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
Uh huh, uh huh, that's the way it is....

wait... this is not the way it is. She is not

what I'm thinking. Repeat!

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

I dreamt to copy her voice, her doing and her style in dressing up when I was at my 20's. But as you can see it is not possible. No..I can't be like her even to copy cat hehehe. Huge fan of her will get angry at me. Yeah, you got it. I'm talking about Canadian singer-songwriter Avri

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

      Maybe You are curious. Oh, don’t read the end of this blog. I need you to read from the top to the end and guess what is today?

     * 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

What is democracy?

Nothing I must do
Nowhere I should be
No one in my life
To answer to but me

No more candlelight
No more purple skies
No one to be near
As my heart slowly dies

If I could hold you one more time
like in the days when you where mine
I'd look at you 'till I was blind
So you would stay

I'd say a prayer each time you'd smile
Cradle the moments like a child
I'd stop the world if only I
Could hold you one more time

(hmmmmmm)

I've memorized your face
I know your touch by heart
Still lo

No no don't worry I'm not going to pull out your teeth. I know, that sound awful.  Yesterday, accidentally I saw a horrible article on the internet (Daily mail) about the female dentists who pulled out all her ex-boyfriend’s teeth (he dumped her for another woman). When he came at her surgery with toothache just days after breaking up with her, she gave him a heavy dose of anaesthetic and plucked his teeth out. Now that dentist is facing jail. After that incident, unfortunately his new girl frie

       I went to Mosburger for a cup of coffee yesterday. When the clerk gave me the coffee, I tried to look into her eyes and said "thank you" to her sincerely. Surprisingly, I suddenly realized I never REALLY thank anyone who serviced me before. I do little for the whole world, but I count on others so much to survive on Earth.

Discussing English weather in England is almost a pastime. It is a discussion that many people have and sometimes many times a day. It's a subject close to everyone's heart.

You can talk about the weather whilst waiting for a bus or train with fellow travellers, with the shop keeper, on the telephone with anyone at all. People on planes either going or returning from holiday will talk about the weather - what it will be like at their destination, how high the temperature will be, how they are goi

Do you have a mole (birthmark) on your face? :D :D Confused ?? Don't worry, just kidding. Do you know? With my birth,I got a little birthmark on my face, but I didn't worry about that until I grow up.  One day , I saw an article which wrote about celebrities (stars) Some of them became stars because of their mole, and I noticed most of them have even one mole on their faces. At once, I remembered my birthmark which on my face so at that time, I thought, one day I would be a star because I have a

In my career I had good presentations, when I was praised for my oratorical skills, and...less good ones, when I was asked what happened with me. When I look back, I cannot say what determines a presentation to be good.  Is it the fact that you have a good day? That you are self confident? That you are well prepared? In my opinion, you definitely need all of these, still... there are people who reach to make very good presentations without having all of the attributes above; they are good actor

Blood flows in the Earth

His heart has been hurt

Sky, the only witness

Tears are falling from the sky

Nobody listens to his voice

It’s as high that can’t be heard

Madness, hatred weaken him

Tears are falling from the sky

Love and confidence are fading

His wounds are larger

He can’t stand it anymore

His screaming is like thunders

Human doesn't see his wounds

People don’t stop his crying

They won’t see a rainbow in the sky.

I liked many aspects of Egypt, but not everything.

I was fortunate to travel around Egypt last year. The weather was still pleasant yet cooling down and I travelled by plane, train, mini-bus, coach, felucca and camel; I travelled alone but met and made many friends there.

I began my journey by flying to Sharm el Sheikh on the Red Sea, a beautiful, quiet bay called Nabq. September there was amazing.  I spent two weeks in Cairo and a long time in Luxor, I journeyed to Abydos with a group of ex-pats
