The Capital City At Night

 

 

As soon as I arrived in Iran, I was eager to see the capital city, Tehran. I wanted to see how it has changed. So many roads and highways are built that I barely remember how the streets looked like in the first place. I also went to see one of the National Parks, Chitgar, on the west side of Tehran. It was at 10 o'clock at night and a little bit cool. Despite the fact that it was very late, the park was really crowded. People were playing vollyball.

 

Then, I ate one of the very famous Iranian

Hi,

My dear friends,

 

I came back to my home country, Iran for vacation. I wanted to blog every day. However, the internet connection in my place is not so good and every hour, it gets disconnected. I took so many pictures and videos for you to show you how Iran is. Some people think Persians are Arabs and speak Arabic or they get confused when you say Iran. They usually think Iran and Iraq are the same.

 

First days of my arrival, I just tried to be adapted with new time. I took some pills. Fortun

Time for reflection

This week in my country, the Philippines and the other catholic countries in the world, are celebrating the Lenten season. This would be a perfect time to reflect on Christ's death and resurrection. A time to reflect on the things or mistakes we did in the past. Be it a lot of heartaches, sadness, pity, sorrow, joy, and celebration. A time to look back and compare ourselves if improve the way we think, act and speak.

To ask ourselves the following questions.

Have we learned from our mistakes?

After I graduated from university, I started to get a job. Fortunately, my sister had been working in Microfinance Project implemented by Pact at that time. During my holidays, I used to help my sister to complete her works in time. So, I’m familiar with the project’s activities. I thought that Microfinace isn’t a good one for poor people although I was in my dream to help people. I confused with the works of the Project. Although they are telling that we are helping poor households, they charge

Missing the Swan

I just now noticed that Bianca is not around here in EC anymore.  Suddenly, her comment on my blog is gone. Nadira had mentioned earlier that some guys were bothering Bianca in the chat room few days ago.  I'm not exactly sure what that meant...it could be the reason why she left.  All I know is that everyone is starting to notice her absence.

 

To be frank, I have not been especially friendly with Bia in the beginning.  I've had grudges against her in the past for kicking a friend of mine out of

There are many people around the world who use internet. They are human and as a result of human being, they have different believe in using internet. We can separate people “using internet” into three categories such as users, advanced users and Professional (Technicians). In here, we neglect people which use internet for business purpose because they are only for the business. Then, I have to ask you a question who are you? I mean are you a normal user or advanced user or professional? Most of

As many of you know, I am currently in the UK. Did you know that this is my first trip to Europe? Many of the English teachers here are shocked to hear this news. When I ask, "Have you been to Canada?" they usually shake their heads.

Would you also be surprised to know that I'm learning English while I'm here? British English is "brilliant". I love listening to the British accents.

Here are some British English words I've learned since I arrived (defined in Canadian English):
