Well, I believe that it’s already been a long time since I posted a non-poem blog. This time, I’d like to tell you a story, a story about two angels who inspire me so much.
And…the story begins…
A few months ago, I joined a programme called Kuliah Kerja Profesi Guru or The Practice of Teacher Profession (the main reason why I left My EC for a few months was this programme). It is a compulsory subject to take, because without joining the program, the undergraduates will never be the graduates. Thi
Hello all dear EnglishClub members,
This is my first blog. I would like to introduce myself in my this first blog. My name is Lakhan from India. I'm a student of software engineering. My hobby is making new friends. I want to be software developer in my life.
My English is very week because I was a student of hindi medium. It's very necessary for me to speak English because in my study everything is in English. So I want to improve my English. I hope I'll get good knowledge about English from Eng
Thanks Tara for inviting members here to participate at another interesting challenge, compare and contrast. Finally, I chose two pictures of mine.They look similar but different.
Here is my contribution. The first is my second letter, I recieved it in 2011, and the second is my first letter recieved on March 22nd, 2010. Both were my letters from my lovely friend, Atika from Algeria.
The questions :
1. what's similar about these pictures?
2. what's different about these pi
This challenge was inspired by English language teacher Dave Dodgson.I'll tell you the truth in a week or so.
Useful language:
"Tara, the first one can't be true..."
"I don't believe that you..."
"Number _ sounds like a true/made up story."
"I doubt that you..."
"You're pulling our leg about getting/having..."
"I think you made up ..."
I collected the most suitable and compact links among them to template for us.
I still read them time to time !

1) Open a new blog post.

Cause you are here with me
Do you know how long I have been misled?
Keep walking through the night without any light
Get lost and alone in the peculiar dream
Get adrift in the sea of doubt
Then, you light up the lighthouse on your island
I feel the helping hands holding me
You know, my lady, those hands are yours
You wake me up from my never ending restlessness
You teach how to be a better man
You teach me how to love everything I own
You teach me how to treasure this life
You sh
"I would like to introduce to you a nice, but dangerous tourist site in my area: it's called Adiyanpara. It's a waterfall. Around that area you have to walk carefully as the rocks there are very slippery there. It is about 15 km away from the town. I can never forget this place in my whole life because once I fought for my life in this waterfall. At that time I had college-holidays. We planned to visit the waterfalls. There are many big and small waterfalls at that place. Nature created a kind o
I think I will write about myself - that's a good idea because I can write a lot about my life. I was born in Kerala, in South India, which is close/near to your native country. My village's name is Nilambur. It's a very famous place. It's a nice forest area, full of teak trees. The world's biggest teak tree is situated here in my place. I am the eldest son in my family. My father's family was a big family. He has 6 brothers and 2 sisters. They all lived together in one house/under the same roo
Hello everyone.
I think there's a moment in your life when you question your beliefs and policies. When you question who you are, what you are and many others things.
In my case, I am a Catholic man. I think it is a personal decision but of course my family has influenced me on that. All my family is Catholic, I was risen by my grandparents and they go to mass every single Sunday, they pray every single day and they are very good people. So, I follow their example; however, when I was a teenage
On weekends I usually go to this place... it's a forest near at home... I feel free there and sometimes I find the peace and tranquility that I couldn't find inside me ...
My journey...
There is a running track of 880 mts, but firstly I walk to the top of this forest I finish running here... 3 turns at least not more than 6 ... its hard :S
the longest road it's the best... ;)
A sight to the sky...
A breath...I like the odor of Eucalyptus' trees...
After 15 minutes we have arrived to.... My sanctu

When you are in love, you lost your mind because it flies wher the other person is. When you are in love, you just think of that person, you just live for him/her, you just want to have fun with them and love them.
Today, I sing, "Every breath you take" by the police. I love this song because it express how a man can love a woman, how a man can give away his life for the love of his life. I would like to love someone that deep, give away everything for that person.
I want to love someone with
Hi everyone, as you know I work as a teacher and this is a profession that no many people value as it should be. Today, I have a concern and it is about how parents are managing the relationship with their Children. I am twenty-five years old and my mom and dad have been there always. They have been there for supporting me , for advicing me. If they have to ground me, they do it, it I was sad, they would console me, if my marks at school were great they congratulated me and if I failed they made
