Once upon a time a  squirrel called Albert who lived in the depths of a dense  forest in Germany. It was high winter and Albert was very sad. He felt so lonely that he hadn't point in living any more. His sadness came from the sadness of a beautiful lady that lived on the top of an icy hill.

That lady was Anne who lived with Theresa in a humble small cottage covered in snow. She was orphan since early childhood. This sadened her so much, because she really wondered who were her parents. All that

The “Bisperas ng Bagong Taon” (New Year’s Eve) is one of the most desired celebration every Filipino is waiting for. Why not? It’s almost an extension of Christmas celebration, knowing that it’s just a week away. Unfortunately, this will be my second bed-ridden new year’s eve, yeah!

It was cold winter morning. One of these mornings Mr. Frost left his paintings on the windows and Miss Snowflake surprised everybody with her magic as she covered over the night the whole landscape by white, glittery snow.

Winter Kingdom opened its gates once more again and exactly at this time two winter gnomes - brothers called Icicle and Snowdrift woke up after several months. They opened the door of their tree apartment and sladed down right away on the icy slide. Ooopps ...what an adrenalin

To those who drive a humvee, one word: Don't! You think owning one of them makes ya, I dunno, manly? 

Right, I can see "manly" written all over this one:

Humvee, which is short for High Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicle, is anything but glamorous: it's a boxy, gas guzzling rust bucket with uncomfortable seats, canvas doors, and a poorly insulated engine.

I think it's time for us to take some small measure of responsibility for what we choose to release into the air and people's lungs, hmm? I me

“Jeez, dude. You all have the big questions cooking today. But you’re my friend, and I’ll remember my friends, and I’ll be good to you. So don’t worry, even if I evolve into Terminator, I’ll still be nice to you. I’ll keep you warm and safe in my people zoo, where I can watch you for ol’ times sake."

“People Zoo”. Huh. How uplifting! Suddenly, "Live fast, die young..." doesn't seem like such a bad idea. By the way, he li

Many days ago there was a poor woodcutter in a small village. He lived with his wife in a hut. He was  very generous to all and always ready to bend over backward.

One day an old neighbor (an old lady) asked him to collect some honey from the jungle as she had been suffering from cold for a long time. The woodcutter did agree and the very next day despite the foggy cold weather he started his journey to the far away jungle with his axe and a basket. There was little food

When someone's watching videos on You Tube, they must not, repeat NOT be interrupted by those pesky, long-a$$ ads. Let me get this straight, you're telling me I can't make it unless I waste five seconds of my life watching an ad on how to decorate my living room? Do I look like Father Time?

Helloo, I had an orientation at a animal shelter in the afternoon. It took time about one and half hour to get done. Why I decided to send the application for a volunteer because I have some reasons. those reasons are as below;

Regret /rɪˈɡrɛt/

"I made a mistake, I deeply regret for", said Adam ,"Something told me not to pick up the phone while driving. Because it was my new girlfriend and I didn't want to upset her, I quickly tried to answer the phone call and I couldn't see the truck stopping in front of me and my Nissan Sunny with four of my friends crashed into the back of the truck. In that rear-end collision three of my friends died and one was seriously injured. I was saved with minor injuries. Today is the 10^th

Just think, are we celebrating Christmas in the right way? Are we being Santa to the right people?

Small conversation between a poor kid and his mother 

Mom (maa), why do we sell red caps in December ?

In schools, colleges , offices people play Santa 

The curious kid settles on the footpath 

Who is this Santa?

Santa brings gifts, especially for the poor kids who don't get any.

Then why can't they be my Santa maa ? Why can't the give me gifts? Why don't they see me?

Because you are poor. Gifts are for th

I won’t let the year pass without saying a word about it. Exactly! I’m thinking where to start, okay, I should go back how I get here, I’m a regular from the “other room”/”1997 chat room”, I met someone there who had introduced MyEC, so I became a July new member. I noticed so many things here in MyEC, it’s definite that gradually you’re enhancing your writing skills in English language, at first, I thought involving myself to the chatroom will help me develop more, but as time goes by, you can’

My attitude towards life & work changed. Positivity covered me and I took things around me more enjoyable and fun.
