ESL Blogs

I have been meaning to write something in here, but too many words and too many topics been flitting through my minds that I do not know where to start. Someone said to me to focus and start something. So here goes my first real attempt in writing. This blog is dedicated to my EC friends that aspired me to take this step.

Durian- the King of Fruits

Durian – either you hate it or you love it. There is no two ways about it. Durian is commonly found in South East Asian countries such as Malaysia, Ind

        Let me introduce myself. My name is Valentine. I lived in Rome during the third century. That was long, long ago! At that time, Rome was ruled by an emperor named Claudius. I didn't like Emperor Claudius, and I wasn't the only one! A lot of people shared my feelings.

Claudius wanted to have a big army. He expected men to volunteer to join. Many men just did not want to fight in wars. They did not want to leave their wives and families. As you might have guessed, no

Hello My EC..

I am an old member who keeps coming back to my second home no matter how long I was away.. Or a proditor in other words as Deuce has called us.

Being here again with so many friends missing or hibernating; stirred a feeling of nostalgia that made me decide to write this blog. Which reflects how I see My EC, what benefits I gained "still gaining" from it as well as sharing the sweet memories I had with my friends here..

I have joined in October 2010 at first I was lost like every new m

Hello  muddah, Hello fadduh

Here I am at Camp Grenada.

Camp is very entertaining,

And they say we’ll have some fun if it stops raining.

I went hiking with Joe Spivey

He developed poison ivy;

You remember Leonard Skinner?

He got ptomaine poisoning last night after dinner.

All the counselors hate the waiters

And the lake has alligators.

And the head-coach wants no sissies,

So he reads to us from something called Ulysses

Now I don’t want this should scare ya,

But my b

Have you ever felt a huge power or a huge depression inside you but you didn't know why or how have you got it? Do you feel that you like some people more than other or disaffect from other? Do the positive or negative emotions, feelings and circumstances build the positive or negative personalities? Have you ever asked yourself if you are positive or negative person? Do you feel that

         As you know, billions of Asians are celebrating the Lunar New Year (Some people call it "Chinese New Year" or "Spring Festival" in China). People in Korea or Vietnam or some other countries may celebrate it in different ways.  But, one thing's for sure, they all wish themselves or others a happy and lucky new year.

        I myself sent a lot of text messages on the New Year's Eve to wish all of them every happiness, a fortune, prosperity, success, health, a dream come true or something

History of St. Valentine's Day

Who is this mysterious saint and why do we celebrate this day?

According to one legend, Valentine was a priest during the third century in Rome. When Emperor Claudius II decided that single men made better soldiers than those with wives and families, he outlawed marriage for young men. Valentine was not happy and he continued to perform marriages for young lovers in secret. When Valentine's actions were discovered, Claudius ordered that he be put to death.

I'm not a poet . I'm not a writer , either . But I do want to write about my shining star, i do miss him a lot! I can't even find proper words to describe all these warm emotions and feelings  towards him.I dedicate this blog to him ...all these photos of stars are for him.

It is one of the most popular high level walk on the Madeira Islands. Pico Ruivo is 1,861 meters high and that makes it the highest peak on the Island. It provides some of the most incredible views of the island and a variety of flora and fauna. However, the weather condition is unpredictable. It is best to check the weather condition before climbing.

So it was planned, we were going to climb the highest peak on the Madeira Islands today. The weather was good and I was thrilled.

SIMPLE THINGS

I have a need of simple things,

The sun, the moon, all life begins

To start to live one gets to see

To love, the kind in poetry

Story About My Painting - What The Unexpected Things To Expect In Dubai

The Fence

There once was a little boy who had a bad temper. His father gave him a bag of nails and told him that every time he lost his temper, he must hammer a nail into the fence. The first day the boy had driven 37 nails into the fence. Over the next few weeks as he learned to control his anger, the number of nails hammered daily, gradually dwindled down. He discovered it was easier to hold his temper t
