The stranger at the bus station

 

Every day, I must wait for the bus for about 20 minutes at the station. It's the time when I have to change bus lines on the way to my company where I work.

Always, when I saw him come to the bus station, I couldn't help staring at him. It was as if I had known him already for ages though we had never spoken any words to each other. 

 

He never noticed me even though I was always sitting on a bench opposite him, just some steps far away. 

He always followed the same routine when he came to the bus

Mike was 24 years old. He lived in a small rented room, in a house close to the ramp. It was the only one ramp in the whole town. So Mike was very happy because he was a great tricky cyclist. Except cycling, Mike liked to do only two things: to paint the pictures and to ride a bicycle. But he gave up painting and dedicated all his free time to professional cycling.

Whenever he was training, everyone was watching at him with enthusiasm. Mike liked to do all those tricks in front of people. He was

Who You Gonna Call? … Stress Buster!

I confess I love gardening. I don’t have a lavish space as big as a park to manage. What I have is an itsy bitsy garden at home where most of my plants are in containers. It is true what other people say that ‘if there’s a will, there’s a way’. It applies to gardening as well. It’s because if you’re a plant lover, you tend to find or search for facts to make your plants thrive and survive regardless of the space and location you have.

Gardening is not just a hobby. I experienced the benefits of i

Dear MyEC members.

The following sentences are not only my participation on the test but also my sincere belief.
I wanted not only take part in Onee-chan's challenge but also use the grammar rules correctly.


Women are not only wives, daughters and mothers, but also personalities and single individuals.

Women should not only think about their appearance but also cultivate their mental education.

Men should not only ask for being served but also help themselves.

Children should not only learn but also

Who can have love
It is only a game of letters-----l o v e.

Yes, it's love when you
not only have a sensitive heart
but also, be devoted to love.

Yes, it's love when you
not only are trustworthy
but also have trust in love.

Yes, it's love when
not only do you shine with these qualities
you also show others the path to love.

But is it that easy to find love?

Dear EC friends!

Today I will not only write a grammar rule based blog but also  give you a necessary information! Please note that, It is not only an information but also something that we should remember.

But, see now not only have I allergy problem but also can not sleep properly due to itching! Funny...ha? So, I stopped using it. Maybe

Good morning, dear Learners and Teachers, Newbies and Seniors. ^_^

How are you today? I hope you’re pretty well. Have you learned new grammar or memorized new vocabulary today? How great to see there are many games these days. I'm sure it will enrich our vocabulary. :))

To boost our English writing skill, I'd like to invite you to practice writing with grammar “not only…but also...”. I’m sure most of you already know this. It is simple just to say "you're beautiful and smart", but this 'not only..

WHY?

The pain and sorrow was in my fate
Would I complain-----why?
I didn't know how to live
Would I ask for life-----why?
When finally there was separation
Would I ask your company-----why?
You sank the boat of my love
Would I swim alone-----why?
I know you would not wipe my tears
Would I cry-----why?
She didn't turn to see me
Would I wave-----Why

I Gave Up Love

Who says that I can not live without you,

can’t bear this pain of separation?

I cried a lot when you’re gone

and passed sleepless nights,

but mind you, if you come back,

you will find me changed

and you will be disappointed. 

You know why?

Listen to me carefully,

I have broken the old tradition of ‘lovers’,

I have given up “love”
