Are You the Light or the Shadow

Are You the Light or
Are You the Shadow
Are You the Path
That leads tomorrow
Or the Trail that
Should never be followed
Are You the banquet of crimson red
Of which a new dawn heads
Or the purple-dyed paper roses
That whisks a sweet fragrant blade
Are You the Rainbow with a
Thousand promised hopes
Or the Stormy night who washes
That mountain’s slope
Are You the Sunshine
Or the Heaven’s rain
Are you the Gre
I was trying to write a blog to fulfill my promise to Anele about writing on the best way to stay healthy when suddenly Jihan jumped on my back and her hands choked my neck : “Where is my Dora?” she yelled.
“How should I know?” I replied.
“Where is my Doraaaaaaaaaa?” she sceamed again.
“I don nooooo.” I shouted.
Then I smelt something bad. “You fart?”
“No,” she said.
“You poop?”
“Nooooooooooo,” she denied but her eyes couldn’t tell a lie.
I stood up to take her to the washroom, but she ran away like
Today I am handing my blog over to a long-term member of MyEC. This guest post is for #ELTChat's May Blog Challenge. #ELTChat is a twitter group for English language teachers. Once in a while, we challenge each other to blog on a specific topic. This month, I presented the blog challenge: My Learning English Journey: Invite a Learner to your Blog. I was inspired by Beyza, a teacher in Turkey who had invited a student to write a guest post on her blog. When I thought about who I would invite to m
Life is full of heartbreak and pain.
The misery of loss and the joy of gain.
Unaware of the darkness that fell.
A beautiful Angel with her final farewell.

It's said that this city is the soul of Yemen and the source of inspiration for all the Yemenis and the talented nations all over the arabic civilizations throughout the history.

It’s terrible. Yesterday, my wife gave me some “love letters” which came from “an imp” to sent for my daughter. Reading some his feeling’s sentences then I could not stop angry. “I miss you, You are so cute. You look very beautiful in that dress….” Oh my God. I could not believe my eyes, I used some hard words for shouting with my daughter. She cried and replied me (I can’t stand her tears) : “Dad, He and I are just a friend, Anyway, I’m 12 years old. I can make some friends, Dad”
I think it's very important for one's health to keep a good balance between work and play.
The last couple of weeks for me have been extremely busy, but, funnily enough, it's been pleasurable, leisure activity that has taken all my time. I don't remember reading anything about keeping a healthy Leisure - Leisure balance.
Some activities require planning, some require rehearsals and all require organising one's life around. So to enable a relaxing time I've had to work hard in advance to make sure
Some people like to collect stamps. I like collecting quotes! Some give me insight and some make me relaxed and remind me of having fun and being free. I thought maybe this benefits my friends as it did to me.
Here are some of them:

The TITIANIC in 3D was shown in China at April 10.
At first,I didn't interested in it. But in one afternoon, the song'my heart will go on' was played on air in our school. Alough it is an old song, I found it's really great. At that night, I found out the opern of the song and played it on piano.I enjoyed it very much.
Then, I browsed the forum of TITANIC. I was amased about the TITANIC in 3D will come to China in April 10 and I really wanted to watch it.
But one of the most important tests-the ha
So I got up, walked slowly to my desk, turned computer on, ran firefox, and bam! I saw something strange there. What was that? It was like something good had happened, but I could not figure it out, I just felt it, and after a few seconds... whoa! I was accepted! I was accepted! Yeah, finally I became a member of this club. My dream came true, lol.
Well, I used to learn English alone and I thought it would be going well, but I was wrong. I got fustrated and then changed my mind to find some teach
Diseases are all over around and inside our body. Bacteria, viruses, pollen grains, fungal spores, wind, toxic materials, metabolic wastes are only a few of the examples. We cannot escape from their attacks unless we have something to protect us. Fortunately God has provided us with a system that guard against such hazardous objects.
In it we have bone marrow that contains stem cells which are capable of becoming any other type of cells including antibodies. The system can also supply nutrients a
Today, when I woke up, I suddenly realized that this is the best day of my life ever!
There were times when I wondered if I would make it today; but I did! And because I did
I'm going to celebrate!
Today, I'm going to celebrate what an unbelievable life
I've have had so far: the accomplishments, the many blessings,
and, yes, even the hardships because they have served to make me stronger.
I will go through this day with my head held high and a happy heart.
I will marvel at God's seemingly simple gifts
Uh huh, life's like this

'Cause life's like this
Uh huh, uh huh that's the way it is. Now, the real one :)

Hello everyone, in this learning English resource I would like to recommend some of practical websites and videos online. Okay, let's start from Daily English Dictation, which is the one I learned from our EC newsletter, is a program on YouTube based on American accent. On each section, it gives one or two simple or difficult sentences from news, movies or everywhere, and then you would have four times of pause to write down what you hear for dictation. Then, the correct answer would be given

* 17 years ago: It was beautiful day of my life when I received the first rose from my neighbor. He did not bring any cake, no present, no sign of party, no sweet romantic words…only one rose and warm eyes. Actually, He feared my parents....hahaha…Poor him, if that day he said something…hihihi…I don’t know how did my life go?

“People like to label somebody else without aware on the effect that might be happen the person or the victim that they labeled with”
“JuGul!!!!!!!!”, My teacher and my classmates have been labeling me with that word when I was in High School. It was the shortening of my name, JUmaida GULtom. One of my teachers created and awarded that name-calling to me. Even it was only the creative shortened of my name; I didn’t like being called “Jugul” at all because it has a bad meaning in Bataknese langua
Sarah is in the office of DSWD, a government agency for social works and welfare. Last night, she happened to watch news about the government's internship program. It has been lunched to help the in-school students who wanted to have a summer job, those out-of-school youth, as well as those people who wanted to have an experience that they could bring about in their resume for the next job hunting. Well, Sarah's reasons lie on the former and the latter; a summer job plus experience. Besides, it
