MyEC: More than a Chat Room

MyEC: More than a Chat Room: Listen

 

We all use MyEC for different reasons. My primary reason for using MyEC is to encourage English learners to write. I love writing and I hope my passion for writing will rub off on the members here. I think blogging is an excellent way to practise and teach English. 

 

Others use MyEC to share poetry or watch English videos or learn new vocabulary. Many of you have found groups with people who have like interests. You forget that you are practising English becaus

2346146089?profile=originalI know many of you spend a lot of time online, but do you also like to gab on the phone? Do you still have a landline, or do you just use a mobile?

 

This week my husband is going to get rid of our landline. Why? It costs a lot of money each month and we almost never use it. I use video chat to talk to my best friends, clients, and colleagues. I use my cell phone to text my family members and I use email, twitter, and blogs to keep in touch with friends around the world. We have moved so many time

Hi Everyone,

 

I'm happy to tell you that I'm already here in Canada after the long journey from China, and everything here seems to be going very well for me. I'd like to thank all the members who kept asking about my journey during my absence for the nice comments and notes. There's nothing better than receiving messages from MyEC friends. It was all the kind greetings that cheered me on and made me survive the first few days here in another country far from mine. I'm sorry for the dalay in repl

Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium

2346138931?profile=original

It was a statutory holiday in some parts of Canada today. Some provinces call the third Monday in February "Family Day". I am happy to be in a province that promotes the importance of family time. 

 

We didn't get up to much on Family Day. It was nice to just relax after a busy week full of Valentine and birthday parties. We hung out in PJs and played Wii and watched a movie. Have you seen Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium? If not, you should!

 

This movie stars Dustin Hoffman (Rainman) and Natalie Por

Hello my friends

Though I don't have enough time to be as active here as I would like (it takes me a lot of cncentration and time to write something here) most of the time, only having a few minutes to answer your posts, I decided to spend one hour (or more :)) here to give you a feedback  of a very interesting conference I went to last week. Many of you probably already know much about this topic, but it gives me a good opportunity to start writting here again.

What is it?

Riddles are short poems or texts that ask a question that seems difficult to answer. The following famous riddle by Catherine Fanshawe is talking about something, but what is it?

Special note - this riddle uses the following (old-fashioned) contractions:
'twas = it was
'tis = it is
'twill = it will
o'er = over
e'en = even

--

'Twas whispered in Heaven,
'Twas muttered in Hell,
And echo caught faintly
The sound as it fell;
On the confines of Earth,
'Twas permitted to rest,
And the depth of the ocea

Hi Everyone,

 

I'm glad to inform you that I've been offered a 6-month observership (as an academic visitor) in a teaching hospital in Quebec, Canada, and I will be going there very soon. It's really a dream come true - I eventually got the opportunity to study in an English-speaking country. I hope and am sure that I can improve both English and surgical skills there. I can't wait to hit the road. I'm so excited, but a little nervous about the upcoming trip. I decided it's time for me to share th

Falling Down Hurts: But it Helps Us

I just got a message from a friend who had written weeks ago. He wanted to know how he could speak out loud without being shy and afraid. He worries that people will correct or criticize his speaking. Those who will correct us are our best friends.

Shyness is natural and criticism is important.  If others cannot criticize and correct us we cannot learn. I am now learning Arabic and face the same feelings as you.  I don't like to make mistakes, but it is how I learn the correct way of saying thing

King of my soul

Heart of my heart

I offer you my heart

and be slave of yours

 

You offered me your world

and picked me among flowers

to be the queen of your heart

The master of your life

 

I was blessed with you

when you stormed my heart

I was brought to life

When my soul met yours

 

You made me feel a woman

when you touched my heart

You honored me then

When I became your wife

 

Life can never be the same

Family is The Greatest Sanctuary

2346131005?profile=original2346130989?profile=original2346131114?profile=original

A bond amongst relatives is the greatest sanctuary

None in this world will be able to deny it

Even though there are many kinds of bond, but it remains

different

Like the sweetest chocolate it will feel like

Evoking our emotion and affection from the bottom of heart

 

 

2346131051?profile=original

Love amongst relatives is the true and real one

It will never be falsified, manipulated, or even juggled

Lies at the bottom of our heart

Yielded without any reduction

Always immanent, abide, and will never be gone

Nothing will be able to extin

Writing Challenge #28: Book Love

I'm reading a fantastic book called "The Little Guide to Your Well-Read Life. How to get more books in your life and more life from your books." It is written by Steve Leveen, and I picked it up randomly at the local library. I say randomly, because nobody recommended it and it wasn't on my "to read" list. The title just caught my eye as I was browsing the shelves. If there's one thing I want in life, it is more time to read. I could sit in a bookstore or library for days on end and never get bo

Many people consider that leaving comment on someone else’s blog is not too important because it will waste their time only. They say the most important points are they have already read and got some information from it,  which means there is no need to leave any comment. However, even though a comment seems “tiny”, it possesses a great power they have never known (that's what I believe).

Teacher Tara said,”commenting is equal to blogging”, which means when leaving comment on someone else’s blog,
