Did You Know? - It's All Greek

When I wrote my blog "Did You Know? - It's The Greek's Flavour", I found out that there were many more English words originated from the Greek mythology. Therefore, I want to share a few more of those words.

Did You Know? :-

1. Morphine

I AM HAPPY SHE FORGOT ME

I AM HAPPY SHE FORGOT ME

This is a truth, believe me, I am happy she forgot me. 
Love is dead now, I am happy she forgot me. 
My glooming, my sadness is just because of the changing of weather. 
Don't ask how I am, I am just happy to know that she forgot me. 
Don't alert on my disposition, don't look into my eyes, 
Don't see me with surprise, I am happy that she forgot me. 
Why are you afraid, why don't you come to me 
O fairies of my sleep believe me, I am happy that she forgot me. 
Why do you come to m

The lost love


I headed for you
holding a gift
I saw many faces
but your face
I heard many tones
but your musical tones
I didn’t like faces neither voices
but yarning to hold you
I was very keen to hand you a phial
what a pity , there was no way
So ,I sprayed perfume in firmament of your place
hope the fragrance will find a way
to your nose
to remind you it was
your gift and he was yours
I left back home empty handed repeating;
Do not adore roving lovers
They are always about to leave .

Dear Captain,

I was in the Antarctic last night. Yeah, in my dream, hehehe. It was an amazing experience.

A polar bear and I was chatting the whole night. He told me all he had experienced since he was born in that white tranquil world with his family. Also, he made a big fish dinner for his first listener, your Nikita. Oh, I have to say, it's freaking cold even though I stayed in his "warm" snow hole. Therefore, the whole night, we were cooking each other's words since once they were out of our m

Hello Friends-

I was wondering if anyone out there knew anything specific about the laws/policies/guidelines that public school teachers take when teaching English language learners that have a special need or disability of some sort. I do not mean to be insensitive to any labels I may use; I am just unsure of how else to word my query. If you take offense, I apologize and ask for grace.

My main question is: if an English Language learner has a learning disability, which "direction" do we lead int

A beautiful wisdom

Wind said to the sun: What do you think if we bet to take the guy who is sitting in the garden his coat off? The sun agreed but provided that the wind begins this deal first.
The wind began to produce loud and frightening sounds and throw dust in the air, with much power and speed to remove the guy’s coat. The young man kept his coat with all his strength trying to resist against the strong wind that is around him, at this moment, the wind gives up.
The sun smiled, it shone quietly and nicely with

My Friend

You are a charming bird, my friend,

Chirruping in the morning glow,

Narrating tales till day would end.

Yet who you are I do not know.

I wish I could your feathers touch;

Your tuneful songs enchant my ear.

But you avoid my glances so much

And don't let me come too near.

I'll place my steps with perfect skill,

My restless mind would lead me on...

Alas, my efforts come to nil.

Incautious word - and you are gone...

Flashbacks

As soon as  I got rid of my outdoor's activities , My curiousness to the television started to grow , Not only that , But I also became addicted to my PC screen .

Some people would analyze spending much time on the computer as a waste of time claiming that Free times should be spent on life issues , Well, In my opinion , I would rather to drop my free time on the Internet than spend it hanging out on the streets for no benefits with my friends , Somehow I found a way to entertain myself by partic

Interesting Facts In Easy English: "Serendipity" Is Difficult To Translate

Discussion Question: What word in your language is difficult to trasnslate into English, and why?

  What first came to my mind when thinking about this question was the Portuguese word "saudade". Without a shadow of  doubt that word is the hardest word to translate into English. It is always mentioned when touching topics related to difficult words to translate into another language, mainly English.

Rule of Life !!!

There comes a point when you have to stop beating yourself up over mistakes that you made.

Which relates to my previous post ; I'm not trying to tell you to stop regretting because i know this is almost impossible, However regret it once and that's it, don't let regret win over the urge inside you to be better. We all have those mistakes that nobody knows about , Mistakes that if known we'd die out of shame .. But that's the point isn't it? I mean nothing can go perfectly perfect. Stop worrying t

The Magic Cave

I like to introduce to you a famous Malay fable which is called "Batu Belah Batu Bertangkup'. It can't be literary translated into English, but I would called it as "The Magic Cave".

Once upon a time, in a country far far away, there was a magic cave next to the forest. Even though it's a magical cave, the people was afraid of it. This was because the cave will open up when ever anyone whisper to it. However, if anyone entered the cave, that person will never be seen again.

According to the fable,
