If somebody wears a gold liripipe on his biretta, it is just a tribute to his doctorate degree, but nothing more for me. Our same mortarboards sit next to each other in the closet and I am sure that my biretta always asks her companion what its master is up to. And, I tell you, his master is always up to something! To be a good chemist is a true temptation! He always knows the right mix to make a man get drunk or to make a lady feel excited. He is a great mixologist and a great deipnosophist and

When my friends and I decided to go to Perth for our holiday, I told them that one of the places that I want to visit is the Pinnacles. The last time when I was there, we didn't have enough time to drive further to North of Perth.

So, a day before our departure from Perth (this time we decided to be there for 8 days), we drove to Pinnacles. Unfortunately, that day was one of the hottest days in Perth. The drive to Pinnacles roughly about 3 and half hours. As usual, my friend Dilla and I decided t

Hello Everyone,

I'm not very choosy when it comes to write. My EC have given us a great platform to improve our English. I remember I took so much time to write my 1st Blog.

It was about EC members, I dedicated that blog to some of my good friends in EC. I made so many friends in EC from different countries. It was a great experience.

I may not be good in writing but trust me I'm much better than before.

My friends helped me improving my English, we used to have conference calls on Skype. First time

A tweet of a mayor in Japan generated argument on gender segregation. He tweeted that "Is this a gender segregation opinion that I don't want male nursery staff to help my daughter change clothes?". I think her daughter is a little child who is around 3～6 years old. He said they  sometimes switched to female nursery staff to help female babies change clothes because of complaints like this.

There are various comments about this. For example, "It is reasonable for a female to be uneasy about male

Yes, you say 'as was expected', 'as follows' or 'as is well known'  - not 'as it was expected' or 'as it follows' or 'as it is well known'.

You shouldn't add the pronoun 'it' after the 'as', because 'as' acts as the subject - you don't need another subject 'it'. For example, you can say 'Expector will add another comment on the blog today, as happened yesterday."

The word 'as' can also act as an objective or complement, for example, "MyEC members keep writing blogs, as they did last year."

In addit

Sorry I don't upload any photos coz it is my private collections with my best friend.

You see it's so hard to arrange appointment especially with a house wife like her.

My stomach is full but my male friend who works here offers us free salad.

My husband advised me not to take advantage of him. But it's impolite if I say no, right?

After all it's my 39th bday why can't I eat and have fun with free WIFI?

He even brought us a bowl of ice creams! Lucky us!

The moral of the story is never underestimate yo

Yes, it may have something to do with pronunciation if you find it hard to memorize a word or understand what they're saying or said on the radio or TV. 

Some words are so hard to pronounce, though. It helps if you have learned how to pronounce a word by the International Phonetic Alphabet or Smart Phonics, but it doesn't work when you're trying to pronounce a word which is derived from Latin or Greek or other non-English languages. How about some of the names of people, places, microbes, plants,

Just a boffola?
A very funny deipnosophist
was working as a columnist.
His name was Aron-Asimoto,
he called himself "The couch potato".

A dry run or a rehearsal,
was used by him as dispersal.
To screw up that was not his way
not even not for just to play.

As mister of the universe,
he loved a very pretty nurse.
He loved her on a wobbly gurney,
and felt like on a crazy journey.

Someone had stolen his beretta,
and he was calling for vendetta.
His weapon was a rolling pin,
so he was not about to win.

Why was he no

There was a man and his name was John. He was 30 years old at that time of my story.                       
I am sure, if COUCH POTETO or  MOUSE POTETO were professions, John would have had been one of the people with one of that kind of professions. John has lived in a big house. He has left the house very seldom. He wasn't that communicative, what means he wasn't a DEIPNOSOPHIST.

John has loved his big house with air condition inside and a TRANSOM outside.
Sometimes friends has visited him, a

    This morning, while going through the news on BBC, I came across an interesting article written by David Robson dealing with "foreign" words used to describe emotional feelings in a research project carried out by Tim Lomas.

    The below posted entry is a resume of a long article in a form of passages randomly selected to my whim and fancy.

Lomas’s Positive Lexicography Project aims to capture the many flavours of good feelings (some of which are distinctly bittersweet) found across the world

Aloha EC people!

It’s been a while since I don’t write any blog but some people here are suggesting so very cool challenges that... how could I skip it?! I love Onee’s challenge (Thanks Onee!) so this is my dialogue with a stranger.

Thanks in advance to all of you who are suggesting challenges and taking part; but also big thanks to all of these members  who are just reading and commenting. You’re helping to keep this site alive! ^_^

My “Meeting a Stranger” dialogue i

For how many years I had lived a solitary life, but not anymore, I didn’t choose this, still, it happened, I didn’t ask yet it came, and I won’t deny the overjoyed emotions captivated my being. It feels like home.

“Father, my teacher told me you need to visit my school. She wants to talk to you.” Light said that early evening.

“Why so? What did you do this time?” I said calmly to my 5-year-old “son”.

“You’re always thinking the worst about me, Father. She wants to tell you about the upcoming event.

Topic: The Universe
Grammar Section: Indirect Question

TEACHER: OK, Class. Today, we will talk about the Universe. Can anyone tell me what you know about the Sun?

GAMA: It’s the nearest star to the Earth and also the center of our Solar System.

TEACHER: Good, Gama! That’s right. Now does anyone know how long it takes the Earth to revolve around the Sun?

FIKKRY: It takes three hundred sixty five and a quarter days.

TEACHER: Wow! Perfect, Fikkry! That’s why we have A LEAP YEAR every four years, and the

Happy holidays all! Tomorrow is my birthday yay! But now I'm waiting at WIFI Ibis Trans Studio Hotel Bandung with my father who's reading Jakarta Post newspaper and other local ones. I don't have my photo in the hotel. You can google it.

I enjoy my short stay here even though I don't have time to visit my school friends here. I went to 2 malls as usual and returned some novels to Hendra's Library (my husband's name is also Hendra).
