Thanks a lot Luci for such amazing challenge. :D
Once upon a time there was an Island of aliens where toilet paper was the only abundantly grown plant found. Houses were like a broken egg with green lighting inside them and the shell of the eggs were brown. The aliens saw a flying bicycle on the sky and took shelter in their green lighted broken eggs, because they were afraid of humans. Soon the flying bicycle landed on the Island and a human stepped down from it, holding a big empty bag and star
When I read Luci's challenge, I wonder, who on Earth can come up with some sort rational story line with all those words. LOL. Then it struck me, there's no need to be rational. I can come up with totally rambling short story and blame it all to an alien and say that it's my 'artistic creative' idea. :)
~~~~~~ The Story ~~~~~~
Since landed on this Alien Island, Luci found out that life was not so hard after all. Ohh! She won't call it a bed of roses either, but except for some bigger than elephan
Hello guys,
I was thinking about some "Challenge" and would like to test your creativity. It isn't big deal at all, just write a story - only 50-70 words BUT use these words:
DESTROY, TORTURE, TOILET PAPER, LIGHT, KNIFE, ALIEN, ISLAND
Just write a blog and give it title: Short Story Challenge: + add your title
All above mentioned words should be in the story so these who would like to give it title TOILET PAPER ISLAND can forget about it :-)
!!! I am looking forward to read funny stories from you !!!
I am serious on improving my business writing skills. If any of you interested in practicing writing effective emails. Please let me know. We can work together to achieve the same goal.

It's my mother with her sons..
We really love our mother, she is a patient woman I've ever seen. Thank you so much that you have taken care of us. May God bless you mother.
Last night I came across with a ghost. She seemed to be very dejected. She reminded me “Moaning Martyl” of Harry Potter Series. I felt a deep sorrow for her and asked why she was wandering between heaven and earth. She told me the following story:

I have been wandering since I have given my life to my love. He had the coolest heart, but threre had always been a warm smile on his face. He was handsome. In my eyes he was prince charming, but he had always filled with gloom. He might have
It was an unforgettable morning full of excitement and expectations. Finally we made it, we will spend incredible holiday as a family together. Since there isn't lately anything impossible we decided to fly to the Moon. Our friends enjoyed unbelievable honeymoon two years ago in 2089 there and their experiences fascinated me so much that the Moon became my dream destination. We packed stuff and we were ready, our journey people 20 years ago considered something unrealizable, got started. First o
First of all, why do we need to study the language? Does learning this foreign language will help us? If your answer is yes, then my basic programs for your improvements, will helps you. I want my students to learn the ENGLISH for you to get the Instructions and works well with the company you're working for.
If you want to be accepted in an ENGLISH SPEAKING country, of course, you need to learn the culture.
Just recently I have tested my student to try an instructions but it makes me cry the whol
Literally, I spent a terrible night yesterday. Whole night I couldn't sleep a wink. Actually I went shopping in the evening. But, it was a horrible experience by all means. Which dress I chose first was unaffordable. Then I went for another, I did bargain but the salesman made it nonnegotiable! After being failure, I went to dine in a fine restaurant with my family. There were plenty of edible food items but due to some unavoidable circumstances, I couldn't enjoy it. Specially my kid didn't feel
Hi, again. I was searching for my new English books and I found interesting facts about this language and I'd like to share it here. So, here they are :)
Did you know there are many syndromes or terms that are based on people and sometimes unfortunate circumstances that befell those people? We may be familiar with terms such as Stockholm Syndrome, and its opposite the Lima Syndrome. Whereas, one of the most famous syndromes that I read is the Pavlov's Dog Syndrome.
Anyway, in this blog, I want to share some terms and syndromes that derived from certain circumstances or people, and the story behind the name.

Changes in life is inevitable. It happens all the time. Either by choice or destiny.
There are new changes in my life. First, my age. Now, 73. My new profile picture shows some creases on my face and prominently on my neck. Also, my hair changed to salt & pepper.
Habits also changed as we age. My sleep is now fragmented I hate to admit it - I feel sleepy at 9:00 a.m. and 8:00 p.m. So, I missed the television news and one telenovela. Other times, I can't sleep at all.

Hi Everyone,
Just as you can see, I'll try to make some corrections for anyone who really wants to be corrected, or whenever I see the "correction tag", which means you don't mind others correcting you in public/openly.
English is such a tricky language, so it's inevitable for you (a learner of English) to make some mistakes in your writing. In fact, we all make mistakes - even a native English teacher. But we learn from our mistakes.
The problem is that we may have failed to spot the mistakes in o
It's really difficult for me to write dialogues but, still I am giving myself a chance.
I have tried to a write dialogue between two friends one of whom lacks confidence.
Tom: Hey, how are you Elly.
Elly: Hi, I'm just fine!
Tom: Just fine? Why? What happened?
Elly: I'm nervous!
Tom: Oh, why you are nervous? Dear you can share your problem with me. Tell me what is bothering you? I will surely try to fix your problem!
Elly: You are my good friend and, I'm sure you probably take me out from the problem.

Autumn depression is here, exactly as I have described it in my blog about autumn, now I HATE YOU, AUTUMN!!! :-) Just pray for me so that it would be soon gone and I wouldn't bother you anymore with some silly poems :-D

I was a kid, it was night and I went to check on my father in the living room, he was reading a book, as usual I was curious to know what was it about, so I asked him to let me take a look, he gave it to me and I started reading but of course I had no clue what "English" is, I only knew it is a "language", anyway I started reading out loud and my father was laughing saying that it's not French to read it that way! at that moment I looked at him and said with confident words "well dad, one d
