"Visit to the Khuju Lhakhang...."

Image
On the 26 th of October (Saturday), it was one of the most important and religious day. It was the descending day of the Buddha Gautama from the nirvana to the earth for every living being on this earth. On this most important day, me and my friends decided to visit the Lhakhang on the top of the mountain peak where most of the people don’t go, thinking that it is very tough to reach their. But I believe that the more u suffer the more you get the blessing so we decided to go there.   We were nine in total and we started our journey at 8:00 AM from the Wangdue Bridge. There was a rough road till the Lhakhang but it was too twisted and too long, so we took the short-cut and we had no definite path, we rush from the middle of the blue pine jungle and reached at a beautiful resting place at half way to the Lhakhang from where we could see the whole Wangdue views. We took a long rest their and had a refreshment also.   We got up again and finally reached at our destiny a

"Club exhibition..."

We had a club exhibition conducted today in our school to execute what the club has done in the series of one year. Every club has to show their products of one year to the audience and explain how they have made and how it is useful in the daily life. The entire club has shown their product materials beautifully to the audience. All the club masters were also equally involved in pasting their work to the guest especially our club master Mr. PaSSu Tshering which I believe was a very impressive sign in the eye of the guest and also to the audience. The guest and the school administration were very happy by looking at the work of club members and also the master. The programme was a very successful one with the help of all the teachers, school administration and the individual club. I am the member of e-learning club and we have created an offline web page where we have maintained all the work that we have done in term of one year. We have maintained all the club members’ blogs,

"Appointment of New Councillors in BHSS..."

From today on-wards all the responsibilities of the captains are to be performed by the newly appointed captains till the end of academic year 2014 as respective captains. The main purpose of electing the new captains by the school administration starting from this year in advance is to give more time to study for the old captains who are from class xii as they have to attain the board examination and it is their life deciding point. The school administration is so thankful to all the old captains for their earnest efforts and contribution for the well-being of the school till now starting from the academic year 2013. The school administration is giving away the responsibilities of captains to the newly appointed captains as soon as possible so that they could at

"Result of the captainship election"

Image
highest votes (boys) highest votes (girls) well, today top 18s were announced during the assembly. I was very embarrassed when I heard my number of votes, it was too low to my expectation and with the ratio of total voters. I didn't expect too much but at least little more than that . But luckily i am selected in top 18s, i would be serving as one of the house captain. Among the boys Tshering Wangchuck from 11 com got the highest votes and from the girls Dawa Dema  from 11com got the highest votes. And about the lowest, i don't want share because it is too embarrassing. The school captain is still not finalized, probably they will discuss today and announce tomorrow.                                                                                                                           D.K Thulung Rai                                                                                                                                     

Captainship election for 2014 in BHSS

Image
Today we had the captainship election where we were the VIPs as we are the main candidates. I felt really honored and privilege to be one of them. At the morning we gave our speech to all the Bajo-family sharing our plans and our promises for the well-being of our school and all the students. I thought someone will be calling our names and according that to we have to go in the front to give the speech. Last time when they were announcing the nominee’s names, mine was at the middle that time, I thought we will be following that sequence, so I was relaxingly standing at the side of all the boys but suddenly, present school captain ( Bumika Tamang ) announced “we will start our speech from that side..!” and she was looking at me, I was once shocked when I heard that. I went up to the podium and gave my speech in dzongkha niggchang (pure dzongkha) for two minutes as we are given only two minutes to share our manifestoes and ask for votes. In total, we were 29 candidates out

"The Day of My Dirty Tego"

Image
I t was fine and beautiful Monday morning. I curled under the blanket; I languidly looked around the room. My cupboard was open and I could see all the dishevelled clothes, at the bottom my shoes, on the top of one other like a pyramid. My roommate had neatly folded his blankets and left early. I had no first period so I’d slept a little longer. I got up and washed. The hostel was silent except for few echoes from the floors above. As it was the first day of a week, I looked for a clean gho , there was none. ‘God! I don’t have a single clean gho?’ I took one, which was better than the rest. With tego and stocking, it was the same story. ‘How could I forget to wash them?’ The previous day, supposedly laundry day, I’d gone for a picnic. ‘If only I’d washed them little by little.’ But that’s what the Centre of life is (I’if’e).’ With this frustration, I went to a friend’s room and, as luck would have it, the door was locked. There was no one else I could ask help f

Nominated from 11 sci (boys)                        Today in our school ( Bajothanghss) , we around 22 students from 11 th standard were nominated for the captainship  school captains, house captain and etc.. for the next year 2014. This system is introduced for the first time in our school where captains for the coming year are elected in advance. This system is initiated and coordinated by the Democracy club. Madam Sangay Lhaden democracy club master was clicking and taking our half photos so that the students can vote for us looking at our pictures. The rule is whoever gets the highest votes from the students will be firstly elected as the school captains one for boys and one for girls and house captains will be elected as per the votes range. Nominated from 11 sci (girls)                                 And one very fascinating thing was that, madam was telling us that we have to give speech in the assembly to ask votes from the students. It’s like the election

My award for Volunteering...

Image
This is in-continuation with my last post about the Tour of the Dragon (cycle race) that was held on 7 th of September 2013. On the day before that our sir Mr. Ugyen Tshering was searching for around 20 volunteer students to cheer up the riders on their way. He came to our class and talk about that and I was very excited about that and without thinking anything, my friend Kinley Penjor and I volunteered for that, forgetting about the classes that we will be missing and weather condition on that day. To be true I didn't expect anything from BOC for this volunteer work, I just wanted to volunteer to appreciate the riders who are able to complete 268 km in a single day which I cannot imagine of doing at all, by simply cheering up for their efforts and strength. And this tour was world’s tough fest one day mountain ride. When we volunteer for something we should not expect something in return, if you expect something than that’s not a volunteer.  If you volunteer with yo

Wangdue Tshechu 2013

Image
  Today, after a long time I went to visit the Wangdue Tshechu. I thought there would be only few peoples in the ground as compared to that of in the dzong but when I reached there, I could see many peoples in the ground but all were playing mela and people were all busy in their own business. I could see only few peoples actually watching the Tshechu and they were all grandfathers and grandmothers and very few younger ones. Few years back when Wangdue Tshechu used to be celebrated in the dzong, all the peoples especially girls used to do make starting from their head to toe with all the expensive ornaments and dresses on their body but unfortunately we lost our Wangdue dzong few years back and it is yet to be reconstructed. so, that is why Wangdue Tshechu is celebrated in the military ground and I could feel that there is no charm like there used to be in the dzong. I think we have to celebrate the Wangdue Tshechu in the ground for few years more again till the dzong is fully
