I’m walking in the street, as I used to, years after years. A night filled with the lights of stars. Smell of winter in the air.  Yeah, season is changing. Season changes every year. And memories hunt me. I feel that some fine days, I have left behind. Those days will not come again, never, but will live in eternity’s sunshine.

My third story

It was like a funny video on youtube. But I recorded it by my eyes only. This is the 'script' of the 'video'.

Looking out of my window, I can see the main street with very heavy traffic. On the other side of the street there is a parking zone. Last Wednesday I saw a one-month-old kitten sitting between two parking cars. I couldn't hear what it said but I saw it miaowing. It was a very dangerous place for a baby cat near those cars, really. It was totally lost.

THINGS YOU CAN DO WHEN YOU'RE BORED AT HOME:

PICS WITH A STORY

I love my native city Budapest, which is very cosmopolitan involving tourists and citizens from all over the world. It is similar to ESL, you know. I have been going to the same shopkeeper for a long time because his shop sells cheeper and there is a great choice of goods. The customers call him as 'our Chinese shopkeeper' or 'Uncle Steve' although I don't think Steven would be his real first name.

One day just before Beijing Olympic games I went to him and asked, 'Do you think China will win the

This Blog on "Diwali" am writing for the comments of Mickey and Sima on "Happy Diwali" Blog....

Diwali is regarded as one of the most important festival of the Hindu calendar. It is celebrated across the nation with great pomp and excitement. The festival is mainly associated with lights as it is called the festival of light. On the day of the festival diyas (small clay lamps) are lit in everybody 's home irrespective of their social status. The name Diwali signifies 'rows of lighted lamps '. Diw

I had a nice message from Mahgol and like to share it with you all here:

I have a private student who indends to emigrate into Britain. She is 35 now and a tailor in Budapest, Hungary. Her English knowledge improves fast. One day I asked her to repeat one of the units. She said, 'I should repeat all my life'.

What kind of messages shall I send to the cyber space?

I have been taking part in ESL chat since 2005 and I have enjoyed its universal atmoshpere. So I'll write my favourite stories that can be taken into all over the world not considering asl, you know. They may be foolish or wise, give them some minutes, please.

To hate tears and sadness will not protect you from being sad and shedding lots of tears..

To keep smiling and spreading love will not immerse you in a happiness..

To fight against injustices and conquer will not provide you with your freedom or rights..

To say or write these words doesn't mean encouraging you to love tears, stop smiling or give up fighting against your rights... It's said to be aware ...

Life will not give you what you are asking for so hold your sadness and keep going on strongly.

Interesting Facts in Easy English: Bats Aren't Blind

Discussion Question: Only a small amount of people are bitten by bats each year, while thousands of people are bitten by dogs. Why are so many people terrified of bats?

  I think the responsible for such big fear  is undoubtedly the film industry. Even though, most of bittens are caused by dogs, the "bad reputation" of bats is  so ingrained among humans due to the strong anti-bat advertisements made by the film world along years.

  Most of us, co

  The Barcelona Arena and the bullfighting practice can even  be a Picasso painting in the fan's opinion, that is,  so important  cultural figures for the Spanish identity but the bullfighting certainly is not i

Perhaps I should send messages into the cyber space. But will I get any answers?

I'm not a person that frequently is writing things by passion, but I admit that the words have a great effect in the people.

When the people write novels, poems or other types of writing, they can attract the attention of the other people and they can transmit your feelings through your words. In that moments that persons can establish one relationship by the writing and they don't need stay together for establishing that relationship, because the words express of feeling of author of writing.

The Cafe

Retiring from the toiling day’s work I used to go to Café Grand. It is on Abdullah Haroon Road. If you go straight through Zaibunnisa Street in Saddar, you will find Café Grand just opposite to the back entrance of Hotel Metropole. From inside this restaurant is two storey, but second floor is sort of a gallery. The atmosphere of the Grand is one of the attractions for me to count it as the best. There was always been darkness in the café even in the day time. The lightning was so beauti
