I introduce three children's games in Japan.
Irooni: First, the children choose an oni(target). When the oni says a color, the other children must keep touching the color before the oni catches them. If someone is caught by the oni before touching the color, the child will become an oni.
Darumasangakoronda: First, the children choose an oni. The oni stands facing a wall. The other children stand to the right a little away from the oni. The oni says "Darumasangakoronda" and turns to face the ot

A few seconds after Batuhan left the chatroom, I logged in…
A sudden popped of private message came to prompt…
Stranger: Hi Risty! How are you?
Hmm..moving the cursor.. click “view profile”… from Germany…think, think, ok.I want to have new friends, I’ll try this one.
Me: Hello! Good afternoon Mr.___
Stranger: Just call me ___, you want to improve your English, right?
Sounds interesting.

Stranger: I will tell you something, you
Well, well! It seems it was not a good idea to start this year with the test on advanced grammar! OK, your answers made me change my mind and propose you much easier test. Again, you should find and correct all the mistakes in each sentence. There may be more than one mistake in each sentence (their number is in the brackets). You can change the word order if it is wrong, add or delete articles, prepositions, change tenses, voices, but you shouldn't replace or add any other words.
Here is your ta
“You’re a cold-blooded monster!” Blue cringed and suddenly smirked then shook his head. I know I am, though it seems like I could kill anyone and accept anyone’s demand someone’s life and wants to be dead with a very reasonable price, in my heart, I couldn’t kill anyone, including this man at my front. I may seem like a beast lying behind this innocent face, holy genes! But I’m not yet qualified to replace satan down there. We talked about so many things happened after we got freed from that mis

My Ode to Destillation
To tell about my distillation:
it's not a kind of pure invention.
Lets make me such sweet fine liquids
and some of men feel like addicts.
My fine liquid is made from fruits
its name is liquor, so it suits.
And when I finish my production
I have to think about my action.
Freelanders will soon asking me
to give them my liquid for free.
Fleixibility is now my task
for that I need to wear a mask.
To wear a mask is my invention
so that I don't lose my attention
Why? People wa
Dear friends,
When Luci left MyEC Chat Room after a stranger had said ‘I love you’, I still continued the chat. :D
STRANGER : ‘I love you’
ME : Ohh, I’m so touched.
STRANGER : You know, I really love you.
ME: How can? But we even never had met before…
STRANGER: You made me love you more . . .
ME: Hey, is it you in your profile picture? You look so handsome. I believe many girls are around you there.
(:D :D Just joking. Trying to distract his nonsense. :p)
STRANGER: I don’t have any girl, dear. I’m alon
Early morning at the coffee shop.
Someone coughed at the side where I was relaxing and well sit, crossed legs and totally captivated and enthusiastic to what I’m doing to my laptop, I didn’t bother to look who’s that as I know that the coffee shop has so many customers, and there were available seats so I’m sure nobody will interrupt me..Then suddenly he coughed again, oh! Maybe it’s the waiter wanted to asked me if I have something in mind to order, I chinned up and faced the person, I’m right,
This is on the motivation by onee's Dialogue Challenge: Meet A Stranger:
I was as usual alone sitting on the bench in a garden under on big oak tree. I was as usual in my gloom mood, as was missing something.
Me: What is that I am missing?
There was no answer, but the quietness imbibed by my oneself, there were other people, too.
Me: Have I done something wrong? Have I hurt someone? Have I broken someone’s, heart?
Voice, (she): What are you thinking MI? Why are you sad, when you have done what you
This conversation is one of these that really happened, it isn't anything like "once upon a time" but bittersweet reality :D
Stranger (a guy): Hello, how are you doing?
Me: I am fine... you?
Stranger: I am ok
(Awkward silence)
Stranger: Where are you from?
Me: Ehmmm... it is written in my profile.. Are you so lazy to check it?
(Two mins of silence)
Stranger: So you are from the Czech republic. I like this country.
Me: Really? What do you know about it?
(Stranger googling where the hell it is situated ...a
The word ‘Mother’ derives from the Old English term modor, which is cognate with the Latin word mater and the Greek word meter. (From the Latin term, such words as maternal and maternity are derived.)
The term refers not only to a female parent but also to a woman in authority, such as the head of a women’s religious community; it was also long employed as a respectful term of address for an elderly woman. It may also apply to an origin, precursor, or source, as in the expression “Necessity is t
Yes, we've been trying to encourage you to write more and we do have reason to do so.
Only when you write can you realize that it's not always easy to write something readable or interesting. Only by writing can you really improve your writing skills. So, it makes sense for us to come up with some writing challenges or blog challenges which we think will inspire you to write more.
It takes a lot of time and effort to write skillfully or fluently, and it can be so frustrating or discouraging when y
Well, I am laughing while typing these lines! To join such words like DISTILLATION, FLEXIBILITY and FREELOADER in one verse is not an easy task. But I like to solve insoluble problems. So, here is my verse. Sure, it is funny and is not good at all, but I like ad-lib, so there you go!
Why not to write about distillation,
One of the greatest world inventions?
This word inspires me giving a chance
To write much more than a single stanza.
Its final product is the nectar,
A godlike pure fantastic drink

