    Dear Mousetrap,
    At first, i wanna tell you that this is an Englis club which provides us a forum for people who wanna have a dandy level in English. But, to become an expert at English in an unindigenous English speaking country is not easy. If one want to achieve his target, he must spend lots of time for it, and much more than time only. So dont blame at me if I am writing some boring articles. I need your helps to find my mistakes and give me your ideas, your experiences in using words, sentences, idioms and so on... The process of transfering our viewpoints, our shortages will makes us become familiar with english. Languages, mentioned as a tool of communicating between us human being is native for everyone, but we have to learn how to use them. This is also the process of discovering ourselves. But beyond a language is a culture, they relate with each other by historical reasons. To have insights to a language, we must have wide and deep understandings about the culture associated. I've showed my opinions. Some of you, who has outstanding skills in English could find it is ridiculous. You can laugh at me if you think the above speech has showed silly thoughts. But, I dont deceive you, my dear friends.

    I will go with thee, my fellow

    Today, i wanna tell you a famous story, Romeo and Juliette. This is a brief tale that my teacher of English gave me yesterday, the Valentine day.
    Romeo met Juliette at a party one night and they were in love together at the first sight. After the party, he went to her house but he was afraid of her family so he waited under the balcony until she appeared. They spent that night together and the next day they got married. Their wedding ceremony is a secret because their families are enemies. Some days later, the man had a fight and he killed the woman's cousin anf he had to leave the city immidiately. The woman wanted to be with her husband so she made a plan, dhe pretended to be death and from her family's tomb, she could escape with her lover. She sent a message to her husband but he didn't receive the message because the messager couldn't find him. When he arrived to her family's tomb, he think she is death so he killed himself. After waking up, the woman saw her husband had died, so she killed herself.
    Finally, because of their children's dead, the two families to be in peace. I think in the valentine's day, reading a love story , especially a pathetic love story is meaningful. Did you kiss your darling this morning? Did you give someone a bouquet of flowers yesterday? Do you have any special plans after reading this article?

    Always in the state of being a silly chicken. I love the way you are, my friends.

    Hey, this is a new article
    Family
    The tra***ional imageof the family in many countries of a stable family unit consisting of a married couple and two or more children. As a result of the social changes and changes in legislation in recent years , the majority of families no longer conform to this image. Family size is decreasing and the average number of children per family is less than two. Many couple cohabit without being married, and the stigma that used to be associated with illegitimacy is desappearing. The trend towards early marriage that was evident in the 1960s has been reversed. The everage age for people marrying for the first time is 26 for men and 24 for women.
    Changes in legislation have made it easier to obtain a divorce . About one in three marriages in Britain and one in two in the USA end in divorce. Many people marry again after divorce so that a high proportion of children live with their step_parent. The proportion of families led by a single parent , normally the mother , has also increased.
    People often move to different parts of the country to work, so that many children have little contact with their grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins except at family reunions often held tra***ionally at Christmas. Students often leave home when they go to university and people may leave home to find work from the age of 16. People may marry at 16 with their parents' consent and at 18 without it.
    It is usual for young people to movw away from home once they are adult, and many young single people live alone, as do many ritired people.
    Most parents encourage their children to become independent and the relationship between parents and children is more relaxed than in the past. father often play a greater part in the care and upbringing of children, reflecting the change in the respective roles of both parents as more mother work outside the home.
    ho` ho`, moi chep dc day'

    A brief history of a boy wonder
    My name is Ben and I was born in San Francisco, Califonia but I was brought up in the city of Berkely. I was named after my grandfather. I am an only child because I was " a little devil" and my parents ran out of patience and broke down into tears and got down on their knees and prayed to God that they wouldn't have anymore " little devils" to look after and their prayers were answered.
    My early years were mostly spent getting into trouble and playing sports, especially baseball, which I took to with passion. But when I went to university I turn over a new leaf and settled down. I decided to study English literature because I have always loved to read and write and it is also good degree to have if you want to be a teacher. As I did.
    So why did I decide to be a teacher? One reason is the influence of my family. My mother, an aunt, and two cousins are all teachers and I guess their passion for their profession rubbed off on me. I really love my job excepr when students tune me out or say, " Finished", or " Your tie is urgly, please take it off"
    So how would I describe myself? Well, in some ways I take after my father because I am handsome, intelligent, charming, and strong just like him. But in some ways I am like my mother because we both like telling people what to do and enjoy hanging out with friends. I get on with both of them very well and look up to them not only because of what they did for me as parents but who they are as people.
    Anyway, after teaching ESL in San Francisco after graduation I decided to set off for Hanoi to teach English. I have been here over a year already and am looking forward to teaching hare for a long time.
    Het' rui` a.

    Always in the state of being a silly chicken. I love the way you are, my friends.

    Desiderata,
    Here is a text that i've just leart by heart, i think it is meaningful.
    Go placidly amid the noise and haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence. As far as possible without surrender be on good terms with all persons. Speak your truth quietly and clearly and listen to others, even the dull and ignorant: they too have their story. Avoid loud and aggressive persons, they are vexations to the spirit. If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain and bitter. For always there will be greater and lesser person than yourself.
    Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans.Keep interested in your own career however humble; it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time. Excercise caution in your business affairs; for the world is full of trickery. But let this not blind you to what virtue there is. Many persons strive for high ideals and everywhere life is full of heroism. Be yourself. Especially do not feign affection. Neither be cynical about love, for in the face of all ari***y and disenchantment , it is perennial as the grass . Take kindly the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth. Nurture the strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune. But do not distress yourself with immaginings. Many fears are born of fatigue and lonliness . Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself. You are a child of the universe, no less than the trees and the stars, you have a right to be here. And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should. Therefore be at peace with God, whatever you conceive Him to be; and whatever you labors and aspirations, in the noisy confusions of life keep peace with your soul. With all its sham and drudgery and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be careful. Strive to be happy.

    Part time job of student nowadays !
    I and my friends have just finished a small project reasearching students' extra_curiculum activities. And the result seems to be quite interesting. Some forty seven percent has part time job. The most common is tutor, occpied 52%, assistant 27% and other job 21% . So why the students have to find a part time job? A number of them comes from families having below_average incomes, some wants to be independent from their parents, and some for exprerience and hobby. Student often spends three hours a day earning money in average. The hardest one spend 10 hours !!!, and the lowest one a day.
    Now we turn to tutoring, nearly everyone can find a job of tutoring via his/her friends, his/her families or centers. How much those tutors receive each lecture? If your pupil is in premary or secondary school, you have 25.000 VND for each, and 30.000 or little more if him/her in high school. But that's for common one. In some cases, incoming money maybe rises sharply to 50 or even 100.000 VND in exam_preparing periods.
    Tutors ! Where they come from? The two largest ones is HUT and HNU, others occupied a much lesser force.
    For assistant and other jobs, the income varies from 150.000VND to 1.500.000VND per month, the exception is not included. And oftenly economic, commercial, ... students do these works.
