One day my brother brought a puppy in our house.I really hate dogs and I am scared of them too.All of them agreed to keep the puppy because its cute and I was the only one so, had to agree.They kept his name Hachi.

I had no problem when my family is there because they will do everything with him.But when they are not at home it was a great torture for me because I had to clean his dirty stool where he will pass it everywhere.Then, after cleaning his stool I will beat him like anything.

I bet it was hard to read the title, wasn't it? Your reading speed was interrupted as you were trying to 'decode' those weird-looking words. Very frustrating, huh? This is how a dyslexic feels every time they want to read something. Welcome to their world! Dyslexia is a general term for disorders that involve difficulty in learning to read or interpret words, letters, and other symbols, however, that do not affect general intelligence.

Assignments are the medium, which is used to assess the knowledge of the students. The students of every level, whether school or college are supposed to complete the assignment, in order to gain good grades or marks. This is the essence of every course or the subject.

You know, before knowing someone new, it's always advisable to have a haircut and have a bath because the first impression is what sticks. Try to have a rest before coming to get-together. Nobody wants to look at you with that sleepy face when talking. It's not that interesting indeed! New friendships can make you have a good time if you really want  how to have a healthy relationship. If you want to be a dear person try to have  sympathy for your new company, otherwise you'll always have

-Living la vida Laowai-



Wikipedia describes Laowai as a commonly used Mandarin Chinese word, and a shorter, informal version of wàiguórén 外国人 ("foreigner").
Laowai is not intended as a negative word. Of course you may hear expat stories where the word has been adapted to be used negatively by some. Sadly, this has become human nature. I am currently not an expat, and my story is not a story about international racism. However, my story is about being different. My story is about being an ou

destruction |diˈstrəkSHən| (noun) the action or process of causing so much damage to something that it no longer exists or cannot be repaired

The combo is always bad news. Every day there are fewer places left that wildlife could call home. This is due to human activities—like agriculture, oil exploration, or water diversion. Such activities make it extremely difficult for animals t

 A Busy Street:

I am once again in that street where I first saw you.  It is one of the busiest places in the whole city.  I remember the smile on your beautiful lips.  Even today the slight trembling of your lower lip tickles my entire self.  I remember you were strolling in the street, which was looking narrow and so small because of heavy rush of traffic and large number of people, who were passing through it.  The street is in the center of the city, and you were the center of my attention.  

My dear friends! One of our EC members, the Way to the Moon (hope, she is still on the Earth with us! Smile!), has just given me a great idea and I am about  to implement it right away! Sure, when you hear or read English, you should catch the general sense and all my previous blogs were about understanding English idioms. But it is another matter when you start speaking or writing yourselves. You should be 100% sure how to use this or that idiom or not use it at all if you don't want to sound f

The Australian education system welcomes the initiative students and focuses on independent learning. Here, you will not be forced to attend lectures and read educational materials, because students are expected to have responsible behavior and independent decision making.

Severe requirements for attendance are valid only in the laboratory and practical classes. In Australian universities, students are given materials recommended for reading before class. Reading this material is optional, but it

The value of the English language as a means of international communication can not be overestimated. It is difficult to see how there would be a world of modern business, not whether business people from all over the world the possibility to understand each other, no problem to discuss on the phone any questions, enter into partnerships and other business relationships with complex contracts and simply talk over dinner.
English is now taught by people of all ages. Not only pupils and students,

We have been in Beijing twice. First time We just stayed for one night. But second time we went to roam around. Our hotel was near the airport.On the way we found every transport had to go through checking before entering Beijing.

We arrived at noon and went to Dicos to have launch. Then our hosts told us to get ready to go to see''Great wall''. Hey, we were not in proper clothing. So, we argued with them. And, told we want to go next morning.

They became a bit disappointed but accepted our demand

Have you seen lately anyone with a semicolon drawn on their skin?

This is the story about a nonprofit movement started in April 2013, in honor to Amy Bleuel's father, who took his own life, and to give voice to her own fight with mental illness:

"The idea was to encourage anyone haunted by these demons to draw a semicolon on their body, photograph it, and share it to encourage love and to inspire."

Why a semicolon?
This 'movement' took the semicolon as symbol to the choice to continue life, beca

During our China visit, we stayed most of the time in Tianjin. It is a port city. Our seminar was about economical development for Bangladesh. So, we visited its free trade zone, special economic zone, scientific park etc. But, of course we  got chances to do shopping, eating outside and to roam around in some important places of this city.

In the very beginning most of the tress were barren. But after some days we enjoyed blossoms. Though not sure about their names. Some flowers were deep pink,

First off, don't hate me; I'm just a messenger. Second, how many times have you bought a famous brand name and kicked yourself for doing it? I'm not one to judge (I am, actually), but it seems like that some companies tend to decrease the quality of their products drastically the very moment they make sure that they won't end up like The Bluth Company! I could name a dozen real enterprises who failed miserably, but let's not go there. To add insult to injury, some companies don't even bother to
