This week I came across an interesting section on the Scholastic website about celebrity Bookprints. Scholastic defines a "Bookprint" as "a list of five books that leave an indelible mark on our lives, shaping who we are and who we become". 

Do you agree with Scholastic that "You are what you read"? I do. I also believe that books sometimes choose their readers. 

This month I want to know which books have helped shaped you. We don't have to be celebrities for our bookprints to be interesting! Let'

Goodbye Friends in Saudi Arabia

My wife and I are moving to a different part of the world to teach.

We will be teaching engineers Advanced Business English, Academic English and Technical English in Japan.

Our home in Japan will have much lower temperatures than Saudi Arabia.  It gets 4.78 meters of snow fall in an average winter.

We will live in the city of Aizu-wakamatsu. This is a very old city in the Fukushima Prefecture. I am including some photos from the Wikipedia Commons, such as 2346622681?profile=originalthe famous Tsuruga-jyo Castle.

Farewell

i am very like Japanese song. especially original soundtrack from anime. Recently i like a song tittled "toumei datta sekai", here the translation in English, wish you like and enjoy it.

 What was it that I truly lost that day?
I forgot a long time ago

In the twilight, the two of us started to become unnoticable, little by little
Nevertheless, we wouldn't return home

Somewhere is my seemingly broken and fragile heart
Covered and hidden, covered and hidden by words under the pretence of being strong

What to do not to be the second?

Or what we can do to be the first one? It could have happened for you all to experience the feeling of being second person.
First you should be not shy .being shy is a bad feature can make you out of the game
Second is being smart. Having felt your rival, you must design a better plan that you suppose he wants to do. Therefore you must know your rival as the back of your hand.
The third is being sure he hasn’t done anything yet, and then you apply yours.
The forth depends on conditions and circu

HOW TO SURVIVE A HEART ATTACK WHEN YOU ARE ALONE?? Since many people are alone when they suffer a heart attack, without help,the person whose heart is beating improperly and who begins to feel faint, has only about 10 seconds left before losing consciousness. However,these victims can help themselves by coughing repeatedly and very vigorously. A deep breath should be taken before each cough, and the cough must be deep and prolonged, as when producing sputum from deep inside the chest. A breath a

My Answer

No one ever said life was easy, you know?
God made it tough because it's all part of his test
How will you solve it? with art? science? ethics?
That's what life is all about- you got to take it seriously

We worry, we wonder, we second guess ourselves
There's not one right answer, so keep pushing
forward and look for yours

I ask the sky and sea, do you wonder like me too?
I ask the wind and sun, do you cry without anyone noticing too?
There is nothing to be afraid of.  It's just another battle, we fight!!

  Hi readers, this time I will share with you some reasons for keeping going a hard task, mainly for who is beginning in the language journey: Writing in the studying language. I confess it's not so simple as many persons can imagine. But, true is, it's simple miraculous way of memorising, fixing in your mind what you've learned until now. So, follow my remarks about this important part of learning.

  In first place I'd say we speak in the same way we write. Just assume that when you're writing s

Being honest is hard.

I think honesty, being candor, is one of the greatest quality a person can have. Being honest not only in what we say but also in what we do.I mean, sometimes we pretend to like someone, because we get benefit from them, because we work for them, or to get promotion. We are in a position where we have to like them because we need them. Or, maybe we act, or being such a hypocrite, pretending to be good, when actually we are not that kind of person.Sometimes, dishonesty comes because we don't care
