tourist business. But we can't leave this area as we all in love with its primordial wild beauty. When I moved to Flori
I booked for an X-Ray a few days ago for a regular health check and this morning my husband dropped me off at the street near the building where I had the X--ray done.
The radiographer's a lovely lady and we had a peasant talk. She's probably at her late 40s and she told me that she had got a pathology degree from a 4 years study many years ago and right now she's doing her second degree in ultrasound as a part-time student. I wonder how many years it will be for her to complete the part-time cou
Speaking about further developing my English language skills, I know exactly how to achieve it. The most effective way for me personally is to keep learning English on a daily basis. However, the reality is I couldn't keep it up. Now it's time for self-reflection on where I've gone wrong.
When it comes to goal setting, I do think of SMART - specific, measurable, achievable, reasonable and timely. I can also follow the scheduled plan for 20, or 30 days even more. My big problem with it is that aft
That was a cheerful morning, at 8 o’clock. I was watching TV and chatting with friends. Only about 5 rooms or 15 meters far, I had left my room with the sounds of rock music on so loudly. So, I could hear all the sounds of music, TV and our charmed talking simultaneously. Really youngster! lol I didn’t know why I suddenly wanted to enter my room. I sauntered into the room and felt the morning was full of piece.
I checked my phone and was shocked to see the message sent by my senior. I hurriedly c
Yes, people's opinions may vary, or rather, people may differ about something. That's to say people may accept or tolerate something which seems so intolerable to others.
People come from different countries or nations with different cultural backgrounds, religions. They're educated or raised in a way which their parents or teachers think is right. You may call it 'brainwash'.
So, how could you think all the people around the world should always see eye to eye? Some people tend to lose their co
When you drive highway 95 and cross the border between Georgia and Florida, you always see a big signboard "WELCOME TO FLORIDA!" with a picture of a lady walking her alligator on a string. And, yes, welcome to Florida, the land of alligators and wild nature, the land of contrasts where great modern cities and fashionable resorts are surrounded with wild jungle, where stepping out of the 5 star hotel you can see an alligator crossing the street or a monkey sitting on the palm trying to throw a ba
Light bulb moment is a burst of inspiration. It is something you get out of a moment which you previously had not realized before. An occurrence where you feel like saying “Eureka!” because it finally dawns on you the possibilities it can give. Perhaps upon perusal of my adventures, you may yourself examine your personal experience and share your very own “ohhs” and “aahhhs” moments!
Stuck in traffic I was hostage to the tedious ruminations of my dreary mind repeatedly musing on the most munda
My eagerness, keen and enthusiasm for learning English is intense, extreme and drastic. The vast, huge and broad vocabulary of English language makes me bewildered, puzzled or confused. There are so many words meaning the same like delay, postpone and procrastinate; meanwhile we have some phrasal verbs which mean the same as those verbs like putt off.
I started learning English first as a hobby, pastime or recreation, but as time went by I fell in love with this beautiful, gorgeous and elegant la
Some members here keep asking, 'How can I write an intriguing or interesting blog?'
Good question indeed! It makes sense to create a blog which is enchanting or facinating since people enjoy reading them. It's no fun if people don't want to read what you write.
A charming blog is one which is pleasent or attractive yet thoughtful or informative. Sometimes it's just funny, humourous, lighthearted, cheerful, or amusing.
You need to come up with a good idea or topic for such a taking, captivating or
Yes, the title 'I'm a newbie' is often seen here. When you see a blog title like this, you know it's the first blog by a new member, or a newcomer.
'I'm a newbie' may mean I'm new or a stranger to MyEC, and if I make some mistakes, don't laugh at me.
In fact, it doesn't matter if you're a newbie, or a rookie. We'll read and even comment on your blog no matter whether you're a novice, or a neophyte. And, you don't need to be sorry for the mistakes since even advanced learners here make mistakes,
My blog posted earlier in response to Expector's challenge has been erroneously deleted so as all the comments made by my dear friends, for which I regret very much. I am re-posting the same and would request my friends to comment. I regret very much for the inconvenience caused.
The Tyrant Beloved
She was joyous to torture me by her loving indifference, ignoring me as if I didn’t exist. But I was happy to see her pleased. The affliction caused to me was intoxicating. I was exhilarated rather
As I was driving on a highway, a car with high speed overtook my car. In the blink of an eye he lost his control and all I remember was a car spinning in front of my car, I lost my control and bang. I was watching my car and “i” injured in the car. Oh my God! It was time for me to go, to leave everything behind. My time was over, but I was not ready to go. I have so much to do. I wanted to tell my kids how much I love them. I wanted them to know that although sometimes I was harsh on them, but I
