It has been a long time I didn't signed in here in EC. But as I am really fond of writing and as a member I can write here!

Well, it's been 1 year I started photography as my hobby. And if I'm skilled enough then no doubt I might become a photographer! So now I'm always roaming here and there with my partner "Camera" , I'm always taking snaps. So yesterday when i was busy with my hobby, suddenly I discovered something very weird. I was just taking some snaps of a dog. It was someone's pet dog, I

People usually ask: Which do you prefer? The sea or the mountains? As for me – definitely the mountains. I am not a fan of „frying“ my body on the beach because to me it is boring. I prefer something more active, for example hiking. Since early childhood I spent my holidays in the mountains with my parents and I would say it influenced me a lot. I tend to the nature, I just love to escape from the rush of the city.

The mountains can give you a lot but sometimes they might be even unpredictable. T

Our attitude is what we are thinking every time. And people do believe what we think and say. if we underestimate us in front of others, they do believe what we say.

  "To become a Hero we always have to behave like a Hero "

Our attitude plays a big role in our mind problems. Its how our mind attitude dealing with our problems if they are really, the actual problems or our wrong mind set and attitude towards them that make a difference.

If we keep reading the old chapter we will never be able to re

E.g.

Yesterday, I was very tired and nervous and I wanted to go out, but I couldn't find my cellphone. I thought it was better to ring my cellphone and found it from the ringing sound. I dialed my number, a cellphone near the telephone began to ring, I took the cell and said: " hello", but no one answered.
Again I dialed my number and that cellphone was ringing again and no answer came. This happened for me five times. I was very angry and asked myself why this bothering person didn't talk, I shouted

I would like to share one old tradition we still keep and even though today it is Labour day there is something more we celebrate.

Today, since it is May 1st we celebrate here in the Czech republic the DAY OF LOVE.

You can call it the second Valentine but I would kill you if you dared to mix it up :-D

I love this tradition from many reasons. Firstly – I think love and the month May go together. The Earth is ruled by the planet Venus – named after godess of love. Secondly - if you look around you, y

How is it going, guys?

In the last post, I wrote that we should learn 7 words a day.
But how many times do we need to see/learn a word to remember and retrieve it later?
As far as I'm concerned, that number roughly ranges from 12 to 14 times :)

Too many times you may say. But who says learning languages is easy ;)
We keep learning and forgeting and learning and forgetting...until it becomes a part of us [cheers]

And the point is we never give up :D

Ok? :)

Now, hit it !! \m/

Today, we will contin

Hello everyone! My name is Nini and I am from Georgia. Sometimes people could not understand where is my country, they think that I live in a state of the USA. That's not right, Georgia is a country. It is a neighbour of Russia, Turkey, Azerbaijan and Armenia. My hometown is Batumi which is located by the sea. We have many tourists in summer in Batumi, they are from all over the world. I meet many American and English people here and I decided to learn English. I started going an English class b

Dear Captain,

I suddenly notice that I am becoming mushy. Thus I am determined to make some changes. I stop reading emotional essays and novels nowadays.

But I think I want to make a formal farewell with the past. Yet it's a pity, my memories about the past have been nibbled away day by day. As a matter of fact, I don't remember many things now. Should I say I am released from the cumbersome memories of the past and start a brand new life? I am neither sad nor happy. It's my life, it's like this.

I was watching a shark movie and it took me quite a while to find out the mystery behind the technique of their hunting , let me share that with you 

Two great white sharks were swimming in the ocean. They saw the survivors of a sunken ship,

" Follow me, son " father shark said, 

and they swam to the people.

" First we swim around them a few times with just the tip of our fins showing " and they did.

" Well done son ! now we swim around them a few more times with all of our fins and teeth showing" an

My favorite English teacher once said that it would be effective the most if we learn 7 words per day. He said that scientists call this the magic number. An article published by Cambridge also says the same thing.
So, here we go!

Each day, I will post here 7 new words or useful phrases through examples (from books, articles or dictionary) . I think persistence is the key to master anything in life. Let's make this become the new habit :)

The topic for today is Crime and The Law. Let's read the t
