So, as I believe this post is important, I have decided to record it here and I hope you will understand my "so so" english. I guess that is not forbidden by google.
You may think that, maybe, I should have "rewritten" the post but, nowadays, I can't doing it due to a lack of concen

Do you like green tea with sugar ?

I read an article recently. The article said that famous Japanese canned green tea 「お~いお茶」 is popular in Silicon Valley in America. They seem to like 「お~いお茶」 because of its healthiness and flavor. And I read about a Japaneae woman who was interviewed  in this article. She said that she was glad to be able to drink 「お~いお茶」 in America because the other canned green teas are with sugar. She likes green tea but she can't drink green tea with sugar. I was surprised to read her interview. Americans dr

But fortunately, I remembered blogs!

They always work very well :)

 

So, please let me say the topic here:

Open-Eyes Dreams

We all have some dreams when we sleep.

But have you ever thought that we can have these dreams when we are awake too?

Imagine that these events which you see, when you are awake, are just like those dreams.

Then how would you describe them for others?

 

For example, let me describe mine.

 

I saw these things:

1-I opened EC to add a blog.

2-The words were arranged one after another.

3-EC chat room was in the corner.

4-I wrote "Hello" and sent it.

5-It didn't work again…

6-Desire and disappointment

To be truly happy, these two things are very helpful:

1-Expect less

I hear this question a lot both in real life from my students and virtually as people often ask this question in the My English Club Chat.  And the honest answer is:  You can't - not without reading.

This is official, MyEC will give awards for chatters. So, regular chatters, you are better to be ready for it!


I have been at My EC for more than a year now, and one of the many useful features at this club ,which always brings me back, is the chat room. I won't deny that there were times when chatting on the main room were not such a good experience. If you have been around for a long time, you must have read some blogs that discussed both good things and bad things which happens on main room.
