In the first cold night of first day of December, sitting in my bed with legs inside blanket and laptop in my lap singing the melodies in media player, inspired from my EC sissy to write a meaningful blog I began to think about the topic of my first blog. Gazing on the chats prompting in EC main chat room i plunged in to the data base of my memories to search a interesting topic for myself to start writing.
Having few thoughts in my mind, I started to write few lines soon i found my self in dead
Yesterday I took part in an awesome, traditional event, which is related to Christmas. It was the first of four Sundays of Advent and it means we should have lit the first candle on the traditional Christmas wreaths. For better imagination have a look here:
Anyway back to an unforgottable, magical experience. A huge, coniferous tree was standing in the middle of the crowded square and was planned to be lit up exactly at 4:30pm. Yes, so early! However, here it is already dark at this time so I kno
Sri Lanka’s gem industry has a very long and colorful history. Sri Lanka was affectionately known as Ratna-Dweepa which means Gem Island. The name is a reflection of its natural wealth. Marco Polo wrote that the island had the best sapphires, topazes, amethysts, and other gems in the world. Ptolemy, the 2nd century astronomer recorded that beryl and sapphire were the mainstay of Sri Lanka’s gem industry. Records from sailors that visited the island states that they brought back “jewels of Sere d

Dear friend, we have Tropical rain forests in our country. We call them “tropical” because Sri Lanka is a country close to the equator. We call it “Rain forests” because we get a lot of rain from these forests.
This is a thick jungle. There are four layers of trees according to their heights. The tallest - big trees -tall trees-medium and small ground layer trees. There is a world famous rain forest “The Sinharaja rain forest” in my country. It was named as a world heritage in 1989 by UNESCO.

Hello pretty girl,
Let me ask you first, how are you in such a lovely winter morning? I think, you are passing a very busy time with your study. But, why you are not writing me, are your days hectic? Here, I am also too busy, of course, with my usual duty. Anyway, do you want to hear how did I pass the last two months?
Then listen, I went to a rocky mountain area with my close friends in last month. In a sunny-Autumn morning we started our journey. We didn't book any cottage or hotel but we were
Hey, what is your age, are you in your middle age? If you are, you have lots of things to do, right? That means you have little time for yourself. Because, you have lots of works and social pressure, lots of responsibilities, lots of tresses. But, I know, nowadays,young people also have a lot of pressure. Even, kids are under study pressure. So, what should we do? Okay, let me give you some tips though you know most of them!
1. After wake up, think positively, take some deep breath and give a smi
I used to watch the white haired old lady sitting on her rustic rocking chair with a vacant look on her face. Her weathered and wrinkled face looked so sad. Sometimes I noticed her gnarled hand would tremble ever so slightly. Other times, I noticed that she would grip the rocking chair as if her life depended on it. Once in a blue moon, she would break into a little smile. Her little chuckles were so rare, as rare as hen's teeth.
I wondered what her story was. I bet she had endured so much in he
It's the end of November. Winter has already announced its presence in the air. Blankets are now needed at night, and it's difficult to leave the warmth of the blanket in the morning.
My home is at the far corner of the city and my office is out of the city. After five or six minutes drive from my home towards my office, the road becomes narrow and bumpy. So it's difficult to sit up straight in the car. We bounce up and down on our seats. And everyday it feels like the bumpy road will never end.
Hello, everyone.
Today I was thinking about my past and about my childhood in particular. I remember so many things from that time and today I bought one. It was a tasty thing right from the age when I was 4-5 years old. And it caused the waterfall of my memories and I want you to show my past.
When I was in my kindergarden, it was the USSR time so not so many things were available there but at the same time we were dreaming to get all those stuff I'm going to show you. So, the time machine is r
Are you ready for one more writing challenge? I hope so.
You could always add one or more adjectives before or after every noun to enrich the sentence. You usually do so for a colourful sentence or a vivid description. Let's compare these two sentences:
-- A man in the village was sitting in a chair.
-- A white-haired old man in the peaceful village was sitting in a black wooden chair.
It can be so challenging to make such a sentence. Here are some tips for you:
1. You need to find the proper adjec
It starts rain season in Vietnam. It was rain from yesterday until today it is still raining. Although today is the weekend but I just stay at home to see the rain. Rain looks like dogs and cats. Some times if it keeps rain in many days, it can flood all the villages that are near river. I don't like this happen but I really love raining when I look at it through the window. As someone says that "I don't cry, just raindrop"
Today, I am going to share one of my experiences with you. Then I just completed my S.S.C examination. That day one of cousins came to our place so my brother and I had a great day. After passing a busy and joyful day I felt tired. So, I said goodnight a bit early and went to my room to set up the mosquito net. But, when I was tucking the net, suddenly a flying insect (looked like a grasshopper but small in size and color was light ash-black) caught my eye-sight. And, without thinking, I Hold it
Speaking from experience, letting go of something very important to you is definitively the hardest thing to do. Your heart and mind are sort of at war with each other and you sometimes just feel like giving it all up. This blog is based on my own experiences and what I had to go through before I convinced myself that it's time to let go and move on with my life.
Is it worth it?
Letting go of people you were once or still are madly in love with is a horrible thing to go through. Ask yourself a few
Message in a Bottle
My name is Scott, and I am marooned on an island. It has been torture, living here with only a knife for protection. It is an environment that is very alien to me, a man from the big city. The light from the sun is so bright it is a wonder that it doesn’t destroy my eyes. But what I find myself missing the most is a roll of toilet paper, so if you find this note, please bring some when you come and rescue me.
