Photo: Mr. sancha rai Should I say – are we done with the resolution we made in the beginning? – Of-course,  'yes' . Well, this is my second year of teaching service in zhemgang higher secondary school soon after RCSC appointed me in 2013. Truly for me - this place is heaven on earth and a pioneering plat form, where I got to learn valuable lessons – first to learn then to teach, encountering senior friends well experienced on the field, meeting smart and encouraging students each year, writing when I go into extraordinary state - since, I believe, writing is all about energy, thinking, patience and so on… Perhaps, at this moment - I’m extremely happy to be blessed with smart and hardworking students (Class XII Science A students). Thus, in the very beginning of the year – class XII science A and I’d genuinely taken a sincere oath to do best work in all areas (both academics and non-academics) and we’d as we've promised and said. We didn't let g...

Source: Google My grand-parents told me - my parents were died in a car accident. I was then survived by them. When  inquired  on the accident, only they know was over-speeding’. Thus, this is the end of story.  I was a boy.  I always assured myself not so loved child like others. But, truly I thanked them for replacing my biological parents. So, hopefully their un-ending love and care towards me all these days would remain as far as my life continues.  ‘Their love truly means so much for my survival’ When I could realize – I was already attending high school. I always wanted to find the real lost of my parents. Perhaps, over-speeding alone is not the end. - "Because they are my life, source of living today. They mean my world more than anybody else". Then, slowly I started to find the real demised of my parents. Yes, I must call this a - "lost always and I know to any best effort I won’t get back my parents". But, still I am determined to find...

Much awaited count-down has finally come to its ending – ending with honours. Time to reap what one had seeded throughout the year. It’s nothing less than measuring each subject more wisely. And it is decided by so call  EXAM . It is not un-usual happenings for schools and students all over the globe. Since, exam is something that comes and goes always. But, one thing is certain that - its outcome would remain behind for all times. “Whether one to remain in the same grade or promoted to higher grade”. And it totally lies in the hand of individuals. Exam really administers ones performance and understanding level of different subjects learned as a student. Moreover - year-end exam decides passed or failed merit. "I must say merit for change". If one fails then, work of 365 days would go much in futile and that is the time one needed to rewind the clock more watchfully. At the same time, failing an exam would lay down many things – one not being cl...

This year is like no other years in my life. I can’t recall every bits and pieces of happenings. But, I could remember some events for certain reasons. In a way, some of the events had taught me prudent lesson and some have disappointed me. While, few still on the progress. 2014. I am proud to declare –  it’s my second year into teaching and learning world. So this year - I was fully loaded with lots of task. Class-teacher cum subject tutor for science students. Remembering their names and dealing with different  behaviors  is yet another challenge I have faced. We have respected each other and learned all together. We understood each other’s problems; we have learned new knowledge putting it midst. ‘ We stand for each other is our motto’ .  Indeed, this year has spread my wings into writing world.  While, that can best reflect my nature. In a way, I may not be forgotten.   Finally, I made my dream come true and made a lasting sto...

His majesty - 4th king of Bhutan "I wish our great king a happy birthday and long live on this special occasion". My King – you've born in times of need for every Bhutanese. We always treasure your birth so special. As always you've shown the seeds of right kinds in the Bhutanese soil. You've reserved this land far and wide. You've unified this land so much. You've made this land a heavenly place to live for generation after generation and finally you've made the history of this country by crowning as the world youngest king at the age of seventeenth and that is the 'History For World'. We owe your leadership more than the governance of great scientists, inventors and philosophers. Truly, you've moved this country wiser than any greatest people in the history of Bhutan.   As a country we are not economically rich. But, I can proudly say we're richer with good human values. We're living completely in serene, pe...

Dear father, Source: Google.com Hope this sweet letter of mine may find you in good health. I always assumed you and mother to be fine and doing all great things. How is other doing at home? Hope to catch them in fine conditions. I am writing this letter for you since, last few days - I couldn’t dream well about you and mother. So, for the stated reasons - I'm sending this letter to make you feel that I'm missing you and mother so much. I always assume myself to break and level the mountains between you two and myself. So, that I could see and feel you all days. I could reach you any time and talk to you face to face rather than with modern technology.  Father, it never suffices my missing you and mother simply by talking in phone. But, anyway for my own survival I've left home for good reasons and you know it better than anyone to me. Every time I think of you two and recollect memories of childhood and your sufferings in bringing me up to th...

The year is coming to its halt. I have many undone work on my table to complete. The work is pressing me so much and sometimes life goes like that of a busy broker without knowing what is happening next to me. Perhaps, day’s to cherish entirely. Being a class-adviser, I am accountable for all activities in the class. So, to this fact on 4 th evening, my class had organized a special get - together session. I must say, it's the good bye farewell. Source:     Sancha Rai At around 5:30PM, my-self with other subject’s teachers headed toward the hall with much tangled mind. They welcomed us sincerely and to our surprise my class-monitor came up to me with a gift and handed it to me with few words of gratefulness. In fact, I was totally surprised to receive the gift. Yet, for good reasons - I have accepted with good heart. It really touched my heart and it reminded my school days as student. Now, I became their guru, adviser and a tutor. Anyway, thank you for the gi...

I am neither a skilled player nor a coach.  But, I felt the need of games and sports in school is one of the important elements for learning. When million can have handsome living through games, why can’t we?   Therefore, I felt the need for games and sports in every school is most.   I feel there are many reasons behind learning games and sports in school. It normally brings positive behavioral change of the student. Since, gaming is all about having good behavior and good thought process. It enhances the spirit of team work. Since, different games involve different skilled person like somebody verse in rules and regulation, resources, trainer and referee.  But, at the same time we also came across many of our parents going against playing games because they feel it’s the waste of time without looking into the better side of it. And to be frank they didn’t feel the positive learning through games and sports. Learning of subjects comes in differ...
