I bet nobody is really happy to be corrected, even though they know it's helpful in improving their English. 

Sure, I'm no exception - it can be so frustrating when I know somebody has corrected me. I've been learning English since I was little, and I'm the blog moderator of MyEC, a well-known English learning and teaching website. Can you imagine how frustrated or disappointed I was when I knew I was still making mistakes?

"No, no - I'm supposed to speak fluent English and my English writing shou

6.36 p.m.

             I was driving . I stopped at the red signal . There was nothing to do then I  looked at green grass along a road moving like strong waves in the sea . Trees were been shaking by the strong wind . The sky was grey . I was waiting for green traffic light . My car moved after the green light shone . Suddenly it rained . After the rain , I saw the first rainbow at 6.36 pm . It was 167 days of 2016 till the first rainbow showed up here .

             That was the perfect 180 degree rainbo

I rejected aggrieved,

have something up your sleeve

This is in response to Expector's 

Blog Challenge: have something up your sleeve

It is extremely difficult to get the picture of what is happening around the world.  The onlooker just see the superficial  hustles and bustles occur around and start talking, or put the blame of the happening on certain section of the society instead of thinking about the circumstances which cause the occurring.  It may be possible that the incident in itself has something up its sleeve.  There may be some ulterior m

Yes, it's an idiom which means 'have a secret idea or plan that you intend to use later' or 'have a surprise plan or solution (to a problem)'.

You may have something good or bad in your sleeve, for example, you may try to cheat by having a card hidden in your sleeve:)  I hope you have something great for a puzzling problem or a situation, though. 

You could write a short paragraph by using the idiom - it can be fun if you really get the picture. Here's a sample paragraph for you:

Dear friends,

First let me say, Happy Ramadan! And, I hope, you all are doing good. This is holy month Ramadan so I am doing fast. This year I am more concern about food than before. Everyday I am trying to arrange healthy  items. And, trying to avoid  fried and spicy food. Though, is it not that easy!

Still it is summer here. So, most of the time we are getting very harsh and hot weather. Hence, sometimes rain comes and make life easier. How about over there?

Now I would like to say what food/ mea

Kill Them with Kindness

Have you been in a situation where your skills and creativity were underappreciated? Or have you ever been mocked because of your race, religion, and physical qualities? If so, please take a few minutes to read my writing.

Life is unfair. If it isn't, then there's no discrimination or hatred. Bill Gates even mentioned it in one of his speeches. In the real world and on the Internet, you'll meet lots of people who are boastful, ruthless, and self-absorbed. They're everywhere! They love to steal yo

Revenge is sweet

Don Corleone nodded. "Revenge is a dish that tastes best when it is cold," he said.

The Godfather, 1969.

Revenge is a dish best served (or eaten) cold.

proverb vengeance is often more satisfying if it is not exacted immediately.

What about you? Do your plans always backfire on you?

Dearest readers

It has been long time since my last blog, I missed to write something, but honestly I don't have any idea what to write and how to start.

Until I found my Dada Seeker's blog...

I love cooking, one of my activity to get rid of a boring time, to forget about my difficult hours at work, to pretend there's nothing happened when I got a broken heart...hehehehe

The truth reason is the last one...

Cooking for me not just to serve a food on the dining table, to make your stomach full after hu

It's all Greek to me

Yes, you got it - it means 'it's too difficult for me to understand'. Hey, don't get me wrong - it's not that 'what you wrote is all Greek to me':)

In fact, I'm trying to learn more about medical terminology (medicine English) - a mouthful! Some of the terms are just too long or too difficult to pronounce - they are driving me up the wall

Some of the words are just Greek while some are derived from Latin. It can be so hard to memorize them - unless you've got an amazing or insanely good memory!

Purpose of our lives 1

I have read many books that suggest ways to discover the purpose of my life. All of them could be classified as "self-help" books because they approach the subject from a self-centered viewpoint. Self-help books, even Christian ones, usually offer the same predictable steps to finding your life's purpose: Consider your dreams. Clarify your values. Set some goals. Figure out what you are good at. Aim high. Go for it! Be disciplined. Believe you can achieve your goals. Involve others. Never give u

I spend hours playing chess because I find it so much fun.

The day it stops being fun is the day I give up. 
Magnus Carlsen - youngest world chess champion

Hello folks, 

I have chosen number 7, cuz I like it, more than 9 or 5, which I also like.

And easiest to write is blog, I don't know what is difference between story and essay.

To be hones, I don't know precisely what word "hobby" means.

Just learns somewhere that hobby is "an activity that you do for pleasure when you are not working".

So, what I li
