The abandoned house (part two)

Rick slowly took the stairs one by one. At the ninth or the tenth step he stopped. The door was shut by itself. Rick's heart began to pound quickly and he looked down at the others. Eva told him to retreat and come back. He was sweating from fear, but he refused and continued cautiously. When he reached the door he started to open it and hesitated to hold the knob of the door.

Finally, he grabbed it quickly and tried to open it. It was i

There is an issue for many peoples about money and time management. I just finished the construction of my new house and at the end i learned how to manage the time and money by dealing the peoples from different fields. During the house construction you have to deal with many peoples simultaneously such as builders, painters, plumbers, labors, etc. Firstly, you have to manage time in a way that you can have look to all of them during the day. Secondly, You have to communicate with everyone in a

OneeYes, Onee is now a blog moderator. Congratulations!

It makes sense we have an additional blog moderator -  there are so many blogs posted here on MyEC every day, and sometimes I have difficulty adding comments or moderating blogs.

Onee has been an active member here - she enjoys reading and commenting on blogs, and she has also published a lot of interesting blogs. I really appreciate it!

So, I'm sure Onee will make a great moderator. Do you think so?

China is very rich in coal resources. Since the large sized coal mines are usually associated with kaolin, so kaolin resource is very abundant in our country. As the paper-making industry and coating industry advance, China's papermaking and coating markets are quite fierce. But due to the lack of kaolin resources, they are now in a shrinking period.
The value of raw kaolin ores is not high. Generally speaking, kaolin is sold out after having been ground by basic milling machines. In the process

Hi, my friends! It is time to post one more grammar test, isn’t it? You know what to do! You should correct all the mistakes without changing the meaning of my sentences. This test is not easy but it is not the toughest I can propose. So, here you are!

1. At the bar I didn’t recognize the guy stared on me despite he rode the same with me cab.

It's been a long time since I shared a blog, because I was busy in studies and other things. Today I thought to share my views on something through blogging. So let's get the ball rolling. 

“A business that makes nothing but money is a poor business. Do you agree?”

I read this quote on the internet and thought to share my views on it. 

     I pretty much agree with the quote because the sole purpose of a business must not be earning money but also a good reputation. No doubt that money is the essen

EARTHQUAKES

It was  a cold night, it had been raining for a few days , seas of people were lining up waiting for their turn  to help. They werent  worrying  about the rain, their adrenaline level was so high, needless to say that all the people were sad but they knew that  there were  people who really needed their help.

A rescuer lifted his fist , ALL OF A SUDDEN, , all the people who were around did the same keeping silent . Raising a hand was a sign , all the people needed to stay silent becau

Hi, my friends! You know every time I read your masterpieces before going to bed, I always see some weird nightmares. This time one of the expressions threw me back to the age of slavery. I don’t mind feeling a slave just for a change. So, here are the expressions that made my fantasy go so far.

1. “My brother tried to eat us out.” Why not if you did something wrong although brothers are usually quite merciful to their sisters. To eat somebody out means to scold, to reprimand, to call down. In fact,

Here in my country we love to celebrate birthdays. There are of course many reasons behind it but the most important is that we find very polite to wish our family members, friends, colleagues or boss. Either we do it personally, on the phone or via a text message. Do believe me some people might get even offended, if you forget their birthday.

The family celebrations with the closest relatives usually take part at home of the celebrated person (sometimes at the restaurant) on the weekend – usual

The abandoned house

The students wanted to spend the weekend in a different way this time. Maria suggested the beach, but her boyfriend objected to that. They went to the beach last weekend. Gene suggested climbing the mountains, but Sara disapproved. Gene knew that Sara is having her period and she could not climb or even look at the top of the mountain, leave alone getting to the top of it. Suddenly, Eva shouted, "Hey guys! Look here, how about going to the country

It was a very dark night when I woke up through a  noise like a loud bang.
I was annoyed because I had dreamed sweetly.
My hand went to the side of the bed where my husband should be but he was not there. I wondered where he was because we were far from the city in a small wooden house in the forest.

Outside I heard the voice of someone. I did not try to turn on the light. I got up to see where my husband was but I couldn't find him in the whole house. I took a look through a small gap in the curt

This is another blog I have tried on the topic 'Abandoned House', (provided in Eva's Writing Challenge), which I have used as a metaphoric symbol.  Maybe it is found by the readers as somewhat philosophical.

When we are in suffering and difficulties, a stage comes when we considered ourselves as an “abandoned house” haunted by the miseries. An abandoned house is a place where no one wants to come or pay a visit.  But when a passerby sees a single thin line of a light, there arises a hope for the

A while ago, I had a task to write lyrics and come up with a vocal party for 5 instrumental songs.

As always, the crisis of inspiration came out of nowhere.

The worst timing ever.

I'm listening to the instrumentals, and they're good, but there's nothing in my head. Nada, nichts, zero. An empty bubble of brain cannot synthesize material out of total emptiness.

What do I do?

First thing, I fight off panic. Anxiety is a good old pastime for an extremely emotional and active modern young woman, but more

English is an important language and it is the mostly used language in the world. When you are learning English all you need is a good teacher who teaches you. You might take English language classes and you have a very good teacher who teaches you English very well but keeps in mind that you need a teacher who would always be with you.
English dictionary is the best teacher as well as a very good friend of yours. If you do not have a good dictionary learning English is awfully very hard. This a

Training to become an English teacher for what seems like the better part of your youth is something that many prospective young people attempt to do. After all, it’s good to feel like you are influencing young minds to go down a path of learning English and self-discovery and make a living out of it.
What happens today, however, is that teaching English in itself has transformed under the pressure of technology. Whether you are a home-schooled individual or a longtime teacher, you have felt the

Hola EC people!

*poke to A738a*

I guess most of you already noticed a new category in MyEC's Discussion Forum titled: "Introduce Yourself *smiley*"

It was opened on August or so and there you can read this description:

"For new members, feel free to introduce yourself here so other members can get to know you"

Some of you already know how much I love to follow rules so, when I read "For new members" I thought to myself: "What the...? These three words can't stop me!!" XD
