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

United-Kingdom-flag.pngI have always been fond of English. My first memories go far into my early school years when my Mom was assisting me to repeat vocabulary.
Well, what has helped me to approach my dream which implies good command of English? I decided both to analyse my experience (even for my own benefit) and to take the Challenge #25 at the same time.

One Ukrainian proverb says: "Any work has never been easy."  This many times prevented me from frustration. And also this helped me to outlast it, for effeciency ha

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):

IT'S A CRAZY LANGUAGE

We'll begin with a box, and the plural is boxes;
but the plural of ox became oxen not oxes.


One fowl is a goose, but two are called geese,
yet the plural of moose should never be meese


You may find a lone mouse or a nest full of mice;
yet the plural of house is houses, not hice.

If the plural of man is always called men,
why shouldn't the plural of pan be called pen?


If one is a tooth and a whole set are teeth,
why shouldn't the plural of booth be called beeth?

Then one may be th

God`s Mercy

Two days ago I encountered a scandalous, arrogant, stupid person.  She was actually my co - worker. I was having a chat with my other co - workers when she entered the room and asked me to give her the documents  needed by her son for college admission. She was in a commanding tone when she approached me. So,I told her I needed her son`s accomplished clearance form before I can release what she had asked for. Sadly, she didn`t have the clearance form and didn`t know where his son`s clearance. Bu
