When I ask myself "Who is the most important person of our time", I have only one name in my mind - Elon Musk.

If you don`t know who he is, let me explain. He is an entrepreneur of a "new era" - he is the owner of such companies as Tesla Inc., SpaceX, Hyperloop. He was a founder of a well-known payment system PayPal.

He was that person who decided approximately 10 years ago that somebody should demonstrate others power of electrocars - and he did it successfully. He showed automotive companies tha

I dressed up new clothes and set my hair, just for you, my love, but you are gone, and for whom now I would get dress and go out.

The hot sun, in the noon and after when you were with me was like cool shadow for me.  Now these streets seem burning hot.  I never mind meeting your friends just because of you, but now these are stranger to me.  There is no one like you, you were the soul of my pros and my poetry.  Now words feel soulless.  My heart is now deserted.  I kept my empty room lit because

 The FIFA World Cup, 2018 is happening very soon, yes, everybody ( really everybody?!) knows about it and loves it frantically! Really? Some days ago Tina  interviewed some people randomly, let's see!

Tina ( interviewing a  teenage girl): Do you like football?

Girl: Oh, yes, not half, I love it so very much!

Tina:  Great! Then, would you please tell me from when you are into Football?

Girl: Honestly speaking, I am into Football since a few days, it's amazing to think, it has just changed my life, .

Everyday we see some people around us who beg money from us  for various purposes, i,e, to buy food, for treatment purpose, sometimes they say they need our help ( money) as they are  not able to bear the expenditure of their daughters' marriage, even some beg money to buy shroud for their near ones and bla bla bla...

In my childhood when we came to our capital city, my parents used to give them some money and I felt good seeing them helping the poor needy people. Now I live in a big city, now I

"At the 44th minute of the football match, Huda tried to save the goal from the threat of Marcel, but his chest was hit by the leg of Rodrigues. He was still able to move, but then he fell unconscious. A few hours after being brought to the hospital, this goalkeeper died. The victory of his team (2-0) was filled with tears and hysterical weepings of the members and passionate fans of the team in the stadium." (real news, happened in my place, few months ago)

I lived by myself before I became your mother

I used to pretend to be tough enough to do hard work, wearing high-heeled shoes and painting my nails

Now I cut my nails because I play with my child

I wear clothes that are easy to move in because I work part‐time 

because I am your mother

I wake up at 5:00 am feeling sleepy because I am your mother

I give my favorite food that I should eat to you because I am your mother

I remember train's names because I am your mother

I always take care of you more than

A disappointment is the result of false expectations of something or someone. Also if we don't like to be disappointed, every disappointment always brings us closer and closer towards the truth.
Every single disappointment opens our eyes, but also closes our hearts bit by bit, making us more distanced.
So we should not put our trust in anyone until we feel strong enough to face a disappointment and have learned to accept the pain as part of our lives.
The life is an art and the best teacher. We hav

To me the friendlist here in MyEC is a very good gadget for listing friends and enable them to gather personal information about yourself. You also might share intimate images (intimate not to mean sexual interaction or show off or something) but things you don´t want to be seen by everyone. 

But it is also a chance for people to collect information about one and use them for an attack, offence and insult.

In wise prevision the creator(s) of this site provided us with the option to decide ourselve

I think i've told this story sometime here in the chat; or I've written about it in a comment before. I can't really remember. But now I feel like sharing it here in this blog.

Before coming here, I was member of another English learning site (Italki, but don't even bother looking for it, it sucks now) It was just like MyEC but more active and it was cool till a biggest company bought it and changed everything to make it all commercial: They removed the chat room and the site turned into a very i

Hello there.

I'm on cloud nine at the moment. Let me share you the reason of my excitement. I am a teacher at private language school. I teach English as a foreign language. This morning we (teachers) had to carry out the Pearson Test of English (Edexcel), (LCCI ), (EDI) for exam candidates. Before the exam, by chance, we got an inspection from the British Council officials without any ratting and some of us were questioned about examination regulations related to invigilator declaration and atte

Hi everyone,

I request the highest of fives. :))

We all know the upcoming event, the 2018 World Cup, is being held in Russia from June 14 to July 15. Aren't you so excited for that? I, myself, am neither an observer of any football team in the world nor a football game fan. Anyway, the World Cup event seems to always make almost everybody around the globe be in the grip of football fever. What about you?

The World Cup event should also be an opportunity for us to lift our spirits in learning Englis

I am crawling, grovelling and sometimes, I run, nevertheless, I have been moving very slowly to get to the number one hundred blog. Shame on you Dara! People have already done more than four hundred blogs and you are still creeping to get to your one hundred blogs. If you divide those blogs into the number of years on My EC, the outcome or the consequences would be very disappointing.          

Now, I have reached it but honestly, I do not know what to tell the reader? Now, shall I tell him about

Racism takes many forms and can happen in many places. It includes prejudice, discrimination or hatred directed at someone because of their cast, color, culture (ethnicity) or national origin.

People often associate racism with acts of abuse or harassment. However, it doesn’t need to involve violent or intimidating behavior. Take racial name-calling and jokes. Or consider situations when people may face hatred of certain groups because of where they are from what are their cultural traditions eve
