OW this is the next tale, and it tells how the Camel got his big hump.

In the beginning of years, when the world was so new and all, and the Animals were just beginning to work for Man, there was a Camel, and he lived in the middle of a Howling Desert because he did not want to work; and besides, he was a Howler himself. So he ate sticks and thorns and tamarisks and milkweed and prickles, most 'scruciating idle; and when anybody spoke to him he said 'Humph!' Just 'Humph!' and no more.

How Can I ...?

How can I love you?There are many, many ways.But when I try to do so,You just simply say, ‘’go away’’.How can I kiss you,If you always turn your face?It moves faster than my lips,I wonder if I could ever win that race.How can I hug you,If from me you always try to escape?Please, let me put my arms around you,And be part of your body’s landscape.How can I whisper nice words to your ears?How can I sing love songs to you?When I do so, your ears you close,But when others do so, you listen to those.H

水调歌头苏轼  明月几时有,把酒问青天。不知天上宫阙,今夕是何年。我欲乘风归去,又恐琼楼玉宇,高处不胜寒。起舞弄清影,何似在人间。  转朱阁,低绮户,照无眠。不应有恨,何事长向别时圆?人有悲欢离合,月有阴晴圆缺,此事古难全。但愿人长久,千里共婵娟。Thinking Of YouBy Su Shi"When did you bright moon appear?" Loudly I ask as I raise wine bowl toward the sky.I wonder which year it is in the palace of the moon tonight.I really want to go there with the breeze,but worry that it's cold and unbearable in cloud-kissing luna edifice.In the moonlight Dancing with the shadow,how elegant it is! how could it be comparable to the hu

Born in the year of the Cat

My sign is the Cat. I actually liked cats. When I was a child I preferred cats to dogs. Cats and kittens were always so cute that I tried to caress them or put them in my lap against all warnings of possible diseases by seniors when I was alone with them. Fortunately, I have never contracted any illnesses from these pets.Later on , It struck me to a daze when the first time I had learned that the cycle of Chinese zodiac does not have the sign of the Cat; instead the Rabbit is what the origin of

Then head bowed,immersed in missing homeland

It was a boring afternoon when, I decided to watch TV. I browsed the channels and landed to an afternoon movie. The movie was about the young boy, Tama, who was swept in to the remote island. The set up was pretty uninteresting for me; but then I gave a try to watch the film. The movie was "The Legend of Johnny Lingo".The young boy was adopted by the chief of an island, and took him as his son; but then, the people are superstitious. They are saying that, the boy has cursed, because of the red b

Ok, readers, I'd like to put something forward!

You may have probably noticed that I've been trying to use more idioms in my writing (blogs, comments,etc) recently. You may make nothing of it or some idioms may mean nothing to you. But I'd like to put it plainly that I go along with you here: There is no point in using too many idioms in a paragraph. Sorry if I'm driving you up the wall or if I put my foot in my mouth.

But when it comes to learning English, what I just said may make sense. Maybe y
