The Country Girl's Diary...

Ladies and gentlemen dressed in their best attire, a huge curve of smile on everyone’s face just reminded that the nation is celebrating a big and historic day. The 11 th  of November 2015, the 60 th  birth anniversary of our beloved Drugyal Zhipa will remain as one undying and cherishable moments of each and every Bhutanese. As the Nation celebrated the day, we came forward with our simple floral designing and product development exhibition. That was the best effort an agriculturalist student can come up for such a big day. The exhibition was a part of our module which carries mark, yet never for a moment had we thought of the scores. Everyone just gave out their best dedication and pure sincerity to mark the special day. Despite a hustle bustle month of preparation and sleepless nights, the result was worth the hard work we have put in. The exhibition dedicated to our beloved king was added with beautiful colors of flowers and plants. Each group came up with...

For the last two months, I have walked along this path way. The First few days were like oh! My god!  I hate walking on this way. The fifteen minute walk from my hostel to classroom can make you fall in love with nature. The smell of the pine trees, walking under the shades, birds singing, the chill breeze of Wangdue brushing up your cheeks, everything is natural. Today I have choose  to walk this way at least once a day. The beautiful prayer flags swings just above your head. On a fine sunny day, the blue sky adds color to this beautiful foot path. Happiness is walking along this foot path. Every-time i walk this way, i  fall in love with the nature and beauty within this site. 

Lately I had been too much involved with an assignment where I had to click flower pictures and identify them. For a moment I felt like I was living my childhood days where I and my friends used to collect flowers and count who among us has the highest and the most beautiful flower. In the process of this beautiful assignment I realized my weakness with flowers; I hardly know the names of flowers exc luding the common ones and sometime it is a shame to call yourself an agriculturalist. Every day, as we live by, we get to have the glance of beautiful flowers yet never bother to appreciate the beauty. I was one among it. I have come across many eye pleasing and heart touching flowers yet I never took a time to capture a click. Just a week ago, I was in a rush for my assignment and went across from places to places looking for flowers.  I got few clicks and I immensely fell in love with flowers. Sometime a picture can make someones hard day a brighter one, yes! It did to me....

It had been more than five days tuning to human value workshop and in all these days we were taken into the world of human value. The word human value had been revolving around me for the last few days. What is human value??...  A Simple question that will make a person go speechless for a moment, yet it is an interesting topic to discuss and boggle our mind at times. Though human value isn’t a new to me yet going into deep was educative and informative. Here are few points from the last lesson that really took my mind away. Living your own life: So far this is one of the best lessons I have learnt. Did you ever realize that you are living others life. If you deeply focused on your thought and think over, never for a moment you have lived your life. In this fast developing country of ours, everything has become so judgmental and people are too sensitive. With such surrounding, everyone is bothered in one or another way. We don’t find walking and sitting alone comfortable; why...

I looked around and saw somebody greeting me with a meek smile from a distance. I sit there gazing at the unknown stranger sitting still. A thin fog appeared in- between, dimming the view of the stranger. Everything became vague and found myself lost in the thick smog. I was breathing hard among the thick smoke, and all I wanted was to get out of there. The feel of cold water under my feet helped me to find the way. The small spring made its way in-front of me. After an hour of struggle I was out of that area, yet my eyes were still fixed on that place. The smile and the fuzzy figure of the guy still remained vivid in my mind. Who could be he? The way he smiled captured my heart. A smile can melt someone’s heart, true! Be it a fake smile or a smile from the heart. I never had a thought what his smile was up to. All in all, I was mesmerized by that meek smile, which made me and my day smile. My day went with that thought of the smile, possibly a guy ...

Look around and you will find yourself gazing at the beautiful peach flowers. The feel of warm spring breeze against your face, people in sleeveless shirts and shorts, and a break for your Uniqlo jackets, finally spring is here .Today the first day of spring 2015. The eye pleasing peach flowers dominates the start of the season. The light shower washes away the dust that winter has left. Spring comes with happiness, love and freshness. As I celebrate my birthday at the start of the season, the season will always shower me with immense love and luck. I always had fond memories with the season. Spring, the time for our farmers to go back in the field. Being an agriculturalist, spring is a special season. Everything can wait but not agriculture. Yes! Spring is for us. Here in the east farmers are keenly sowing Corn and back in the western part of our country the summer vegetable nursery are right on the track. Spring is the season for us to work with the soil and enjoy the beauty ...

Just the other day, my friend was reminding me that having a gallstone has become more like a fashion these days. You should be happy that you got it on the right time. Yeah! I am Happy that I realized it just on my birthday. I am not sick, I don’t feel any pain, I still have my good appetite. All I hated during the past week was the medicine that I took. As prescribed by the surgeon, I took pain killer ibuprofen after each meal for two consecutive days. The reaction after taking that medicine took me to hell. Never in my life had I been unhappy and gloomy. The cheerful world within me vanished after the third ibuprofen I took. For the past four days all I  did was sleep, sleep and sleep. The chatty me has finally turned dumb. I hated talking and found everything too boring. For a moment I thought boredom kidnapped me. I did my best to come out of that state yet every time I try to do something different, I started getting pissed off. Things  weren't  in my hand. I...
