Is your country mountainous or is it as flat as a pancake? Funny question, right? However, believe it or not there exist countries with just a few small hills such as Kuwait, Belarus, Latvia or Gambia. As I am the mountain lover, I am lucky my country is one of the mountainous ones because I do love hiking and walking in the nature, especially in the forests of the mountains, which I find very relaxing and refreshing.. luckily I don't have to travel so far away as just 30 km from my place (almos

As summer approaches, English teachers in China are looking for new and exciting things to do with their time off. Not everyone has full weekends to take trips out of the city (as some people work weekends at training centers or have private lessons to attend to), so here’s a suggestion for a trip that will make you feel like you’ve left the busy city bustle behind while traveling along the convenience of the Shenzhen metro.

The Dafen Oil Painting Village is a gated community which marks its entr

My ESL career started with all my plans spinning out of control, I was heading out to the world looking for my calling and at the time I believed that to be marketing for automotive manufacturers.

At this point in my life I thought I knew three things about myself. I wanted to work with cars, I was driven to do that come hell or high-water, and I was going to do it all in Australia. I was wrong on all three counts. In my quest for opportunities in the automotive world I ended up in Thailand and w

For some days I have been wondering to find out whether I have changed a bit than before! I guessed it as now I like to talk and along with it  feel comfortable to communicate (actually I communicate by writing) with my net based friends than some of my surrounding people. How about you? No, I still like to talk, spend time with my family and who I really care and like, i,e, with my good relatives, friends ( though they are only two and live in abroad!)neighbors, my house staff.

  Moderator Onee Chan is my friend. She was rewarded that position by her hard work. We all respect and love her. We all commented on her picture with her friend. Her cute and lovely slimness was noted by one of the members of the club. Many of her blogs and pictures were featured by her colleagues. My Indonesian language is very poor. I hope she helps me regarding that matter. Her page was visited many times by different members. I visit her page to read or see the se

It is raining outside. I love smell of the rain. I love its atmosphere which makes me drowsy. I'm sitting down. I'm thinking. I'm reminiscing the memories that had gone away. I'm smiling and pensiving. Now I know, everything is just for temporary. Just like the rain... I can't even hold up a drop of the rain.

There are more than 7 billions people over the world. Can you imagine where they come from? Of course, they come from an uterus of mother. Since we were living in mother's uterus, it means that we need someone who not only feed us but love us. A love of a mother is so precious. We keep growing all the time. We meet new people and get new experiences in life. We can distinguish what is better or worse for our life. We choose our inner circle. And in some circumstances, we feel alone. We feel nobo

Hi, ladies and gentlemen! Here is the breaking news on our EC channel! Stay with us!

After returning to EC megalopolis, one of our favorite teachers suddenly changed his traditional orientation and started going nuts! His traditional learning blogs about idioms, phrasal verbs and grammar have been replaced by his sarcastic blogs deriding learners’ mistakes. He must have rested his brains somewhere in the jungle of the blunders he faces every day! He writes down all your mistakes in a long hand on

Some days ago, I was reading a book when a friend called me up via Skype.

My friend is a Canadian, He's a forty-five years old man with German roots from his grandparents. I know, he misses Germany because he hadn't been here for many years. He has still relatives in Germany. He told me to come in the next spring when Germany is more beautiful than in other seasons of the year.

My friend is a musician and poet. He writes and composes the own songs. Playing the guitar and singing is his life.

One fine morning, something appeared out of nowhere.

Zombies… It sounds disgusting, yet they’re swarming in numbers. They’re everywhere!

Always ready to feast and devour the brain of weak people.

You’re like them, a zombie. The fakest zombie I’ve ever known.

Whatever mask you wear, your rotten flesh speaks for itself.

The foul smell in your veins succumbed me and I almost felt helpless.

As if I’m trapped and couldn’t breathe.

You spread insults and gossips like wildfires and let others believe with yo

You are always on my mind.

Though my body is resting,

but still my mind is working.

I think I saw you a long time

I am begging you,

Please let me kiss you.

Hug me tight, don’t let me go.

I am not staying for a long time

I know you aren’t mine.

You ask me something with astonishments

You think always that I can’t.

I answered you; it’s a plea

Just please care to listen.

And when you speak

You can’t say those words

I know I am bored,

Senbazuru is made from a thousand Origami(colored paper for folding) cranes bundling by string. By making it, there is the popular belief it brings longevity and healing from disease, because the crane is the symbol of longevity. So it is sometimes sent to the hospital patients.

And it is also the symbol of peace. Because it was made by Sasaki Sadako who hoped to lengthen her life. She is a woman who suffered from the radiation effects of atomic bomb on Hiroshima and died from atomic bomb sicknes

Some things just happen. Life doesn't ask us, what we want because life actually doesn't care. What counts is our attitude and decissions we make. They are like a huge arrow, which shows us the direction. No matter if we choose easy or complicated way - eventually we end up somewhere. All the slaps and backstabs are without doubt painful but after all... going through the burning hell makes us much more resistant. Unscounsciously we push ourself one level higher because we all long for being our

It has been 365 days since her birthday in last year

Many things had happened since that day

She was just a little innocent cheerful girl

Until one day, a big problem came to hit her life

She was very shocked, upset, and miserable 

She thought that she had lost her life

She locked herself in a secret chamber within a few months

No one could see her tears and anger

She acted so insane

No one knew what happened to her

The sunbeam came into the chamber

She stared and took a deep breath 

While she said to herse

MEGAEC City had been covered by a huge wave of atrocities this weekend. Many dead discussions were dug from the discussion cemetery. Many people were stressed out because their mistakes had been pointed in a rude way. Panic began in the city. Many reports were written to the police department. That is why Special Agent Roman Squirrel (not clumsy one) had been appointed in order to investigate this case.

The traces of a cat claws were spotted at the crime scenes. Also some parts of the black hair

Fake… Yes, that’s what you are.

You pretend you’re the most interesting person in the world.

You speak as if everybody is interested in your stories.

But in reality, you’re a pain in the neck.

You mock weak people because you think you’re untouchable.

Haven’t you remembered when you mocked me in front of your friends

just because I’m different?

That as if I could barely hear the unpleasant words you’ve said.

I can still vividly remember each of them in case you’ve forgotten.

You stabbed people behind t

I read Onee’s comment she posted on her own recent blog addressing to me, she commented: ““C'mon.... You just need to make a news report. How about a news report with the theme of 'LOVE', this is my personal challenge to you. I know you're expert in this matter.”

Since then I was thinking what to do, I tried to recall my imagination, tried to knit a scenario based on love.  There were number of thoughts, number of faces before me coming out of my subconscious to conscious, asking, “write about m
