I don't crave fame

I crave myself

I want to be myself

not someone's image

I want my freedom

and not be bound by any expectation

It would be nice

If the next time someone visits,

and leaves a smile...

I'm more than welcome to know him/her...

And to those who already know me

Thanks for the memories

It helps me grow up

Whatever you think,

I'm wishing the best for you

Be confident! Be yourself! Okay!! Believe in your potential! 

Smile, and be happy!

Get ready too. Don't be nervous please! What comes will come!

This is another famous fable among children. It is a story about the crow and the peacock. 

The Story of a Crow and a Peacock

Once upon a time, in the deep jungle, a crow and a peacock were the very best of friends. During that time, both of them were just plain white birds. They will scavenge for their food together, play together, and even build their nests next to each other.

One day, while both of them were looking for food near the border of a village, the Crow suddenly stumbled upon a bucket

Hello friends!

It's been quite a long while since I haven't had written a blog on MyEC. When I was preparing for my exam a few weeks ago, I had lots of ideas to blog. However, the moment I logged into MyEC after my exam, all seemed to vanish into thin air ! Naturally, I was looking for something to write about because I had come back to MyEC and also because I had only a little time to stay here, for I had to prepare for another exam.

Today, while browsing through the net, I came across birth flow

Dear Captain,

Time flies! I am going to graduate in next July. This may be my last winter holiday.

Captain, you said you would come back when I finish my study. Do you still remember your promise? You said I could choose a tough sea life with you or an easeful city life with mom. I can't wait to tell you my answer——I want to be a sea girl. And I am sure I can persuade mom to allow me pursue my goal. What's more, mom trusts you.

The Spring Festival is coming. Yesterday it snowed. Mom and I both don'

In the model life when people are always busy with their works, schools, lifestyles and other things which cannot be named exactly, the handiness is more necessary. For that reason, convenient stores and supermarkets are increasingly appearing in almost big cities and gradually replacing traditional markets. However, both market and supermarket has its own features.

First of all, on a beautiful day when you want to go out and talk with somebody, you can go to any markets where are always crowded

All dictionaries are not the same.  Some give you more help than others.   I looked at several dictionaries for three things: a learner’s dictionary, a voice which pronounces the word, and a sentence or phrase containing the word.  I found only one dictionary that has all three.  It is the Cambridge learner’s dictionary. Dictionary http://dictionary.cambridge.org/us/dictionary/learner-english/  They give the word in a sentence or phrase, but it’s hard to see because it is in light gray.  Try it

Dear Captain,

It was a busy month last month. Congrats on me, Captain. I passed the exams and got the tourist certificate. Yeah, I am excited now.

I like staying at home, but I also dream to travel around to other new places. Alas, how I hope myself not timid and dependent! But to get out of my comfort zone and change is so hard. Yet, I am taking the babysteps to change.

It was a happy day. To celebrate my success, Fay and I went to Karaoke. On the way back to our campus, I noticed a new shop near

Interviewer said "I shall either ask you ten easy questions or one really difficult question. Think well before you make up your mind!"

The boy thought for a while and said, "my choice is one really difficult question." "Well, good luck to you, you have made your own choice! Now tell me this.

"What comes first, Day or Night?"

The boy was jolted into reality as his admission depends on the correctness of his answer, but he thought for a while and said, "It's the DAY sir!"

I was reading an article about how Prince Harry visited Angola and how he was sad that after 25 years there are still a lot of landmines left scattered in Angola. He was irritated that the Companies that supplied those landmines in the first place did not do enough to help clearing them.

Reading this article made me read more on the work done by the HALO Trust. The HALO Trust had work tirelessly and endlessly in destroying various landmines in many countries devastated by wars. These countries fa
