   Some people say, “There is no such a word as equality, & this idea is ruining   the relationships between the two sexes, male & female.”  Other people say, “Equality is our right. In order to get social justice, we must get everything a man can get.” But you know what! Open your eyes and try to see what you think is right from a different perspective for once.

"May, may I have En. Hakim's phone number." She said to May. Finally, a few days later, Lina was brave enough to talk to Hakim. 

With a deep breath, Lina dialed the number. "Hello, may I speak to Hakim please." Lina realised her hands were clammy and she was gripping the phone very hard. 

"Hello! Lina is that you?" She could hear the smi

The virtual class had, regrettably, ended abruptly and you haven’t got the slightest clue till this very moment! I’m sorry for keeping you, our enthusiastic learners of speech sounds, in the dark! Believe it or not, I was having problem back then saving any newly created blogs as ‘Drafts’. Usually, for your info, each blog of a study session would ta

   Hi English clubbers, this week I decided to bring to my blog post something about IQ, and therefore I thought to answer: If we had double IQ , how would it be this experience? Based on some readings I did on the Web I'll adress this issue. So, let's start again! ;)

  Imagine If everybody had double IQ how would it be the behaviour that population of geniuses on the Earth?

  With more intelligence, we'd have more ability to learn fast and remember anything too. Thus, It c

There's no escape.
The big pricks are out.
They'll fuck everything in sight.
Watch your back.

Weather Forecast

Harold Pinter [March 2003]

The day will get off to a cloudy start.
It will be quite chilly
But as the day progresses
The sun will come out
And the afternoon will be dry and warm.

In the evening the moon will shine
And be quite bright.
There will be, it has to be said,
A brisk wind
But it will die out by midnight.
Nothing further will happen.

This is the last forecast.

Shakespeare said: I always feel happy, you know why? Because I don't expect anything from anyone; expectations always hurt.. Life is short.. So love your life.. Be happy.. Keep smiling.. and always remember: 
Before you speak... Listen.
Before you write... Think.
Before you spend... Earn.
Before you pray... Forgive.
Before you hurt... Feel.
Before you hate... Love.
Before you quit... Try.
Before you die... Live (c)

What will you do if you found out that all of your important yahoo mails had disappeared and cannot be retrieved anymore? :-(

I'm going to share with you guys the story on how I've learned English, and tell you which is the best way to learn/improve it as well, in my modest opinion. You guys can also share how you've learned the language in the comments below. xD

Anyway, to tell you guys how I learnt English, since this is a common question friends ask eventually, here is how it went:

When I was a teenager, my parents put me in a Private Language Institute, and I studied there for two years. I was always bored and annoye

Hello, friends!

Recently one of our EC  members,. Prostomolotova Galina, .posted a blog "Some practical steps to acquire good pronunciation".  In her  blog she  tells  how one  could  use the TTS (Text-To-Speech,)  option on 'AudioPal' to perfect his English speech. I'm glad to see that some of our EC members have heeded  her advice,  especially those in the EC Phonemes and Pronunciation  class,  and  reaping  their rewards.  Do  you  want  to be one of them? Well!  Le
