Many years back when I was a student I asked my teacher why do we need to study Literature at all?

He was so desperate that he was be

Everyday, I'm woken up for breakfast by Dad. He is my beloved one. But today, he doesn't feel well. And i'm so scared...Cook him some soup, and buy him medicine. That's all I can do. Just sitting here, and thinking about what Dad has done for me so far, I realize that it's time for me to grow up and take care of Dad. The pains he got from the War still alive, painful... Am I losing him as time goes by?

Not so long ago, flowers were used to send messages for someone. A kind of language widely practiced by many to express their sincerest feeling for some situations that were thought by some people to be a little awkward when expressed in words but, rather more romantic by using the language of flowers.
I find the concept quite interesting and thought of sharing this with you. I hope you'd be entertained as you browse through the list below.

I love reading! One of my favourite stories as a child was Anne of Green Gables. This book was written for both children and adults to enjoy. In my opinion, these classics are the best types of books for adult English learners.
Anne of Green Gables is set in Canada (my country). Have you heard of Anne? She is a dramatic red-haired orphan who moves to a farm in Prince Edward Island. P.E.I. is a tiny province on the east coast of Canada.The classic itself is a bit difficult to read. It was first p

I can call myself a great lover of cinema, and, naturally, I've seen a lot of good and not very good films...Now, I'd like to tell you about one of my favourite films "American Beauty"(1999)directed by Sam Mendes and written by Alan Ball. Kevin Spacey stars as a main character Lester Burnham. The film was nominated for and won many awards and honors.Why do I love this film? First of all, for a significant social and moral message that is being conveyed by a film. I'm not going to retell the plot