Hi All,
Everyday is going to become a new day for us. None of us can predict how the day will be. It is not in our control.
Suppose we lost an opportunity yesterday, that may come tomorrow. Or you may get a better one.
So stop thinking about the unfulfilled past think about the brighter future tomorrow.
What is going to come tomorrow is purely based upon your thinking. Today if you are thinking good, you are going to get something good. If you are thinking bad, you are going to get a bad. So be care
Winds passed through yellow colored dry forest say it's a difficult time for everyone, there was no rain from the middle of last year...., animals are running here and there looking for a drop of water...weakers were hunted by the strongest one, their miserable life will change the tomorrow fate..... I can't change the every worst thing that going to be suffered them but I did something for them...I kept a pot of water for innocent animals and drops some grains for them..... So I'm glad to think
This is my 50th blog and I think it must be special, then I read Onee's challenge. so, I dedicate this to Onee, hope she likes it, lol..
Stranger : Excuse me, mind if I join?
Me : Sure, please.
-an awkward silence-
Stranger : You looks quiet.
Me : I am (smiling), I have nothing to say and none to tell.
Stranger : What is it about?
Me : Pardon?
Stranger : In your head, what are you
Good morning, all MyEC friends,
Today is January 19th, 2017. But, why do I still not see writing challenges or bunch of your wonderful thoughts on posts? :(( I only see a few of yours. :((( You see the number of blogs in this month is only 71 blogs (in statistics) until today.
Will you let it be? Where are the challengers? Or maybe any of you will be a new challenger, why not? Where are enthusiastic learners?? Holiday is over anyway. :D :D What about making blog or any other posts once a month? Is
I WAS WAITING FOR A FRIEND AT THE TERRACE OF MY HOUSE, AND A STRANGER CAME...
STRANGER : Excuse me!, May I have your little time, please?
ME : Sure. What's that about?
STRANGER : Do you know Tunjungan Plaza mall?
ME : Yes, I do. Why?
STRANGER: We hold a fair during this week there. Have you ever been there?
ME : Yeah. But, it's been a while since I last went there.
STRANGER : Do you have any plan to go there this week?
ME : Mm....I think, NO.
STRANGER : Okay. Let me tell you that we have a perfume produc
Some people decide to use university to have fun, hang out and sample the different flavors that life has to offer. More power to them, I say. Others, however, decide to use it to more professional ends. They use it to kick start their career.
And that too I can understand. After all, there really is no better place to start out your career than a university. After university, you’ll have to deal with being seen as young and inexperienced. And that is something you can only change by growing olde
