This is official, MyEC will give awards for chatters. So, regular chatters, you are better to be ready for it!


I have been at My EC for more than a year now, and one of the many useful features at this club ,which always brings me back, is the chat room. I won't deny that there were times when chatting on the main room were not such a good experience. If you have been around for a long time, you must have read some blogs that discussed both good things and bad things which happens on main room.

Every year different generations of my 11th grade students finish school in May. During the last English lesson I  usually present them, as my parting words, the poem of Rudyard Kipling "If”. It has become an annual farewell tradition. And every year different generations of students to my great pleasure admire the poem. It means they understand moral values of our life.

I decided to share this poem with you, as every line of it can be considered as a quotation. Rudyard Kipling is a famous Englis

that is not really measurable.

But you are enjoying everything 

only for the time being.
