*The story of my exam week*

I talk to myself every night; The time is 2 AM ~ tick tock tick tock~ it doesn't stop while I plan ~ So I decide, I am waking up at 9 and I count the hours with my fingers and disagree ~ that's just 7 hours;  OK 10 AM it is then. And in the next 10 minutes I am in my dreamland. Next day at 11 (since I always wake up an hour after the alarm) I start counting hours again, for study - OK 10 hours since I have nothing else to do. I take a shower, look at the time again, it's 12:16; I want it to be 12:30, so I watch some videos or listen to some music (which appears extraordinarily interesting around this time) which normally doesn't end at 12:30 and then I have to wait for the next round number; 1.  So many silly things happen in between ~ I take a nap, I eat more than three meals a day; I clean my nails, my ears; a little pain here and a little pain there; I see an extra growth of my eye brow, I look in the mirror to remove it; end up removing my blackhead...

~My Hero ~ “The Great Fourth” (An Essay)

I cannot think of any better and more deserving person to write on this topic at this particular time. The kingdom of Bhutan recently completed the festivity of the 60th Birth Anniversary of her Fourth King, His Majesty Jigme Singye Wangchuk. The entire year of 2015 was dedicated to celebrate the prosperous reign of the dynamic, farsighted and a selfless leader. The king, who has given his all for his country and his people, led a war so that his people are safe and gave up his power so that his people remain empowered; such is my king , such is my hero . His Majesty Jigme Singye Wangchuck popularly known as “The Great Fourth” or "The Father of the Nation” was born on 11th November , 1955 corresponding to the Wood Female Sheep year of the Lunar Calendar to their Majesties King Jigme Dorji Wangchuck and Ashi Kesang Choden Wangchuck. We, Bhutanese, believe that his birth was a realization of a religious prophesy which was declared more than three centuries ago; a sacred reinca...

Essay For Same Sex Marriage

Same sex-marriage is one of the most controversial and sensitive issues of recent times. According to the U.S Legal, Inc., “ same-sex marriage also known as gay marriage or homosexual marriage is a ceremonial union of two people of the same sex; marriage or marriage-like relationship between two women or two men.” Although reports indicated that as of June 2015, some 21 countries have legalized same-sex marriage nationwide , there are still m any countries debating over this issue explained Waxman (2015). Millions of people still think that gay people have no right and should never be allowed to be legally recognized in marriage. Amongst many, the main argument placed by these millions of people who oppose the legalization of same sex-marriage is the belief that couples of the same sex getting married would redefine the meaning of marriage, thus harming the institution of traditional marriage.      However, there are o thers who believe that gays are just ...

Bloggers Meet Venue: IBEST DAY: Wednesday (June 24, 2015)   Bloggers of Bhutan :) Pic Courtesy - Rima Reyka  My first one, thrilled but equally nervous, I accepted the request of an excellent blogger friend, Riku to attend the meet on face book. If not for anything, I thought I would get to drink with people with at least one common interest of reading and writing. :P On a serious note, I couldn't afford to miss it at all,   it was an opportunity to meet amazing people whom I will categorize into three here: 1.   Great people whose writings I have been following; 2. People like me who just write when time permits/emotions flow; 3. young aspiring bloggers who would like to take up blogging seriously. No matter how hard I tried, even after giving myself some confidence pills, I really couldn't think of facing the crowd alone, so I dragged my sister along, agreeing with her blackmailing of, "you will have to listen to whatever I say from...
