My 'Dinner guest" is a lady whom I got acquainted on internet. I happened to travel to USA so I got the chance and invited her on dinner while I was in transit.
So here is my DINNER GUEST
Dé.jà vu
I was waiting for her in the hotel lobby, where I had to have a short stay as a transit passenger. I did not give her the time, but I e-mailed only the name of the hotel in which the airline was going to provide me the lodging. I had nothing to do specifically there in the hotel, so I came down to the
At first I thought about that who could be the one whom I want to invite at dinner. I'm not miser person but I think if you invite someone at your home for dinner. You should cook something at home otherwise you can take him/her to a restaurant.
There is no one who ever impressed me, that's another fact that I love watching Shakira's dance, but never ever thought to spend or share time with her.
I love spending time with people with whom I can feel comfortable and enjoy my time by sharing ideas a
Life has gone by in describing your name,
Yet, the heart of mine is still full of shame
I am badly entangled in devil's hand
Please save me, my Lord! from devil's game.
He always tries to derail my life's train
The goal I have makes hard for me to gain
He applies all his tricks to make me insane
Please pull me out, my God! from devil's chain.
My Lord! I have very sensitive feeling
I don't know the tricky way of living
People enjoy playing with my feeling
Please hold me, my Lord! I am falling
Have you ever heard of natto or maybe even eaten some natto?
This is a fermented bean dish eaten in Japan and the "A" makes the sound of "A" in father or the "O" in not. So, what is so special about natto?
The first thing you might notice with natto is that it is very sticky and the beans are covered with something like glue. Another thing you may notice is the smell. Some people think of dirty socks when they smell natto. My natto didn't smell that bad, but when I removed the plastic cover my fi
This month, I'd like to challenge you to plan a dinner party with a special guest of your choice!
Your Task
1. Decide who you would invite for dinner. This can be anyone. Your guest can be dead, alive, famous, or even fictional (i.e. a character from a book or movie).
2. Decide what you would serve for dinner.
3. Decide who else would be at the table. Would it be a dinner for two, or would you include friends or family members?
4. Write a paragraph explaining why you chose this dinner guest. What w
It was a cool evening. I was once again standing before the Pyramids, where I first met her. I didn't know whether it was a dream or live reality. My eyes were looking for her with all the desires in them a life can have. A strange fragrance tickled my nostrils; there she was coming, moving in a slow motion, or rather floating. Her pink rose dress was flapping with the rhythm of wind. I stretched my arms, though she was still far away, but very next moment her warm body was in my arms. I c
There are so many activities, we try to engage ourselves in, to spend our leisure time. One of the greatest activities, I have explored, is writing,which not only keeps our mind healthy, but also brings about educational growth, which plays a vital role in career building process.
Whereas, some people prefer cooking to any other activities, to keep themselves busy in their free time. I had no idea that cooking is also a very creative job and great art unless I, myself, experienced it. B
Music versus videos
Today in the morning I suffered from the big cultural shock!! I watched Lady Gaga's latest video clip and didn't believe my eyes! Maybe I am too old, puritan, maybe I was raised in the different way but seriously to watch a video where singer prefers showing their half-naked body and music is there just something like coulisse, it didn't impress me at all. Honestly it made me feel disgusted and I really despise "artists" like this.
Lately I found out that such videoclips are al
Hello Everyone,
This is my participation in Garima's writing challenge, find below the beginning of the story by Garima.
Carrie Allen took a deep breath and sat down on the couch in the drawing room next to Brad, twin brother. She knew their father going to give them a bad news. She glanced at Brad who shook his head. He appeared just as shocked as she was that their father had called them into the room. Their father sat in the chair across from them with a serious look in his face.She didn't want
Writing Prompt ~ House Vs. Home
Dear Jono,
I want to tell you that I just rented a medium house in the surrounds of Paris, capital of France. At first, it seems to be a comfortable house to live, because the street is quiet and green and has few high buildings, the neighbourhood seems likeable and the house is just painted and has brand new pieces of furniture. Moreover, I brought my little cat Paavo to liven my home up when I feel it is too silent over here. You know, I like to arrange cheerful
Hello all,

This is a gift for me from a friend of mine, and with her permission I am blogging it for my friends here to read:
"Colorful Expressions"
It’s now black and white that she never loved me. She is gone forever leaving me in blue. I have been in black mood all the time thinking about her. Last time I have had an argument with her, but I was in grey area about what she was up to.
I was looking at her red face. I would never be a green eyed monster, if she has fallen in love with somebody else. There would be no one more tickled pink than me if she really likes someone else. I will pass with flying colors becau
Until recently, things were black and white for me. I was able to differentiate between right and wrong, true and false, good and bad. But within the last couple of years there has been a paradigm shift, unprecedented, in my life. And what used to exist as “stark distinctions” are “blurred lines” now.
The menace is one, but the dimensions are myriad. And they vary from the civil war in Iraq to NaMo's public endorsement, from the contentious issue of Kashmir to socio-cultural status of women in

Hello everybody.
Direct to the point. Many people say that if you have fun while you are learning, you learn the most. However, many people find the process of learning English difficult, frustrating, and in some cases boring. The point is why not: you go to a class room, revise some grammar rules, rehearse some pronunciation patterns, and fulfill some exercises on grammar and vocabulary. Moreover, people, in several cases, don't have time to go every day for 2 hour to a classroom after a day of
. Mr and Mrs Wormwood were two such parents. They had a son called Michael and a daughter called Matilda, and the parents looked upon Matilda in particular as nothing more than a scab. A scab is something you have to put up with until the time comes when you can pick it off and flick it away. Mr and Mrs Wormwood looked forward enormously to the time when they could pick their little daughter off and flick her away, preferably into the next country or even further than that. It's a funny thing ab
I can see the people who wear clothes printed with strange English. I think the people who wear clothes like that don't know the meaning of those words.
Many years ago, I asked my mother to buy a hat. The hat my mother bought had the word "Bitch" printed on it. It is a dirty word, isn`t it？ If she had known the meaning of the word "Bitch" she never would have bought it.
A few days ago I went to a reflexology therapist to get some massages. This therapist is quite well-known around our city. He practices reflexology not only for relaxation as others might do, but also for treatment for various kinds of diseases from mild to severe ones. Many have proved and acknowledged his skill.
He is a retired government officer so he is an educated person. It was somewhat relieving to have a discussion with him while groaning once in a while during the massage.
I asked him whe
Hello Guys.
I know that I have been away from my posting blogs quite a lot. The reason why is that I have been studying, teaching Spanish and running a English conversation club at my work place.
Today, I just want drop down some lines and reflect on how to improve our pronunciation.
First of all, we have to be aware that this will take time and practice. At the beginning, many people are afraid to speak and make errors. At this stage my suggestion is that you have to speak, it doesn't matter if
