Topic 1: THE NOBEL PRIZE

Hi all,

I'm very new to EC and the main reason I decided to join this community is to improve my English, of course.

I'm usually very shy and I'm an introvert at heart. Thus, starting a blog and public my writing is not easy for me. I'd like to thank Mr. Bob for giving me the courage to write, even though my writing is not perfect. With  your help in this community, I'm sure that I can improve my writing in no time. I will definitely return the favour if you ever need someone to proof read your

Women have served all these centuries as looking glasses possessing the power of reflecting the figure of man at twice its natural size.

_First love_

Leonard was a good teenager, he had everything in his life, and many girls in his school loved him. He is a kind boy, everybody knows about it. But sometimes he can be an arrogant boy.

Cooking vs Writing

    There are so many activities, we try to engage ourselves in, to spend our leisure time. One of the greatest activities, I have explored, is writing,which not only keeps our mind healthy, but also brings about educational growth, which plays a vital role in career building process.

    Whereas, some people prefer cooking to any other activities, to keep themselves busy in their free time. I had no idea that cooking is also a very creative job and great art unless I, myself, experienced it. B

Failure Pricks

  Through my life experience,I have touched that the passage of day and night or time is capable of healing the horrible impact of so many terrible events encountering us like losing a dear  or fortune or suffering diseases...ect_ but never failure.Collecting my strength, faking satisfaction and thinking that it  would be forgotten  ,I went on to resume my life .But from time to time the old ghost comes from the deep past to disturb my present. I avoid seeing my victorious rivals as I see it moc

Music versus videos

Music versus videos

Today in the morning I suffered from the big cultural shock!! I watched Lady Gaga's latest video clip and didn't believe my eyes! Maybe I am too old, puritan, maybe I was raised in the different way but seriously to watch a video where singer prefers showing their half-naked body and music is there just something like coulisse, it didn't impress me at all. Honestly it made me feel disgusted and I really despise "artists" like this.

Lately I found out that such videoclips are al

Hello Everyone,

This is my participation in Garima's writing challenge, find below the beginning of the story by Garima.

Carrie Allen took a deep breath and sat down on the couch in the drawing room next to Brad, twin brother. She knew their father going to give them a bad news. She glanced at Brad who shook his head. He appeared just as shocked as she was that their father had called them into the room. Their father sat in the chair across from them with a serious look in his face.She didn't want

How to crack the egg right

The title of this blog may give you the thought that I'm a professional in cooking. Unfortunately, it's totally opposite. I hate cooking and definitely I am a bad cook. Sadly, I still have to cook sometimes, for myself or for my parents. And with eggs I can quickly cook some simple dishes. In another word, dishes cooked from eggs are my favourite recipes because they are not complex.

However, I always have problem in cracking open the eggs. The shell of the eggs often shatter into lots of pieces

Writing Prompt: House Vs. Home

Writing Prompt ~ House Vs. Home

Dear Jono,

I want to tell you that I just rented a medium house in the surrounds of Paris, capital of France. At first, it seems to be a comfortable house to live, because the street is quiet and green and has few high buildings, the neighbourhood seems likeable and the house is just painted and has  brand new pieces of furniture. Moreover, I brought my little cat Paavo to liven my home up when I feel it is too silent over here. You know, I like to arrange cheerful

Something about SARCASM

In EC chatroom, I see many members with great sense of humor and sometimes sense of sarcasm. Today, something comes to my mind so that I feel want to know more about sarcasm. After a short tour around Goolge, I’m surprised with many articles about Sarcasm and  its important role in our modern life.

 Sarcasm involves a composer saying something that is the opposite of what they really mean.

For example:

I never forget a face, but in your case I'll be glad to make an exception.

If you find it hard

This is a gift for me from a friend of mine, and with her permission I am blogging it for my friends here to read:

I do love you.............for no reason
 
Yes still I remember you
And how come a loving killer forgets his beloved victim!
Yes I can't live without you…nor could I never live in you
But I'm the repenting killer…in your love I'm a pilgrim
Forgive me for all what I did do, for all what I dared to do
Forgive me for all what I didn't do, for all what I couldn’t do
Forgive me for what I could do

I've been busy

Over the last 18 months I've been studying for a MA degree and the work involved has kept my visits to the English Club to a minimum. 
I still haven't completed the degree, but I am very close to completion.
One day soon I will be able to write blogs more often and possibly even chat in the chat room.

Hello to all my friends; I hope you haven't forgotten about me!

"Colorful Expressions"

"Colorful Expressions"

It’s now black and white that she never loved me. She is gone forever leaving me in blue. I have been in black mood all the time thinking about her. Last time I have had an argument with her, but I was in grey area about what she was up to.

I was looking at her red face.  I would never be a green eyed monster, if she has fallen in love with somebody else.   There would be no one more tickled pink than me if she really likes someone else.  I will pass with flying colors becau
