The existence of gadgets inevitably affects our life, especially our eyes. Many people now work with gadgets almost all the time without having enough rest for eyes. Myopia or hypermetropia is not a problem anymore since the existence of concave-convex lens for those eyes disruption. But, who could hold the pain or headache when one feels so tired on eyes?

I, myself, have no eye problem. But sometimes, I need to work with laptop all the time for some days. I got some problems for some moments. Th

Let's add some more points!

I have found, sometimes, even here  we also like to tease people, we like to spend our time saying bad things or finding other's week points. But, why? We are human being. We have many limitations in terms of thinking, executing any works and so on. EC is a great place not only for practicing English language and to learn but also we can use this site to be more humane. How?

We may practice speaking positive things.

We can try to show more tolerance!

We may start thinking every human being is good,

Neither of my family members wanted to go shopping with me, so I decided to go alone. I came up downtown when I run into my best friend.
Happy to see me, she said. "I did not expect to see you. That's good to me because neither shopping nor sitting at a restaurant is what I like to do alone."
"Yes, I don't like either, but I must go shopping because my fashion style needs changing," I replied.
We came to a narrow alley. There were shops with women fashion on either side.
My friend asked, "The

Blog Challenge-Either/neither/neither nor

 This year neither I nor my dearest hubby was  aware about upcoming Valentine's! How come? Maybe we are focused on another important issue. But, neither of us is running out of LOVE, be sure! lol

So, what to do? I think, I am going to surprise him by a nice gift though a tight hug will be enough to make him happy! And, it is also true he tends to think gift is not that much important,  I don't, either/ neither do I. Then, what is important?  In our thinking, important is understanding, important

A Blog Challenge: NEITHER/EITHER

Well, when I am up to something, I usually realize my ideas. So, here we are with one more piece of English grammar.

Speaking about our everyday life, business, science and many other things, we often want to make a statement about TWO people, ideas, options at the same time or to connect two alternatives in one sentence. Fortunately, we don’t have to reinvent a wheel as we have all necessary ” tools”  in English grammar. These are words NEITHER/EITHER. Let’s start with EITHER.

EITHER means one or

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

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

Dear All Friends, Hope everything is well with you.

Let me share something that impressed me about parents. We all know that we can't choose which two persons would be our parents. Sometimes, we don't have the same thought or we don't like some of their characters or decisions. However, parents are the first two persons that closest to us. Moreover, if they raised us with patience and affection. Here, I want to share the best things I learnt from them.

Chill Out

By Michelle 

Sometimes life's a joke so we better chill out

We need to relax and forget the doubts

For sometimes things don't really go in place

But that doesn't mean our life's a waste

There are times we get tired, so we think of giving up

Hey! It's not the end you just have to chill out

Come on, cheers, raise your cup

At the end of the day things will work out

Challenge yourself to tame your mind

After all life could also be so kind

If only you think it is to you

Then things will be easy for othe
