1. Don't use me during school examinations

You may have learned English for years or ages, but you are still unable to speak it fluently or you still find it difficult to understand what other people are talking about on TV or radio. If you are just one of them, you should try to ask youself if you have failed to pay enough attention to the pronunciation, or if you have tried to pronounce every new word. 

I know a lot of learners of English can read and understand quite well what are written on paper, but they are weak on speaking and lis

•MY MUSHROOMS•

Hi, everyone. 

I've got a countryside house where my parents live most of the time in a year so I like coming there and usually I take photos in the forest and ...yes yes, I take my basket and I gather mushrooms and berries there. It's logic that I know the names of the mushrooms in my native language but what about in English? And I started googling.....(as usual, all photos are mine). 

Need to say that I never buy mushrooms in supermarkets. The whole family of mine every summer gather a lot of m

why we need old-age homes?

     

When I was going to office. I watched  80years an old lady. She doesn't have money and she wared shabby clothes. She was gazing into a food-court. I thought she was in hungry. Noone gave food to her.I thought she is orphaned or Her family members left her.

     Why people left their parents?why Senior citizens are joined in oldage homes? When we were born, From that day to today they are giving everything what we are asking them.But when they are depending upon us but we are ignoring them.

The Old Coin - Real Story

It was just an ordinary autumn day and I was preparing here everything for the birthday celebration of my daughter. Since I was in a hurry, I asked  my husband to take the garbage out and in few minutes he came back and was holding in his hand a coin. Ehm… boring? Ok, let me add one important fact. The coin he brought was from the year 1851.

Firstly I was just staring at it and didn´t believe how come he was able to find something like this. Something what is 163 years old, he just found on the p

I am immortal.

The red fluid running in your veins makes me crazy and I could not control my hunger.

I’ll look just as stunning beautiful as I do today.

The part of human body is the most attractive to me is “neck”.

I never fall sick.

When in mood I jump, skip, hop or sneak around.

I hate sunlight and prefer dark night.

If you read the book of Stephanie Meyer or watch the movie “The Twilight Saga Eclipse” you will wish me to bite you to make you immortal.

Surprisingly, however, expectedly and logically as well, I have found out that if you really want to improve your English level, you have to bear in your mind very crucial matter, that is, with whom you should talk on-line. In the sense that, you choose well the persons you are talking to, paying more attention to their English level, in case you want to improve yours, that is because it affects yours unconsciously .In other words, if you are talking to someone whose English is poor and yours is

Memory?  Yes, I mean the ability to remember things may have a lot to do with your learning. Some people even said that learning is just a matter of memory. Does that make sense to you?

You may have learned English for such a long time, which may mean you have read so many English books, articles, blog posts and other reading material. Also, you may have watched or listened to a lot of English movies/films, songs, TV programs etc - all in English, and most of them are things written or sung by na

Names of Human Sounds

Hey do you burp or belch after finishing your food? I think, when kids or adult people eat more then the capacity of their stomachs, they start burping. Am I right? Please don't giggle, instead you may laugh loudly. And what about hiccup? I sometimes hiccup, mostly it happens when I eat something more spicy. It is said, if you drink adequate water just after your first hiccup, it helps to solve the problem. Try it! Hey, don't start sniffing around. My intention is not bad. But, if you have cold

The whole year I have been impatiently waiting for you.

All the year I was just curious to see you, to admire your beauty.

When You Are Old by W.B. Yeats

Three things in my life that I'm not fond of; watching movies, ironing and reading poems. Well, I seldom, make it like only if you tied me at a tree and let loose those fire ants, read poems because I never understand them, to be honest. Sometimes it feels like I was reading gibberish. 

Anyway, tonight, while I was ironing, I was also listening (yes! I prefer listening to the television rather than watching it) to a movie called 'Chasing Leprechauns', I was struck by a beautiful poem quoted by th

Hello guys,lately I saw here many writing prompts, especially by afro and annah and I admire both for their creativity. So here I am with mine, I wanted to give it a try :)It was a nice day, WEATHER was fantastic even though winter is around the corner. I woke up and was thinking, WHETHER to go for a trip or just to stay at home, since the kids were little bit coughing. MAYBE it would be the best solution to go alone, to enjoy few hours of loneliness. Why not? It MAY BE somehing what can refresh
