Who is he? Do I know? Friendship isn't just about long-term relationships, why not to write about something little bit unknown? In fact he gives an impression of a mysterious guy, which might draw attention of others but he doesn't do it on purpose, it is his natural side. His nice words and attitude shows he is very kind guy with beautiful heart and even though I can't say I know him pretty good, I just like this process of getting to know him more and more and sharing interesting things with h

I am really happy I got unique opportunity to destroy oooppsss to describe personality of my friend, whom I have known for half a year and even though it seems like short time period, I can say I know him quite good (don't forget, guys Luci is great psychologist :D). As we both come from totally different backgrounds, continents, societies etc. I can say despite this all we have many things in common - especially our hobbies, sense of humour and egoistic traits...

Anyway...enough of blablaing,

She is like my twin, no doubt I have heard here several times that Luci is Mary :O Anyway, WE AREN'T one, sorry to disappoint you, guys. I like the most about Mary that she doesn't pretend anything...she is simply herself and behaves very naturally. I know that for some strangers she might give impression of tough tigeress but believe me that she is my cute little cow ..oops.. kitten :D I can say she is this kind of friend, who gives hand to somebody, when they are in need. This is one of the mo

Nowruz is the Persian, or Iranian, spring celebration of the New Year. It’s the most important festival of the year in Iran, and it's a public holiday there and in Kazakhstan, Azerbaijan, Afghanistan, Albania and other countries in South and Central Asia. It’s a happy occasion, and there may be as many as 13 days’ holiday from school!

When is it?

Nowruz begins at the exact day, hour and minute of the spring equinox, when night and day are of equal length. This is usually on 21 March. It’s the day

As I took my step forward

My heart is pounding like a coward

This warm air that I felt beneath my feet

Encouraging for conquering as this love beat

You are there, sitting at the corner

Giving your attention to all people you could bear

If I could, I will come closer and wherever

I will follow your every gesture, any side you stare

You’re smiling eyes that are so mesmerizing

I want to swim to that deep that illicitly pleasing

Can I touch your face and run my fingers

Trace every feature in my dreams that l

Hi guys. My full name is Nixie Wulandari. I’m 14 years old in February. Everybody calls me Nix or Wulan. I’ll tell you who are in my family. First there is Dad, Edward Nakamura. He works for the International Health Institute near my school, Jackson High School. This school was built by Michael Jackson’s fans to memorize him. Second is my Mum, Margaret Ann and I call her Mum Ann. She is a part time Spanish teacher in my school. I have 1 big sister and 1 big brother, which makes me the youngest.

My dear little friend, I know well,

I can’t be your mum, similarly sister,

Any girlfriend or will not be wife,

Also, I know well, I can’t see you,

I can’t meet you, I can’t touch you,

Because I’m only your angel, as you told,

But if you were anywhere,

I’m always thinking,    

If I could, hold your face on my chest,

If I could touch your head motherly,

I can feel you that much,

 I can read your innocent eyes.

Really, I hear your Voice of heart,

When you are crying, Cried me too a lot,

Because you belong my hea

This on the motivation of Luci's Writing Challenge: Who Am I.

It's Me

I am an aging matured man of average height and build (70 to 75 Kgs in weight). I have short shining silver/gray hair,  usually have a center parting, and seldom comb them back. I have French Cut beard and mustache. I have dark blackish brown eyes and eyebrows neither bushy nor thin.

I am a realist as well as an idealist. I am habitually reserved and quiet. I mostly do not exhibit my love and emotions. I am very cautious and disc

It all started one December night a few decades ago. On this special day somewhere in the middle of Eastern European "jungle" full of polluted air it happened. Awesome little Capricorn came to its existence! Yeahhhh... Alien was born! I was born!

Believe it or not but my mom used to say I was a very nice, obedient baby, who was able to wait at one place for hours - in other words - where they left me, they found me (cute dog, right?) Later on as my physical body was growing of course my personali

Do you like psychology?

Do you think, you know yourself the best or you may surprise or even shock yourself with some of your reactions? How do other people around you percieve you? What is your opinion on some of your EC friends? Can you describe them?

Well, here is my Writing Challenge, which might look little bit difficult or hard as your task will be EITHER to share something about yourself OR to share your view on EC member you consider your friend and know something about them...

He walked to that narrow dark alley and he got some plans on his head. Tonight he will do it, whatever it takes.

His steps were almost stumbled, but there’s no slightest slipped as he headed his way home as he was gone for days experienced nearly his deathbed. He stopped at the front of neighbor’s store, “give me one cigarette”, the lady vendor gazed who he was and surprised was written on her face. She handed the cigarette, the man lit it up and turned back. “Hey Gido, where’s your payment?”

The power of love

Longing becomes fulfillment.
Hope becomes certainty.
Loneliness becomes togetherness.
Two bodies becomes to one body.
Isolation becomes unity.
Feeling becomes passion.
Earth becomes heaven .
Sadness becomes happiness.
Doubt becomes trust.
Devil becomes angel.
Day becomes night and night becomes day.
Two hearts compose one song.
You get wings and your souls want to fly to the moon
You hold the stars in your hands.
Nobody can stop you.
There is no pain, no guilt,

The idea is not new. It's about making the member of the year as on the American magazine, Time. Every year, the moderators with the other members of the administration choose the member for the new year. Talents play a great role in making the person unique. Hard working with these special abilities can allow someone to perform well. He or she can be given a reward. We do not mind sharing in that reward. For instance, each member pays a dollar once he or she joins the website. For old members,

Dear friends and everyone who is interested in a discussion about an interesting subject.

Recently and by chance I have read following article "Why Solitude should be your fortitude". The meaning of this sentence was meant less as a question than as a statement ... the author referred to his own experiences.  

The author  wrote:

"I haven’t always felt this way; in fact I used to spend a lot of time hiding behind people and activities just so I wouldn’t have to be by myself. But getting older, I

I heard a funny story that a Japanese woman was laughed at by people in an elevator. She had lived in the U.S for a while and one day she went shopping in a department store. She wanted to go to the fifth floor in the department store and got into an elevator. The elevator was very crowded and when it stopped at the fourth floor, a person in the back said "I'm getting out!". She got off the elevator to let the person go because she was standing at the front in the elevator. However she wanted to

It was late spring evening. She came back from work, sat down comfortably in her rocking chair with knowing that today after many centuries she was about to do it. To wash away own soul from dirt, to recharge ageless, tired mind. She closed her green eyes, took a breath and slowly started releasing all the pressure supressed somewhere deep inside of her. One by one all of these melancholic memories, untold words, hidden frightening emotions were slowly vanishing, as if they were getting out of t

Hello lovely EC birds!

Did you miss me? Don't tell me you didn't!! I even missed myself! XD

Okay, okay! no more jokes... you know I like to talk about MyEC stuff and members and that's why I'm writing this blog.

I guess most of us remember that old section where the EC admin chose the 'Star Members' every month. That section was removed and followed by the one we can see now, the 'Top Members', where members who have set their profile as 'public' and are active in the site (regardless that activit
